Qingming Food——Qingtuan

Overview

Qingtuan is a special snack of the Jiangnan generation. Eating Qingtuan during the Qingming Festival is an indispensable custom. Since there is no wheat straw pulp, I bought some wheat straw powder online, mixed it with glutinous rice flour, and then wrapped it with bean paste filling. It is not sweet but not greasy, and has a light but long grass aroma. The taste is also good.
