About Taiwanese green onion pancake

Taiwanese Green Onion Pancake, or "Cong You Bing," is a savory and flaky flatbread popular in Taiwanese street food culture. Made from a simple dough of flour, water, and oil, the pancake is layered with chopped green onions before being folded and pan-fried to golden perfection. This beloved dish originates from Chinese cuisine, with Taiwan perfecting its crisp texture and bold aroma. While green onions provide a source of vitamins A and C, the pancake itself is relatively high in calories and carbohydrates due to its refined flour content and frying process. It offers energy and satisfying flavor but should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Variations may include added spices or fillings, enhancing its appeal and nutritional value. Perfect as a snack or a side dish, it reflects Taiwan’s vibrant and accessible culinary landscape.
