Beh Teh Soh (Roti Gula Putih, Hiong Piah, White Sugar Biscuit)

This type of biscuit is known as Beh Teh Soh in Penang. The outer layer of the biscuit is crispy and the filling is made from sweet molasses. The main ingredients are wheat flour, white sugar, wheat molasses, salt, vegetable oil, sesame seed and shallots. I love to eat Beh Teh Soh as my tea time snack. It goes down well with Pu Err tea.

These Beh Teh Soh are from Butterworth. They are priced at RM3.80 for 10 pieces.

These Hiong Piah are from Perak, Yee Hup. Very crispy and contains less sugar inside. I love the taste!

Nice packaging but pricey, around RM1 per piece sold in a packet of 10s.

    Is this the same as beh teh saw from the one and only Him Heang at Jalan Burma, Penang? I really love this biscuit. It costs about RM6 for 8 pieces all individually wrapped. The last time I visited Penang, bought a dozen boxes! Never tried from this Yee Hup brand before. Wonder which one is better?

    RM1 each is really too expensive...Two of those+20 sen, I can have a bowl of noodles here already! They say best is from Taiping? Or Teluk Intan? I like it when it is creamy and sticky inside (not dry)and the skin is flaky.
