Coffin bread, also known as coffin lid or coffin board (Taiwanese Hokkien: koaⁿ-chhâ-pán 棺柴板, Chinese: 棺材板; pinyin: guāncaibǎn),[1] is a Taiwanese bread bowl which originated in Tainan.
History
Coffin bread has been sold at night markets in Tainan and Taipei since at least the 1940s.[2] It became popular with US troops stationed in Taiwan.[3]
Description
Coffin bread starts as a thick Texas toast style slab of white bread. The bread is hollowed out and either toasted or fried before it is filled with a creamy stew of chicken, seafood, tripe, or mushroom. It is then topped with a piece of toasted or fried bread, creating the "coffin" look.[2]
