Special bean jelly

The starch of beans or sweet potatoes is diluted into paste by adding appropriate amount of water, and condensed into blocks after cooking, commonly known as "bean jelly". There are many kinds of bean jelly in Lianyungang, such as pea powder, mung bean powder and sweet potato powder, which are refreshing and fragrant. The production of bean jelly has its own tricks, which are often kept secret from others. There are two ways to eat bean jelly: hot and cold. To eat hot, put the bean jelly in a hot pan, fry it slightly, and take it out and cut it into pieces after there is a layer of brown skin at the bottom. Eat cold, that is, eat cold lead directly. Before eating, cut the bean jelly into blocks, or plane it into noodles, or leak it into a "giant salamander" shape with a colander in advance, put it in clear water, take it out when eating, and put seasonings according to customers' tastes, such as soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic paste, etc. People who like spicy food can also add some Chili sauce, which has a unique flavor. Eat jelly in summer to relieve summer heat and thirst; Eating bean jelly in winter and mixing peppers can dispel the cold. It's a pity not to try bean jelly when you come to Lianyungang.
