I’ve been shopping at the Asian grocery store more recently because I’ve been wanting hearty Asian soups, bok choy, Asian snacks and bakery breads. I was walking around H-Mart and stumbled on these green onion breakfast breads and knew I had to get them to try! Let me say, they did not disappoint! I finished the whole package SO quickly.
I sliced the breads in half, toasted them and stuffed it with a shrimp and egg omelet! This sandwich bread also known as “shaobing” is a traditional Chinese flatbread. I’ve eaten it toasted by itself, with egg itself or and egg omelet like this recipe here!
