Lian shui tie hoof

Tie hoof, a specialty of Lianshui County, has a history of more than 100 years. According to legend, in Daoguang Year of Qing Dynasty, the market here was active, and merchants had frequent contacts. Brother Zheng Yunfu, the chef of Gaogou Town, refined the hooves in order to add one more kind of snacks to the guests. At that time, only four companies in the town could produce and supply.
