How to use

Ingredients

  • Roasted peanuts
  • Salt
  • (A little sugar/veg oil)

Instructions

  1. [Usage Secret]
  2. [Liangmian Secret Flavor] Blend a little of this into 'Zhima Jiang' (sesame paste) for Liangmian sauce (some shops do half-and-half). Yields violent richness and savoriness impossible with sesame alone, making the flavor multi-dimensional.
  3. [Taiwanese Burger] Ordering a beef burger at local Taiwanese burger shops brings a patty drenched in this peanut butter. Beef saltiness and peanut sweet-savoriness match demonically.
  4. [Toast] Slathering heavily on thick white bread (Hou Pian) and toasting makes the ultimate breakfast.

Trivia

[For Youth] The bottled peanut butter from the historic shop 'Fuyuan' in Hsinchu boasts cult popularity nationwide. Unlike Japanese sweet peanut cream, it's used as a condiment to add pure 'nut oil and richness' from 100% peanuts to dishes. For junk food-loving youth, an item that turns dishes into 'sinful flavors' more than cheese.
