Kiamoy

Kiamoy, chinese candy

Kiamoy

A Chinese candy that my eldest son and I love to nibble once in awhile is Kiamoy. The sweet, sour, salty and tangy taste of this preserved fruit is our favorite snack when we crave for something different to eat. My youngest son, Yahmir and my husband on the other hand choose the sweet Champoy for they do not like the after taste of Kiamoy.

Kiamoy is a preserved dried prune or plum which can be bought in Chinese stores. It is usually sold by the grams, I only buy 50-100 grams and just put it in a small bottle to last for a month consumption.  It is recommended to drink plenty of water after eating it because of its saltiness.
