Pancake fruit is a snack of Tianjin people. It consists of mung bean pancakes, eggs, fried dough sticks or crispy "chicken gizzards", with flour paste, chopped green onion, fermented bean curd and Chili sauce (optional) as seasonings, which tastes salty and delicious. At present, the raw materials of pancake crust are not only limited to pancakes with mung bean powder stalls, but also a variety of choices such as soybeans and black bean powder.
