What are the different "Dragon Boat Festival Seasonal Cuisine"?
First of all, of course, Zongzi is indispensable for the Dragon Boat Festival! Making zongzi with my mother is a good memory of many people's childhood. There are many tastes of zongzi, but the most classic taste in Ningbo people's memory is the simplest alkaline zongzi. Fresh glutinous rice, with the faint fragrance of Ruoye, dipped in a little rock sugar, the taste is reminiscent of the Dragon Boat Festival.
100-year egg
Preserved eggs are also a must-eat food for the Dragon Boat Festival. Henan preserved eggs, which had a history of more than 800 years at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, were once royal tributes. Preserved eggs are rich in nutrition, and their protein is beneficial to human body. The total amount of amino acids per100g preserved egg is as high as 32mg. Preserved eggs have a unique flavor, and vinegar is especially delicious! After the preserved eggs are shelled, they are covered with patterns. After cutting, it is divided into three circles of different colors. The outer ring is dark, crystal clear and hard, the middle ring is yellowish and soft, and the inner ring is golden yellow. This kind of preserved egg is not only good in color, but also cool, astringent and spicy. It's delicious when used as wine and porridge!

The steps of making salted duck eggs are not difficult, but it will take some time, so it is necessary to marinate some before this day, so that there will be a festive atmosphere when eating. If you eat salted duck eggs with oil and sand, you are really skillful. Although everyone can do it, it is still difficult to do it to the extreme.
