Taste

The city introduction says the cake is deeply sweet and rich, with a taste of its own from the tangerine peel.

How to enjoy it

The city introduction’s method is 200 grams of rươi, about three eggs, and 200 grams of minced lean pork, plus ginger leaf, scallion, dill, and thin tangerine peel. The worms are rinsed, blanched, drained, and beaten smooth, then the batter is fried in oil over a low flame. It calls the cake sweet, rich, and marked by the peel.

Where to try it

Ask locally for the current stall. The city introduction names the season, and does not give a month.
