The Forumosan Recipe Thread

This is my kinda thread! :drooling_face:

I’ve found a “cumin and spices” blend at Carrefour that tastes pretty cumin-y to me. I just use that.

I love cooking. I’ve been working on taking my favorite familiar recipes and making them a bit more Taiwan-ified so that I’m using fresher, more affordable ingredients, and also just trying to assimilate better into the culture here in general (lived here a little less than a year now but likely here for the long term). Anyone have any great go-to substitutes?

Here are some of my latest…


Pork tenderloin marinated in soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey…uh…I forget what else, then reduced the sauce to pour over the top and served with roasted sweet potatoes


I LOVE making French toast with the thick sliced milk toast from 7-11


Fish tacos made with the aforementioned cumin :slight_smile:
