It functions as Hohhot's answer to a breakfast sandwich, but built entirely around a dense, chewy roasted bread.
A round, oven-roasted bread is split open and filled with fried eggs, sausage, pickled vegetables, and sometimes potato, assembled to order at street stalls.
Why it's made this way: The bread's dense, long-keeping texture suited Inner Mongolia's historically nomadic food culture.
