Chenggong, Taiwan
Chenggong Douhua
Douhua, Taiwan's silken tofu dessert, finds one of its most direct expressions in Chenggong, a small coastal town on the island's east coast where the ingredient supply chain is short and the preparation unadorned. Chenggong Douhua draws from that local tradition, serving a dish whose quality is inseparable from where and how its soybeans are grown. For visitors passing through Hualien County, it represents the kind of regional specificity that larger city venues rarely replicate.
