The third cannon is a famous traditional snack in Sichuan, which is mainly made of glutinous rice. When the third cannon throws glutinous rice balls, it makes a clang, clang, clang sound, which is similar to a projectile, and it is divided into iron cannon, cannon and cannon, hence the name "Three Cannons".
When traveling to Chengdu, it is easy to see the Three Guns in conventional scenic spots such as Kuaizhai Hutong, Jinli and Luodai Ancient Town. Frankly speaking, local people don't spend much on this snack now (we usually buy Ciba at a more realistic price), but it is also a very interesting Sichuan snack. The process of playing is more interesting, and it is worth a try to travel to Chengdu.
Sanpao is sweet and delicious, sweet but not greasy, easy to melt slag, and also suitable for refreshments. Don't miss the little friends who like sweet mouth and soft taste.
Recommendation 2: Spicy rabbit head
Spicy rabbit head is one of the famous snacks in Chengdu, Sichuan. It tastes delicious and excellent. The main raw materials are frozen fresh rabbit heads, dried peppers, ginger slices and refined oil.
The rabbit is so cute, it tastes better with more pepper. People in Chengdu like to eat rabbit heads, among which Shuangliu's mother's rabbit head is especially famous. This dish can be seen everywhere in restaurants, night markets, stalls and pot-stewed shops, showing the great charm of rabbit head. There are two common kinds: spicy and five flavors, but if you want to feel the most delicious rabbit head, it is recommended to try spicy. The rabbit head has no meat, mainly taste, but the process is very enjoyable. Many stores are ready to pack services and even vacuum them. Eating foreign food is delicious. In addition, eating rabbit skulls has special significance in some places in Sichuan. Foreign friends might as well guess?
Recommendation 3: Sugar and oil fruit
Sugar-and-oil fruit was the most popular at the old Chengdu Flower Fair, because many people ate and walked with bamboo sticks strung with sugar-and-oil fruit, and watched the lights while enjoying the flowers, thus forming another food landscape at the flower fair. Sugar oil fruit tastes sweet and crisp, and its characteristics and flavor are crisp, fragrant, soft but not greasy.
Street stalls are easier to see candied fruit, and generally only sell such products. It is a good enjoyment to watch the frying process of sugar and oil fruits. The difference between sugar and oil fruit in which company to buy is not particularly big, but it tastes absolutely first-class when it is hot. The sweet, fragrant, crisp and crisp taste is simply irresistible. Although it is fried, it does not have the greasy feeling of many fried foods. Anyway, I won't get tired of serving three strings at a time.
Recommendation 4: Ice powder
Ice powder is a famous snack, which originated from Pengshan District, Meishan City, Sichuan Province. Popular in many places in recent years, it is a famous summer snack. Cold and sweet, tender and smooth, refreshing, promoting fluid production to relieve summer heat, cooling and reducing fire.
The popularity of hot pot has also spread this authentic Sichuan snack to other places. Cool in summer or with hot pot is a perfect match. A foreign friend of mine from Hebei always asks for three bowls of ice powder every time he comes to Chengdu to eat hot pot. Although the ice powder method is simple, it is quite difficult to do it well. The first is to control the hardness of ice powder, which is too soft and shapeless and too hard to chew. Secondly, the collocation of ingredients is also very particular. Traditionally, only brown sugar water is added for seasoning. Later, some stores added raisins, peanuts, hawthorn slices, sesame seeds and other ingredients, and now it is more and more complicated, such as fermented grains, small dumplings, osmanthus flowers, watermelons and other ingredients.
Recommendation 5: Cold noodles.
Cold noodles, also known as cold noodles, also known as "crossing water", originated in the Tang Dynasty and refers to cold noodles. The main ingredients are noodles and vegetables, and the ingredients are Chili oil, salt and monosodium glutamate. However, the cold noodles are made in different places, so the methods and ingredients are different, which is especially suitable for eating in summer.
Cold noodles are snacks in many parts of the country, and of course they are also available in Sichuan. Of course, Sichuan's cold noodles are mainly spicy, and many stores will also add monosodium glutamate and sugar to enhance the taste, and finally add the right amount of chives. The cold noodles themselves are not very demanding. It is important to prepare a spoonful of oil pepper, which has a prominent taste. Among all Sichuan cold noodles, my favorite is the cold noodles with shredded chicken as shown above. The addition of chicken increases the rich sensory experience of cold noodles.
