Zhiwei Xiang Corn Introduction
This famous Zhìwèi Xiāng corn is well-known among those who have passed by the Taiwan Route 2 near Jinshan and Wanli. The corn sold here is glutinous corn, sourced from the banks of the Zhuoshui River in Yunlin. Its biggest feature is that it is steamed for two hours at high temperature before being grilled, which reportedly seals in the sweetness of the corn. The pricing is based on weight, and after weighing and checking out, they start applying the special sauce, followed by grilling the corn manually. They use chili peppers that are quite spicy, with the medium spice level being somewhat of a "challenge". Spicy food lovers might want to give it a try. Due to the owner's insistence on not selling corn of inferior quality, whether you can enjoy it depends on luck. (行遍天下 NO.202)
