Quzhou cuisine has a unique flavor and a long history of food culture. Cooking pays attention to freshness, softness and smoothness, with the intention of keeping the original flavor unchanged. There are many methods such as steaming, roasting, stewing, soaking, frying and slurrying. The famous snacks in Zhangzhou are "three heads and one palm", and the three heads in Quzhou are rabbit head, duck head, fish head and duck palm, all of which are local flavor foods in Quzhou. Rabbit head is the most representative, and its meat is delicate and loose; High protein, low fat and low cholesterol are beneficial to physical and mental health. Flavor snacks also include Quzhou scones, Quzhou sesame cakes, Babaocai, Longyou rice paste, Longyou kai yang dried bean curd, Longyou hair cake, hairy bean curd, Quzhou fried fruit, mountain flour meat, Kaihua Qingsi, Kaihua baked cake, Changshan huyou, water chestnut tofu, Kaihua chestnut, Gaojia shredded radish, Quzhou Ponkan, Quzhou citrus, Quhong orange and Shuangqiao vermicelli.

Three heads and one palm in Quzhou (rabbit head, duck head, fish head and duck palm) are local flavor foods in Quzhou, among which rabbit head is the most representative. Its meat is fine and loose, with high protein, low fat and low cholesterol, as well as effective ingredients such as phosphorus, calcium, vitamins and lecithin, which are beneficial to the health and metabolism of skin and mucosa, so it is called "beauty meat" and "healthy meat". Quzhou has a long history of three heads and one palm (rabbit head, duck head, fish head and duck's paw), starting with duck head and rabbit head. In the 195s, there was a refrigeration factory in Quzhou, which specialized in killing ducks and rabbits. Duck feathers and meat were needed, but duck heads were neglected. Because of the low living standard at that time, the poor bought duck heads or rabbit heads home (three cents a catty) and burned them. I don't know which day, an aunt set up a "spicy rabbit head" stall in front of her house to subsidize her family. Spicy rabbit heads were cheap and delicious, and they became popular all of a sudden. Because the rabbit head business is low in cost and can make some money. Now, "Santou" is not only popular in snack bars and food stalls in the streets and lanes, but also has become a special dish or brand dish in hotels and restaurants. So the habit of eating duck's head and rabbit's head in the streets slowly came from this. It was not until the early 199s that the duck's head and rabbit's head really became "hot", and the degree of its "fire" not only made Quzhou people feel honored, but also spread to all parts of the country and became all the rage. Personally, I prefer the duck's head and the duck's paw, and the rabbit's head is the best. Go to an unknown shop at the intersection of Rende Road.
Quzhou scones, also known as baked cakes, are traditional local snacks in Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province. The main raw materials are flour, cooking oil, pork, dried prunes, sesame seeds and chopped green onion. It is made in a special oven, because the cake is baked on the wall of the charcoal oven until it is cooked, so it is called scone. The finished product is tender in the outside, salty, spicy and not spicy. Quzhou scones have a long history in the local area, and it is difficult to trace their roots. Scones can also be called sesame cakes, because the cakes should be baked on the wall of the charcoal stove until cooked, so it is more appropriate to call them scones. This delicious and cheap snack, which can only be found in the streets and lanes of Quzhou, is also very particular when making. Recommend Yuji scone, Liaoji scone and the scone stand in Jiaochi Street.
