What traditional snacks are recommended in Chongqing?

There are thousands of gourmet shops in Chongqing. Under the leadership of a batch of spicy food represented by small noodles and hot pot, some special snacks known only to local people have been buried.

As the center of Chongqing, Jie Fangbei has gathered famous snacks from all districts and counties in Chongqing, especially the delicious street on Bayi Road, which is overwhelming from beginning to end. For example, hot and sour powder, mountain dumplings, ice powder and other snacks are cheap and full of weight, which are deeply loved by tourists.

However, in Haochi Street, there is a snack that truly represents Chongqing-discus. Speaking of discus, it has a long history and is a popular snack in the palace of Ming Dynasty in China. Later, it spread to the people and gradually became popular in Chongqing with a history of hundreds of years.

It was probably when I was in my teens that I first came into contact with discus. When I was in junior high school, I met a stall selling discus on the street in Chongqing after school. When school was over, the students swarmed, chirped and shouted "discus", and stared at the vendors' movements.

Eggs, sugar and rice flour paste sizzle when they touch the hot soldering iron, which makes people feel a little scared. They can't help but take a half step back for fear of sizzling themselves.

After the stall owner turned it over three or two times, the discus was cooked quickly, and then the students couldn't wait to squeeze forward, holding change in their hands, trying to get the freshly baked discus before their companions.

Such a scene used to be common in Chongqing, but it gradually faded in the development of the city, and it was even difficult to find a small shop selling discus in the city center. After several searches, I finally found this small shop in an alley in Chongqing during an accidental visit.

Although I accidentally came to the mountain path to punch in, this small shop still brought me unexpected surprises. The shop is in an alley on the mountain path, and the booth is very lively, surrounded by a group of diners waiting to buy discus.

The discus is made by an authentic Chongqing aunt and is very enthusiastic. While making discus, she chatted with diners with great skill. The signboard of the shop shows the different tastes of discus, which is much richer than the simple discus before, including red bean flavor, jam flavor, mung bean flavor and soybean flavor. ...

Although the taste is changeable, the characteristics of discus itself are still the same as before. Stimulated by ironing, the discus is golden and soft. Although it is small, it can make us feel infinite sweetness.

Of course, the price of discus is not as cheap as before, roughly doubled, but compared with other snacks in online celebrities, the price of discus is still very close to the people. The original discus is only 1 yuan, the most expensive taste is 2 yuan. Where can I find such cheap snacks in Chongqing?

Youpin chose a red bean-flavored discus, waited for about a quarter of an hour, and was burnt immediately when he got it. After blowing away the hot air gently, I smelled a thick fragrant rice. I took a bite, sweet, and the taste seemed to be similar to what I used to eat.

Although the discus is small, I don't know if it's my illusion, but the taste is very strong, probably because I added childhood memories.
