foreign friends encounter traditional ningbo food ⑨ | brown glutinous rice ball in yinjiang -k8凯发官网

    located in haishu district, yinjiang town is a historic cultural town aged over 1,600 years. loko joined us on a trip there to explore a traditional ningbo food——the brown glutinous rice ball.

    thanks to the irrigation brought by tuoshan weir,the ancient town of yinjiang has always been a land of milk and honey (hence traditional pastry and the brown glutinous rice ball in particular). 

    within the vicinity, a small pastry store of local popularity, named “big-headed vegetable” – after the white-rooted turnip – rests in the small lane of tuoshan west road. its owner, zhou jinglong, is the inheritor of the yinjiang-flavor brown glutinous rice ball legacy (n.b.: yinjiang is a town of haishu district, ningbo city). 

    the first meeting between loko and zhou was also a "green"encounter between their nicknames——“the maize”and “the big-headed vegetable”. while zhou was expertly kneading, cutting, and forming balls, loko started his learning by watching and following step by step.
