Qingtuan, a traditional festival food of the Han nationality, is mainly popular in the Qingming Festival in our Jiangnan area. It is green in color. It is made of wheat straw juice, mixed with glutinous rice flour and then wrapped in bean paste filling. It is not sweet but not greasy, and has a light but long grass aroma.
