Thong muan

Thong muan is a Thai snack, similar to the American pirouline. It is a crispy wafer that comes in a cigar-shaped form. Its origins was influenced by the Portuguese. Due to its name, Thai people present thong muan as a gift, symbolizing wishes for wealth. Thong muan is mentioned in the Kap He Chom Khrueang Khao Wan poem from the King Rama II era (1767 – 1824). In the King Rama 2 Era, Thailand interacted with Eastern and Western countries, receiving their dessert recipes. Thong Muan were introduced into Thailand by Portuguese nuns. Thong Muan's ingredients can be modified in individual recipes, but the traditional ingredients are rice flour, coconut milk, and eggs that come seasoned with black sesame seed.
