Wuxi cuisine includes "Three Whites" in Taihu Lake, steamed buns, three fresh wonton, square cake, radish cake, wine-brewed cotton balls and Jiangyin swordfish noodles.

First of all, I have to mention whitebait, white shrimp and white fish in the "three whites" of Taihu Lake. The whitebait in Taihu Lake is more than two inches long, slightly round in length, shaped like a Hosta, seemingly boneless and without intestines, delicate and transparent, and silvery in color, so it is called whitebait. Whitebait is tender and nutritious, without scales, thorns and fishy smell, and can be used to cook various delicacies. White fish, also known as "shad", is long and narrow, with a flat side, silvery light, tender meat and much fat under the scale, which looks like shad. White shrimp has a high meat yield when peeled, and it can also be processed into dried shrimp. After peeling, it is "lake opening".

shrimp can also be used as medicine. It can support acne, promote lactation, and strengthen the intestines. It is a drug for strengthening and replenishing essence, and it has the function of detoxifying Tori when taken orally. Then there are Wuxi ribs and oil gluten in the four traditional specialties. Wuxi spareribs are red in sauce, crisp and fragrant, moderately sweet and salty, but not fat. Oil gluten is golden in color, smooth in surface and crisp in flavor.

in addition to traditional specialties, Wuxi's traditional famous dishes such as steamed buns, three fresh wonton, square cakes, radish cakes, wine-brewed cotton balls and so on are full of praise! Wuxi steamed bread is a traditional name in Wuxi. It is made of superior flour, fine materials and steamed in a small cage. Boiled crab yellow oil is returned to the stuffing, which is the famous "crab powder cage".

Sam sun wonton originated from the folk in Dongting township, Wuxi county, and later developed into a traditional famous spot in Wuxi. Wonton is made of fresh meat, kai yang and pickled mustard tuber, so it is called "Sanxian". The best white glutinous rice flour was mixed and kneaded with hot water, cut into squares, and screened into small balls with a flat screen.

In addition, mash the wine and sugar into a bowl, and put the cooked dumplings and soup into the bowl. Yulan cake is named because it is in the flowering season of Yulan. This cake is made of glutinous rice flour mixed with boiling water into small pieces, made into cake embryo, wrapped in vegetable lard, red bean paste, fresh meat, roses, sesame seeds and other stuffing, put in a flat pan and fried and branded.

after talking about specialties and snacks, let's have another staple food-Jiangyin swordfish noodles! Jiangyin swordfish noodles are white and delicate, which will not be rotten after a long time of cooking. They are both chewy and delicious. If they are served with shredded ham, shredded egg skin and sprinkled with minced garlic leaves, the richness and health of ingredients are comparable to those of Niuduo beef noodles!
