When Zhao Yanjun, 22, a chemistry major at the University of Science and Technology Beijing, looks back to her exchange days at Tunghai University in Taiwan, the first thing she remembers is sausage wrapped in glutinous rice. Just as the name suggests, it’s a carb-loaded rice mixture wrapped around a baked sausage. “The baked sausage looks oily, but doesn’t tastegreasy, and the rice is soft with a crispy skin,” Zhao says. Among the different flavors, which include spicy, black pepper and wasabi, Zhao recommends the wasabi flavor. “It’s a little strange at first, but it’s very refreshing.”
北京科技大学化学专业22岁的赵艳君(音译)每每想起她在台湾东海大学交换的日子,首先在脑海中浮现出的都是大肠包小肠。正如其名,大肠包小肠是由混着蟹肉的米肠将烤好的台湾香肠包裹而成。赵艳君说,“里面的烤肠看似油光闪闪但丝毫不腻,而外面的米肠则内软外脆。”大肠包小肠有香辣、黑胡椒、芥末等各种口味,而赵艳君则特别推荐芥末味,她说“虽然入口有点怪异,但是十分爽口。”
