Enjoy | 春天的味道是甜的 Spring Is Sweet

都说成都是小吃的国，第一个在你脑子里蹦跶的小吃是哪个？伤心凉粉、锅盔、担担面还是钟水饺？你说你不能吃辣？Nonono, 不能吃辣不代表就与成都小吃无缘，糯米制的甜食不仅不辣，而且软糯有嚼劲，深受成都朋友们的喜爱。

As people always say, Chengdu is the kingdom of snacks, so what is the first snack that comes to your mind? Sad Jelly, Guokui, Dan Dan Noodles or Zhong Dumplings? Piquancy is not your cup of tea? No, no, no, it doesn't mean you have to say goodbye to Chengdu snacks if you can't bear the piquancy. Since Chengdu is the kingdom of snacks, how can there be no sweet snacks?

糖油果子也叫天鹅蛋，是成都著名的传统小吃，一千多年前的宋代管它叫焦䭔（jiao dui）。捏粉子、烧油、下红糖，待油烧沸后就让一个个粉团子在红糖油锅中泡澡，热油被粉团吸收再渗出，不停发出让人流口水的“滋滋”声，等到小粉团一个个都嘭、嘭、嘭起来，裹上糖衣后便可出锅。如果你守着师傅要一份现炸的糖油果子，你一定会感到自己被清甜的香气包围。迫不及待吃上一个，清脆的糖衣咔嚓作响，酥松软糯的内芯一分为二，红糖、糯米、芝麻在你嘴里香气爆炸，一次能吃一大筐！

The Fried Sweet Ball, also named Swan Eggs, is a famous Chengdu snack. More than 1,000 years ago during the Song Dynasty, people called it Jiao Dui. To make it, prepare glutinous rice, heated oil added with brown sugar. After the oil is boiled, put the rice balls to the hot brown sugar oil pot. The hot oil will be absorbed by the balls and then exuded, and the "Zi~Zi~" sound makes you can't wait to have a bite. Wait until the little balls are swelled and covered with sugar, and then they can be scooped up. If you are lucky enough to observe the chef making Fried Sweet Balls, you would be able to feel the sweet atmosphere that surrounds you. An eager bite makes the balls crack in your mounth and the glutinous fillings become two parts. Brown sugar, glutinous rice and sesame mingle togother. How delicious!

红糖糍粑是另一种形式的糯米制品小吃，被亲切地称为“火锅伴侣”，是一道用于开胃解辣的必点小吃。常见于各色火锅、串串店和中餐厅。将糯米煮熟，像砸年糕一样重力击打并碾压糯米，使其变得粘稠后做成方形，切片下锅油炸，炸至金黄，糯米被一层硬壳包裹后便可出锅，再淋上提前熬好的红糖汁、撒上花生面儿……口感不像糖油果子那么有嚼劲，但也是外皮酥脆，内里更软绵。如果你正被辣的“吸溜吸溜”、面红耳赤，一块红糖糍粑下去可保你无虞。

The Brown Sugar Glutinous Cake is made of glutinous rice. People cordially call it "Hot Pot Partner", for it is a must-have appetizer snack for relieving the piquancy and often seen in some hot pot, Chuan Chuan and Chinese restaurants. First, boil the glutinous rice, and emphatically hammer and roll it into cube shape like making rice cakes . Fry it after slicing up. Wait until the slices are fried to golden color with a crispy shell. Now, they are half-done. After scooping them up, pour the prepared brown sugar sauce and peanut powders. The Brown Sugar Glutinous Cake is not as chewy as the Fried Sweet Ball, but it also has a crispy shell and soft fillings. If your face turned red because of piquancy, try the Cake and it would never disappoint you.

每种食物都有自己的声音，前两种小吃就是被油炸的“滋滋”声，那么当你听到“砰、砰、砰”的声响时，就是另一种特色小吃三大炮了。由于案板一边放有钢碟，当一坨坨糍粑团子被甩到案板时，会击打震动发出金属响声，就听着“砰砰砰”三声，三坨糍粑又从案板飞向对面斜靠的竹簸上滚入下面装满芝麻粉、黄豆粉的竹簸中，此时再将三坨糍粑捡入盘中(此时糍粑已自然地裹上了一层粉末)，浇上浓汁，就可以吃啦！入口仍感温热，香甜可口，不黏不腻又会及时化渣。在逛到腿脚酸痛的时候，来上一份三大炮，小编还能再怒走十公里！（呵呵呵呵）

Every kind of food has its own sound, like the sound "Zi~Zi~" of the two former snacks. However, when you hear "Bang! Bang! Bang!", you'd know it is another unique snack, the Three Cannons. As the steel plate is placed on the side of the chopping board and glutinous cake balls are thrown onto the chopping board one by one, they will hit the metal and produce a "Bang! Bang! Bang!" sound. After the three glutinous cake balls fly through a bamboo fan and fall into another fan which is filled with sesame powder and soybean flour, they are quickly covered by thick powders. And being dished up and poured with delicious sauce, the balls are now ready for you to eat! They taste warm and sweet, not too sticky but easily dissolved. When I'm tired of hanging out I will have a dish of Three Cannons and feel fully powered! (Lol)

就酱！小编抹抹嘴巴下楼去二医院口子上买糖油果子了~ 拜

So that's all! I'm gonna buy some Fried Sweet Balls in the intersection near No.2 Hospital~ Bye!
