chuanbei bean jelly
Sichuan's famous snack, North Sichuan jelly, was originally a farmhouse snack and has a history of more than 90 years. Since its inception in the late Qing Dynasty, North Sichuan jelly has been famous in Bashu for its unique red, spicy, delicious and refreshing Sichuan style, which has been passed down to this day. At that time, Xie Tianlu, a former farmer in Jiangcunba, Nanchong County, set up a shed to sell Dandan jelly in Zhongdukou. His jelly was finely made, and it was unique from grinding and stirring to seasoning and flavor. People praised it after tasting it. Xie jelly became famous. Later, farmer Chen Hongshun carefully studied the making process of Xie jelly, took its strengths and improved it, and the making process of jelly was further improved. He chose fresh white peas and ground them with a small mill. He paid great attention to the stirring heat. The jelly he made was fine and soft, soft, clear but opaque, fine and continuous, and the seasonings were matched with flavor and more ingenuity. In less than a year, Chen jelly became famous in northern Sichuan, and "North Sichuan jelly" also spread like wildfire. To this day, some jelly shops in Nanchong City, Chengdu-Chongqing and other places still use "North Sichuan jelly" as their signboard, and their business is booming and popular. When the older generation of proletarian revolutionaries Zhu De and Luo Ruiqing returned to Nanchong to inspect their work during their lifetime, they specially tasted North Sichuan jelly.
