Fruit Pickles, Yunnan’s Very Own Summer Appetizer Snack【滇西小哥】

In Yunnan, fruit is not only used in dishes, but also mixed with salt and chili to make a refreshing, appetizing snack. For fruits that are too sour, you can add a little sugar. For sweeter fruits, just add some dipping chili, roasted chili powder, and a tiny bit of MSG. Sour, sweet, salty, and spicy all at once — it’s the kind of flavor that makes every Yunnan person’s mouth water the moment they see it.
When you have no appetite in summer, start with some fruit pickles to wake up your taste buds, then have a bit of cold noodles and green chili chicken to fill your stomach. Finish with a bowl of sweet chilled pineapple, and life feels truly wonderful...
