After beginning of autumn, the old Suzhou people walked the streets and lanes, and there were chicken heads and rice heads on the autumn menu. Chicken rice head is only available at this time. It is said that it has only been on the market for two months and will be on the market soon. The common practice of chicken rice head is to make soup or cook rice, and stir-fry with shrimp, lotus root and water chestnut. It can be said that it is quite delicious. If you have the opportunity to go to Suzhou, you must try this old Suzhou cuisine.
There is also a chestnut that everyone must love to eat. The most familiar way to eat is to stir-fry chestnuts with sugar. There are stalls selling sugar-fried chestnuts in the streets, and you can smell the fragrance from a distance, which makes people drool. But Suzhou has a way to eat chestnut roast chicken. Chestnuts can absorb the fat of chickens. Listen, do you really want to try? If you live in Suzhou, you will have a good time this season.
There is also a water chestnut on Suzhou's autumn food list, and many people may not know what it is. My impression of water chestnut is that you can eat it when the water is boiling, but people in Suzhou use water chestnut in different ways and cook all kinds of dishes. There is a dish called Lotus Pond Sanbao, which is fried with water chestnut, lotus root and lotus seed. You can also roast pork ribs with water chestnut, which is full of color and flavor. Is it to subvert the impression of water chestnut in your mind?
