Lianshui qianzhang

【 Lianshui Qianzhang 】 is mainly distributed in Nanji, Xuji and huangying areas of Lianshui County. Since Liu An, the king of Huainan in the Western Han Dynasty, invented tofu, the method of making thousands of sheets has spread to northern Jiangsu.

They are local specialties of Lianshui, and their production skills are long. They are very popular bean products in people's daily life. Lianshui 1000 pieces are made of local unique soybeans, ground into pulp, boiled in a pot, salted and pressed with gauze. Littering is a key link in the process of making thousands of sheets, and the quality and taste of thousands of sheets are directly affected by the quality of brine.
