Speaking of the delicious time-honored Yuanxiao in Nanjing, the old lady of Confucius Temple is the only one. Every year on New Year's Eve to the 18th Jacky, the old lady will appear at the downstairs of Zhanyuan Road sign in Confucius Temple, pushing a car to make people want to stay.

Because the old lady makes dumplings, its toughness and chewiness are unique. Yuanxiao stuffing is made of six kinds of raw materials: melon seeds, black sesame seeds, sweet-scented osmanthus, red and green silk, pine nuts and sugar, which can be stacked to tens of thousands a day.

Address: at the entrance of Confucius Temple on Zhanyuan Road

Second, the dumb egg jiaozi

The whole family mixes stuffing and peels the skin from raw materials to finished products. In the past, we used a big spoon to cook it over an open flame. Now everyone likes to buy ready-made egg dumplings, which are necessary for the New Year. Stew them with vegetables. A big pot is delicious!

Address: Lane 378, Changle Road

Third, jiaozi.

I will definitely eat jiaozi during the Spring Festival, and there will be surprises in jiaozi when I wrap coins and sugar. Besides the Spring Festival, Nanjing also has the custom of eating jiaozi from the winter solstice. Make trouble in jiaozi bowl on the solstice of winter, and no one cares if you freeze your ears? .

Four, eight-treasure rice

The production technology of eight-treasure rice is quite complicated, and the materials used are exquisite. Folk also call it Babao rice, which has a deep relationship with the ancient Babao map. The so-called eight treasures are jade fish, Hehe, Bangu, Qing, Longmen, Ganoderma lucidum, pine and crane, which means to pray for good luck and peace.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) spring roll

Spring rolls are delicious only when fried, so they are always served last. Traditional fillings are chives and leeks. People put a plate of spring rolls on the holiday table. What else is there? Gold two thousand? Auspicious meaning.

Six, sausage

Filling sausages two months in advance is very busy, and it is just right to take them out during the Chinese New Year. It is excellent to use sausages in dishes or stewed rice.

Seven, Artemisia argyi fried qianzi.

People in Nanjing have the habit of eating wild vegetables, and Artemisia annua is a must in Nanjing. Artemisia selengensis has a clear fragrance when fried. If you fry with stinky dry, it will be full of praise.

Eight, roast duck, salted duck

People in Nanjing can't live without ducks all the year round, let alone New Year. Does Nanjing know? No ducks, no tables? It's said that ducks were stockpiled years ago.

Nine, lard rice cakes

On the first morning, I sometimes eat rice cakes, which means getting taller every year. At home, I often buy lard rice cakes from supermarkets, slice them, fry them in egg liquid and dip them in sugar. Or dip it in oil and eat it directly, and the color turns golden yellow. It tastes crispy outside and sticky inside, which is super delicious.

Ten, green vegetable tofu

Every New Year's Eve dinner has green vegetable and bean curd soup. The traditional saying is to keep safe. In fact, during the Spring Festival these days, people will eat big fish and meat, and suddenly a green, clear and refreshing vegetable tofu soup will feel fresh.
