Sankou Qiaotou 61 Line Oyster Omelette Introduction
"61 Line Oyster Omelette" is the third oyster omelette stall established on Sanku Qiaotou Seafood Street, opened in 2011. It is named "61 Line Oyster Omelette" because Sanku Qiaotou Seafood Street is located next to the "Taiwan Provincial Highway 61" western coastal expressway. The batter used for "61 Line Oyster Omelette" consists of flour, while the filling is made of cabbage, chives, celery, and oysters. The preparation involves lightly frying the shaped oyster omelettes first, keeping them aside, and then frying them to order when customers place their orders, before serving them cut into pieces. In addition to oyster omelettes, "61 Line Oyster Omelette" also sells fried tilapia, fried taro cakes, fried taro, and oyster vermicelli. The tilapia is farmed on-site and is not the freshwater Taiwan snapper. The oyster vermicelli is available in both dry and soup varieties. For the dry version, the preparation involves blanching the vermicelli; sautéing garlic, fried shallots, and sesame oil lightly, adding a small amount of water, then tossing in the vermicelli and oysters before finishing with scallions and sesame oil before serving. For the soup version, the oysters are blanched in advance. Garlic, fried shallots, and sesame oil are stir-fried until fragrant, water is added, and when boiling, the vermicelli and oysters are added, cooking briefly before serving in bowls.
