What exactly are the "three knives" in northern Jiangsu?
Three knives in northern Jiangsu originally referred to three occupations that Su Beiren often engaged in: restaurant, haircut and bathing, commonly known as kitchen knife, shaving knife and pedicure knife.

Three knives are ordinary desserts. Also called "honey knife", because it is a kind of food wrapped in sugar and oil, and the sugar liquid sticks between each one, which is very sweet. No matter how much you love food, you won't eat ten or eight pieces at a time. It's too greasy.

Ask his name? The pastry chef showed me three knife marks on each knife and named it. Let me tell you another story: It is said that people in southern Jiangsu and Su Beiren once exchanged ideas on how to make cakes, leaving each other with one hand. Shun 'an people didn't teach Su Beiren how to make Dong Tang (not to mention the origin with Dong Xiaowan here). Su Beiren also didn't teach people in southern Jiangsu how to make three knives (seemingly simple three knives also have complicated formulas and procedures). The three knives are clever and square, with a layer of white sesame seeds on the surface, dense and bright, generous and calm, and true in heart, unlike some snacks that are filled with bean paste and salt and pepper in strange shapes. Time has passed, and many real things have changed, such as moon cakes, which used to be filled with sugar and sesame seeds. Now egg yolk and sausage are varied and rich in content, and so are zongzi, which greatly enriches people's tastes. It's only three dollars, the same one needs to be changed, the same one.
