Discovering "Candied Yam" in China!


Do you know this Korean dish called "Mat Tang"?

Erik and I found something similar in a restaurant that serves Heilongjiang food.

I saw the description and it said "candied yam" and I was so happy! because, again, I was imagining candied yams that you would see with your thanksgiving dinner....

but instead, something else came out, which was still very delightful!

the "candied" part was different because it was more like glue-ish candied coat.

It really sticks in your mouth and it stretches so long and it hardens very quickly...

If you ever had Korean "Mat Tang" (which is the Korean version of candied yams) you will find it similar to this...


Chinese "candied yam" ! So sweet, crispy and Delicioso!!
