Pepper bun (Hu jiao bing)

Hújiāo bǐng is a street food delicacy that is believed to have originated in Fuzhou, Fujian. This filling snack consists of a bun that is stuffed with sliced scallions and minced or finely chopped meat, preferably marinated fatty pork cuts.

The buns are usually sprinkled with sesame seeds before they are baked in clay ovens. Apart from China, pepper buns are also popular in Taiwan where they are traditionally sold by street vendors of Fujian descent.
