Roasted plums
In the ancient city of Huangzhou, there are not only Dongpo Chibi for people to mourn, but also many delicious foods for you to choose and taste. Among them, roasted plums, tofu and radishes have the best flavor, which is called the three musts.
Roasted plums are a traditional dessert in Huangzhou Fucheng. Legend has it that it was founded in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, with a history of more than 900 years. Its production features are: firstly, the materials are exquisite, and the first-class refined white flour, orange cake, raw flowers, pea powder, raisins, fat pork, sweet-scented osmanthus with sugar stains, rock sugar, white sugar, refined salt and other ingredients are selected. Secondly, pay attention to workmanship. Knead the flour repeatedly until the dough does not touch the basin or table. Then knead the kneaded dough into strips and cut into small pieces. Take a section and roll it quickly with a rolling pin, and sprinkle starch while rolling until it becomes a lotus leaf-shaped foreskin. The stuffing should be finely diced or mashed, then mixed evenly, then kneaded into dough and wrapped with dough. Third, the wrapped roasted plums look like pomegranates. After completion, it is necessary to decorate the upper "petals" with food pigments like a clump of red berries, so it is also called pomegranate baked plum, which means "pomegranate blossoms and plum is Five Blessingg".
Roasted plums in Huangzhou can be steamed in cages or fried in hemp. People in Huangzhou always like to cook and hold a glass of "plum wine" at happy events or festivals. Roasted plums are a famous point for Huangzhou people to entertain guests.
