taste of a city the spring festival is upcoming we all wanna find something festive but with the rapid development, many traditional and festive things are hard to find now some even disappeared already. what a shame that is why we came to Fangcun, Guangzhou. we will take you to find the traditional and festival things we are gonna interview a master making traditional Cantonese desserts this is master Guan it mush have been a long time since you picked up the job yeah. it has been decades we wanna show the audiences some traditional desserts something that we ate a lot during the spring festive in the past got it. what will you show us? Youjiao, Dansan, Xiaokouzao they were the must during the spring festival in the past we used to eat a lot of them. but we don't know how they are made next, master Guan will show us the making process. it is also my first time to watch it we didn't have a roller. so we used the glass bottle to do it instead we sealed with the lid of the fl ashlight I remember that the street was full of the smell from frying Youjiao every household made it at that time they must make it because people exchanged it as gift they used to treat their guests to it besides, it had the good meaning the last time I made it was like 20 years ago mom, it has been ages since you made it last time the wrapper is so soft the handmade flour is so good it is more efficient with the machine. but the wrappers are firmer and softer made by hand it is incredibly soft it is th best I can do. I don't think you do it better than me the ancient got the talent to name things it is actually fried balls. but they named it Xiaokouzao (smelling balls) because it will crack after frying it is like smelling it is a vivid simile they start to crack, just like smiling every is smiling people have their own food that is eaten on the festival and it varies in different places but Cantonese people have more festive food to celebrate the spring festival every kind ha s its own meaning Jiandui means fortune Xiaokouzao means happiness Youjiao also means fortune try it so crisp so good it is crisp outside and soft inside it is so good. the inside is as soft as cakes you can press it with your finger. it is so soft it is the same as that in my memory some must be wondering how they can get it we have the collaboration. so you can get it on our online shop how many kinds of desserts we can get? 5 kinds. because it is a good number Youjiao, Xiaokouzao, Dansan, Baoyusu and Congmibing you don't have to bother frying them at home they are available in our shop I will show you what is in it. master Guan, thank you for showing us the cooking process I will speak ill of you 200g Dansan because it is so light already the two weigh 300g, Niuerzai and Cuimibing the two are 400g, Xiaokouzao and Youjiao the packaging is transparent check whether it is crushed already just a few pieces. it is ok it smells so good with salted eggs, it is savoury and crisp much better than that I bought before Congyoucuimibing. it is heavy it is not hollow in the center. it won't break I thought it would be hard. but I am wrong. it is so crisp it tastes of spring onions compacted the fried rice the taste from spring onions and oil so crisp Niuerzai looks so firm it won't break easily some prefer the thin version of it some prefer the thick one but the thick one is the best and with a higher price it is so tasty. it has the good aftertaste try Xiaokouzao what a big portion Youjiao chubby and cute you won't feel so dry in your throat I have had a lot and I am not thirsty I don't know why you may feel so thirsty if you eat lots of fried food. maybe the oil used isn't good I have to say the oil they use is quality where can you get it now? it is available in our online shop you can search Pinchengji on Taobao and get it I look silly. but it is good stuff. the price is 128 yuan there are 5 kinds of desserts in it the reminder of Cantonese childhood it is delicate and affordable it is a perfect choice as a gift or to eat it yourself during the spring festival this is Taste of A City. please subscribe if you enjoy the content go and get it now
