4, eat flat food. In Dong Xian Town, Jiangsu Province, many villagers eat flat food (a kind of food made of flour and sugar) during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Now some people call flat food jiaozi, but it is very different from jiaozi. The difference between flat food and jiaozi lies in the skin first, and then in the stuffing. As far as skin is concerned, dumpling skin is thick, and flat food skin is as thin as cicada's wings, crystal clear. Jiaozi has very little stuffing, only the size of a thumb, so jiaozi is smaller. Although there are more than a dozen jiaozi in a bowl, it only accounts for one third of the bowl, and the rest is soup. Moreover, the stuffing in jiaozi is relatively simple, and vegetarian dishes and seasonings are mostly added to pork. Flat food is very different, not only can be stuffed with meat and vegetables, but also chicken, duck, fish, crab, prickly heat and tender soybeans, etc., and pay special attention to collocation, chicken breast with celery, pork with shepherd's purse, eggs with leeks and so on.
