Taro pastry (Chinese: 芋頭酥; pinyin: Yùtóusū) is a Taiwanese shortbread snack with a spherical shape and made with taro as sweet filling.[1] It first appeared in Taichung City, Taiwan in the late 1980s. At that time, it was made from surplus taro, but it later became a local snack.[2]
Method of preparation
The main method of making taro pastry is to wrap the pastry made with flour and butter with the filling made of taro puree and place it in the oven.[3]
