The round and round shape looks like an inverted sieve, with various calligraphy, usually "Fu, Lu, Longevity and Joy". The sweet and crunchy texture completely satisfies the craving for foodies, leaving you wanting more after finishing one.

When I was a child, following the adults to "drink wedding wine with meat" was as satisfying as receiving lucky money. No New Year’s Eve dinner would be complete without braised pork. The biggest difference between Yulin’s braised pork is its sweet and sour taste, because in addition to star anise, cinnamon and other aniseed ingredients, lemon tangerines and sour plums are also added to it, making it taste fat but not fat.

Hello, there are many delicious things in Yulin, but the most unforgettable ones for me are the following:

1. Yulin Niuba, there is a saying in the acrobatics, It’s called “One fresh trick can be eaten all over the world”. This sentence is the most suitable to describe "Yulin Niuba". Authentic Yulin nubuck is translucent in color, like coffee, shiny, rich in aroma, salty and sweet, delicious and refreshing, tough but not hard. Spicy and refreshing, it goes well with wine, rice noodles and porridge. It is also a very good choice as a snack. Every time I go to Yulin, I have to buy several bottles of nubuck.

2. Baisan, also called rice crackers, is white and slightly yellow, sweet and crispy, and will break into pieces if pressed lightly. Baijiu is a traditional New Year product of Yulin people.

Personally, I like it very much. It has the aroma of rice. The more you chew it in your mouth, the sweeter it becomes, and I think it can fill your stomach. In fact, white powder is not only sold in Yulin, but also in other places in Guangxi, but I always feel that the local white powder in Yulin is The powder tastes better, hahaha.

Speaking of Yulin delicacies, what I miss the most are the rice dumplings made from ground cassava that I ate when I was a kid. It was cold at that time, so when I got up, my neighbor gave me a cassava rice dumpling. It was cold and I took a bite. Cassava rice dumplings, so happy. Cassava rice dumplings are different from rice rice dumplings. Rice rice dumplings are made directly from rice after being soaked for several hours. The texture is not that delicate. But cassava rice dumplings are different. They are made of pulp and have a very special taste. So now, more than ten years later, I still miss cassava rice dumplings. But no one does it now. It is estimated that many people born in the 90s do not know what cassava rice dumplings are. If anyone knows where to buy this kind of cassava rice dumplings in Yulin, remember to leave me a message.

I ate too much. I am from Yulin and I am also a half-chef. What I want to eat depends on my appetite at the time. Because the current operation is different, the breeding is too fast, and the taste is not the same as before.

I want to cook it myself. Really, I still like to eat Yulin Yusheng. People in Hengxian County are not used to it. What we eat in Yulin is Sweet and spicy. Soak the fish fillet in peanut oil and mix it with more than a dozen ingredients, roll it with fried peanuts and rice noodles and eat it together. This way of eating is called refreshing. It’s really not something I can’t get used to without peanuts and rice noodles.
