Chen Ji Pig’s Blood Cake

I think the sauce is what makes or breaks a great pig’s blood cake. For me, the best kind of PBC texture is soft and chewy; too dry, and it’s like chewing on cardboard. Too sweet on peanut shavings, and it overtakes the nice savory flavors. Chen Ji’s is my favorite yet in Taipei.

Their sauce is chock full of pork flavor with just the right gelatinous, mochi-like consistency. You can go with a small for $20 NT or a large for $25 NT.

Chen Ji (陳記豬血糕) is just a short block in from the mouth of Nan Ji Chang Night Market.
