A familiar old song has brought us back to the 1970s. In a few days, it will be the annual traditional Lantern Festival, so it is natural to think of this song. Speaking of dumplings, we in Ningbo can be said to be the most authentic. Today, we will talk about the "Tangyuan Sisters" in the Chenghuang Temple.
The reason why Ningbo Tangyuan has a long history is that it is made finely. Wang Fene said that Ningbo glutinous rice balls are mainly made of high-quality white glutinous rice, with black sesame seeds, pork suet, white sugar and osmanthus as fillings, and the technological process is even more meticulous. Grinding, stuffing and pill making are all very particular, and even the soup is put into the bowl. Compared with the dumplings made by the machine, the handmade dumplings are thin and smooth, as white as suet, shiny and smooth. That taste is so delicious that she still remembers the scene of making dumplings as a child.
