The customs in Nanjing are still very local, and I feel that they are all related to eating and have certain requirements on diet. Therefore, I suggest that friends who come to Nanjing, if they are lucky enough to meet some local customs, accept and respect them generously and enjoy the delicious food here.

Hakka custom 1

The hospitable Hakkas hold rice wine to welcome every guest from afar. These rice wines are brewed by Hakka people with a unique formula and special method. On holidays or the arrival of relatives and friends, Hakka people like to treat each other with delicious and low-concentration rice wine, which is sweet and refreshing and memorable. This warm hospitality is a custom that Hakka people are proud of. At banquets, Hakkas also have their own unique customs and habits, and pay great attention to etiquette. Hakkas like to use the "Eight Immortals Table", pay attention to the arrangement of seats when attending the table, and take seats according to the pecking order of relatives and friends. When screening wine, you also pour wine in order of seniority, and then pour wine for yourself. When drinking, they usually do Hakka wine orders and guess wine punches to add to the excitement, and the lively atmosphere is higher and higher.

Hakka people are famous for their hospitality. Every time Tulou residents carry palanquin and centipede flag to tour the village, every household prepares offerings such as tea, good fruit, dishes and poultry to show their respect for their ancestors and pray for good luck and well-being, which is a folk custom reserved by Tulou people. Tulou people don't want gorgeous clothes, but simple and generous, neat and clean. In the diet of Tulou residents, rice is the main staple food, sweet potatoes, rice flour and noodles are the secondary foods, porridge is eaten for breakfast, and dry rice is eaten in the afternoon and evening. At ordinary times, many people in Tulou have the habit of drinking tea, and have formed an indispensable etiquette for hospitality.

Gourmet recommendation

Tulou farm dishes are characterized by materials taken from rural local products, and the craftsmanship is farmhouse craftsmanship, and the taste of food is simple and heavy Tulou flavor. There are native chicken, duck, brook fish, bamboo shoots, wild vegetables, glutinous rice wine, all kinds of deep mountain stews and other pure natural and pollution-free Hakka-style foods, so that you can eat your fill!

Tulou people have three meals a day, most of which are porridge in the morning and evening, and dry rice in the daytime. Rural breakfast porridge with miscellaneous grains. It is called "coarse grain", which used to be "coarse grain for half a year" all the year round. When the harvest failed, it was mainly coarse grain, and sometimes it was necessary to eat sweet potato residue to satisfy hunger. Wheat has always been scarce, so noodles are only used for Chinese New Year meals or for entertaining guests. Sometimes, when the spring is barren, the newly harvested wheat is ground into coarse powder and made into wheat soup, but it is rarely eaten like this after the 195 s.

Home-cooked dishes, dried pickles and dried radishes, with seasonal vegetables, amaranth, blood fern, Chinese cabbage, mustard, quinoa and stir-fried rice are the most common. Every household can make some side dishes, such as raw pickled vegetables and raw radish seeds, which are crisp and delicious and full of local characteristics. There are also bean paste and bean curd, which are common dishes.

besides cooking and porridge, rice can also be made into dried powder, bowl cakes, cage beds and the like. Dried vermicelli is famous for its white, tender, soft, smooth and tough characteristics. There are also rice cakes made of glutinous rice and rice fruits made of rice, such as cake, round, frozen and fruity, and their tastes are sweet, salty and alkaline. On festive days, every household prepares, worships God, pays guests and gives gifts to relatives and friends. It is also a traditional food for rural New Year's Day.

snacks with flavor include meatballs and lamp cakes. Meat food, the most famous of which is roasted in chunks and boiled chicken, is the main course of the banquet. Braised pork and dry steamed pork are usually traditional dishes. Tulou people are famous for their wine-making, which is pure and sweet, low in degree and not easy to intoxicate, and is popular among women and children. Jiuniang is sweet and delicious, accompanied by steamed eggs, which is beautiful. Drinking tea in bowls is mainly used to quench thirst, and sometimes it is used to make soup and rice, as the saying goes, "coarse tea and light rice".

It's a blessing that snacks arrive here. Many delicious foods here are very authentic, and fruits and vegetables are all grown at home, so it's really a farm dish, but the taste is not bad at all. You must eat some special dishes when you come.
