What Makes 蠶豆酥 Different
蠶豆酥 (cán dòu sū) are distinct from standard roasted broad beans. The 酥 (sū) preparation creates a lighter, more airy structure — think of the difference between a dense roasted nut and a light, crispy puff. The result is a broad bean snack that is significantly crunchier and less dense, with a satisfying shatter rather than a hard bite.
