Three cannons:Fragrant and sweet, bombarding your taste buds
Three cannons, a snack mainly made of glutinous rice, has been widely praised for its crispy exterior and tender, sweet and delicious taste. After steaming and cooking, glutinous rice becomes soft, sticky, and sweet. After deep frying, it becomes golden and crispy. Finally, it is sprinkled with seasonings such as soybean flour and sesame candy, which makes people salivate. Eating one bite of the three cannons feels like a burst of sweetness and happiness on the tongue, making one unable to resist the urge to take another bite. Three cannons are not only a delicious snack, but also a way to inherit and promote tradition, allowing people to feel the profound cultural heritage and historical accumulation while tasting delicious food.
The birthplace of the three cannons is in Chengdu, but due to the rapid development of Chengdu, this traditional craft is gradually declining.
There are two places in Chengdu where you can easily get three cannons: Wenshu Fang and Jinli. And other places such as “cultural parks” and “people’s parks” can only be fully enjoyed when holding large-scale park activities.
