Taiwanese Oyster Pancake
I have an oyster pancake update! My original recipe is here, but my uncle suggested I make one important change and it totally worked! Instead of tapioca starch, I used potato starch. The end product is similar, but the texture is more "right." I don't know how to describe it other than that. If you can't find potato starch use tapioca starch, but definitely do NOT use corn starch. You'll get a rubbery pancake instead of a gooey, slimy one--and yes, you do want slimy.

Oh thank you, yours looks great. I wanna try this very soon. I love this stuff. I just went to Taiwan over the x'mas break and devoured loads of food in the night markets. Check out the posting if you can on the left side of my blog under TRAVELING STORIES.
