Crunchy buttered toast fingers 美味奶油酥條

27th December 2017 0 By livinguktaiwan

This is my latest discovery of a great snack. It doesn’t have an English name so I’m going to call it buttered toast fingers. They are one of the most popular souvenir snacks from Hualien in Taiwan and was recommended by the B&B owner during my recent trip.
這個星期去花蓮玩,發現非常美味的零食。民宿老闆娘推薦我奶油酥條,是花蓮有名的拌手禮。

They have been around for a few years already but I’m not a big snack fan so they haven’t popped on my radar till now. Let my show you exactly what they look like.
其實奶油酥條流行已有幾年,但我平時不太食零食,而且我較後知後覺,所以一直也沒留意到。打開塑膠盒蓋子,一陳奶油香味已撲鼻而來。

They are slices of bread, cut into fingers, and there are about six slices per box.
奶油酥條其實是一片片麵包切到一條條。每盒大概有六片麵包的份量。

The fingers are coated with melted butter, then sugar is sprinkled on top, and then they are baked in a low heat oven, at about 150 degrees for 30 minutes till they are crunchy. Usually I’m very fussy with my bread and toast, and always cut off the crust. Here, even the crust is very crunchy, and because it has a touch of sweetness, it is very addictive!
麵包條是先沾上奶油,然後撒上沙糖,最後用大概150度低溫烤 30分鐘到金黃色脆脆就完成。平常我食麵包是蠻挑剔,麵包邊皮一定不吃。但這個連麵包邊皮也非常香脆,甜甜的,簡直是吃到停不了口!!P_20171226_214711

They are great for dunking into a cup of coffee for elevenses! Unhealthy I hear you say? That’s what new year resolutions are for, and new year isn’t here yet!!
喝咖啡時,把奶油酥條攪拌在咖啡裡吃,又有另一個不同美味吃法。你說這個不健康嗎?吃了再算吧!
