With five thousand years of history and culture of the ancient city of Xuzhou famous specialty food varieties, rich resources, there are Fan family soft-shelled turtle juice dog meat, child pastry, hemp pieces, peanut candy, bee cake, hawthorn strips ...... countless, but my favorite to count the osmanthus crispy sugar.

Osmanthus crisp sugar is Xuzhou's famous specialty confectionery, there are thousands of years of production technology. Xuzhou's hometown of osmanthus crispy candy packaging is quite elaborate, for the traditional paper packaging, divided into two layers, the outer layer of white background, red lettering of the ordinary paper, the inner layer of moisture-proof wax paper packaging. Packets of sugar packaged into a clear-cut corners, the size of the same rectangular shape.

Osmanthus crispy sugar is not only the appearance of packaging, the inner is the production of excellence, mainly sesame, refined flour, honey, maltose, sugar, cinnamon, etc. by boiling sugar, sugar, baking and other more than a dozen of traditional crafts refined from the taste of sweet and delicious, can be eaten directly, but also can be boiled water, because of its rich aroma, nutritious and moisturizing, with moistening the lungs, stomach, the efficacy of the cough is a very favorite sweets. It is a very favorite sweet. At the same time, it is also an unforgettable flavor.

I like cinnamon sugar not only because it is sweet and delicious, but also because it has a beautiful legend.

It is said that during the Northern Song Dynasty, Su Dongpo was the governor of Xuzhou, and the Yellow River broke, and the floodwaters reached the city of Xuzhou, which was about to spread over the city walls, and it was rumored that the water would recede only if a young and beautiful woman jumped into the Yellow River. Su Dongpo's thirteen-year-old daughter Sugu heard, burning incense and praying: "as long as you can save the people of Xuzhou, she would like to give up her life to fight against the flood," prayers from the wall jumped into the water, the flood slowly receded, the city of Xuzhou preserved.

In honor of Sugu, people compete to buy osmanthus crisps to worship Sugu. "Crisp", "Su" also, is this just a coincidence of the name? Do not believe that you look at the shape of the candy, the length, width and height of the shape of each piece of candy and the ancient city wall brick is how similar ah!
