It is that time of the year again when everyone flocks to various bak kwa (Chinese salty-sweet dried and preserved meat) stores around Singapore for a red hot bunch of snacks.

Bak kwa can be eaten alone, with bread, and even with rice. Whatever works. While the traditional bak kwa sees huge throngs of eager buyers annually, its lesser-known plant-based counterparts are a hidden gem. Now that plant-based bak kwa is gaining more traction, feast on them for good luck and ward off bad juju this Chinese New Year.
