Tianjin twists are famous all over the world. Eighteenth Street twists, Goubuli steamed buns, and ear-eye fried cakes are known as the three unique delicacies of Tianjin. They are well-deserved Tianjin specialties. It has a long history and is very particular about the materials and craftsmanship. I am still far from reaching this level, so what I make is not Tianjin hemp flower, but Manbao’s small hemp flower. Small twists have moderate calories and low fat. It can be enjoyed casually or with wine and tea. It is an ideal snack. I remember when I was a child, my mother would fry a lot of twists every Chinese New Year. They had various flavors, including sweet, salty and sesame. When fried, the house would be filled with fragrance and I couldn’t stop eating them. In my memory, the New Year flavor is indispensable with twists. I have been making twists with my mother since I was a child. I also worked hard today and ran home at noon to fry the twists. It was crispy, delicious and extremely delicious.
