The outer shell is crispy and crunchy, and the aroma of sesame fills your mouth.
The filling is rich but not greasy, with a perfect balance of saltiness and savory flavor.
The preserved mustard greens are infused with the savory juices of the meat, while the meat is infused with the aroma of the preserved mustard greens; the combination of the two truly leaves a lingering fragrance in your mouth.
No wonder someone's eyes lit up when they talked about crab shell pastries!
