Longyou hair cake is a very representative snack in Longyou. Every family will prepare a snack on holidays. Nowadays, there are hair cakes in the streets and shopping malls, which are usually brought home by tourists as gifts. Compared with other snacks, hair cake is a delicious food for all ages. It is not spicy, sweet but not greasy, and waxy but not sticky.
Longyou meatball
Mainly based on sweet potato powder, adding some ingredients such as minced meat and shredded radish, it tastes very tough. Because it was a dragon tour at night, I basically ordered something not too spicy as a snack.
Longyou chopped green onion mantou
In other places, it is called steamed bread (no dough), and in Longyou it is called bread. Longyou's steamed bread is like this, called chopped green onion steamed bread. To eat authentic Longyou steamed bread, you should go to a farmhouse in Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival or Spring Festival, and wrap it with chopped green onion and minced meat, which is delicious.
Rice paste
As a representative snack of Longyou, rice paste has always been the mainstay of Longyou breakfast. When eating, I always like to put a lot of Chili sauce with the characteristics of rice paste, which is usually made by the store. Chili sauce seems to be a mixture of water, salt, monosodium glutamate and some unknown spices. It's very thin. It dissolves when mixed with rice paste, and there is no trace. I saw that the whole bowl of rice paste turned red, and with a little vinegar, it was sour and spicy, and my appetite was wide open.
Tofu balls
Its making process is very interesting. I saw the master quickly scooped up a spoonful of tofu mud mixed with minced meat in his right hand, crushed it gently, and put his left hand into a bowl filled with Ge Fen, shaking it evenly clockwise. When it was covered with a thick layer of Ge Fen, meatballs formed, plopped on the edge of the bowl, fell into the pot in front of him, waited for it to float, and then took it out of the pot. Tofu balls served on the table are rippling like white jade in the clear soup dotted with green onions. The surface is crystal clear, just a small one, lining the fragrance of tofu and revealing the fullness of meat fat, which is neither dull nor boring. A meatball fell into my stomach. I took a sip of clear soup, and the flavor was still wrapped around the bottom of my throat, which made people quickly lift the spoon and pick up the next tofu pill. Friends who like heavy taste can also add some peasant Chili sauce and balsamic vinegar.
