Tangtuan: Nostalgia in Gu Mi Cuisine

Food culture is an important part of China traditional culture.

As the saying goes, food, clothing, housing and transportation are important events in life, and the food derived from them is a symbol of people enjoying life.

Tangxi, an ancient country with thousands of years of legends, has a traditional culture of more than 2,000 years, which has given birth to exquisite food. Ancient ancestors evolved thousands of delicious foods from a grain of rice and a grain of wheat, which are still enduring today.

Among the ancient foods, jiaozi is unforgettable because of its unique shape and taste. Jiaozi is round. Every festive season, jiaozi is a must-have food for every family, and you can experience the long-lost affection and homesickness in the reunion.

In the past, jiaozi's name was not dumplings, but Yuanxiao with Chinese cabbage stuffing. As for why it was later renamed Tang Tuan, it is said that it was related to Zhu Yuanzhang's garrison in western Shanxi.

Liu Zhibin, a native of Tangxi, was the first person to put this traditional food into the market. He rented a place in Tangxi Jiu Feng Immigrant Village to be a green wheat jiaozi. In order to make this traditional food more influential in the market, through hard work, Liu Zhibin passed the QS demonstration for Chiang Mai Tangtuan and won the title of famous product in Zhejiang Province.
