【Food in various forms】A delicacy that brings back childhood memories - candied haws of sugar

Overview

Whenever the topic of candied haws is mentioned, many people will recall their childhood... The past cannot be repeated, but some flavors can be copied. Growing up in the south, I have never tasted the authentic candied hawsed haws in the north, but I still miss the taste of the candied haws on a stick from my childhood. For candied haws, I always think that hawthorn is the most authentic. The red hawthorn balls are endearing, with sweetness wrapped in sourness and sourness with sweetness.
