一整座山的愛玉樹，珮甄的爸爸照顧超過三十年。看見爸爸的痴，珮甄決定返鄉，在關山小鎮上開了一間「痴愛玉」，將自家的愛玉搓揉出香氣、凝結出Ｑ彈，搭配臺東的鳳梨、檸檬、蜜香紅茶，為關山的午後奉上一杯沁涼。 到訪的客人也能在店中看見愛玉果實的模樣，珮甄也走進校園進行食農教育、帶領旅人們體驗搓愛玉，這份對愛玉的痴，讓她凝聚起與家鄉的深入連結。
代表料理│愛玉燒酒雞／月桃愛玉
自家種植的東部原生種愛玉搭配紅標米酒搓出的愛玉凍，與燒酒雞搭配熬煮，是冬日進補的最佳湯品。珮甄用愛玉燒酒雞打破大眾對愛玉只是夏日消暑甜品的刻板印象，入口濃烈的雞湯驅趕了台北冬天的寒氣，性涼的愛玉平衡了身體的燥熱。想吃點甜的？也可嚐嚐珮甄準備的月桃愛玉凍，搭配手工熬煮蜜鳳梨，滋味很台東。
「在追求精緻飲食的環境下，愛玉手工搓洗技術只留在歲月裡，痴愛玉最天然的栽種方式，讓你簡單吃、吃出不簡單。」

Aiyu Passion : Jelly Specialty Store
The owner Fiona Wu decided to return to her homeland Guanshan to open "Aiyu Passion" because she was deeply moved by her father's dedication to tending his Aiyu fig farm for over 30 years. The Aiyu specialty store offers different cold desserts made with fragrant, chewy Aiyu jelly, which is made by scrubbing seeds of Aiyu trees, as well as local agricultural produce like pineapples, lemons, and honey black tea. Fiona also provides agriculture courses at local elementary schools and demonstrates how to make Aiyu by scrubbing its seeds for people visiting Taitung.
Shaojiu Chicken Aiyu Jelly／Shell Ginger Aiyu Jelly
Using their own cultivated native variety of ai-yu (a type of jelly-like dessert), combined with red label rice wine, Pei Zhen creates ai-yu jelly. When paired with simmered alcohol-infused chicken, it becomes the perfect nourishing soup for the winter season. Pei Zhen breaks the stereotype that ai-yu is only a refreshing dessert for the summer. The rich chicken broth warms away the chill of Taipei's winter, while the cooling properties of ai-yu balance the body's heat. Craving something sweet? You can also try Pei Zhen's ai-yu jelly with hand-cooked honey pineapple, representing the distinct flavors of Taitung.
"In the pursuit of refined dining, the traditional handcrafted ai-yu washing technique has been preserved through time. Our devotion to the most natural cultivation methods allows you to enjoy a simple dish that carries extraordinary flavors."
