BEIJING, July 23,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- While people from all over the
country are still enjoying steaming hot rice, the iced rice
from Changle District in Fuzhou, capital of east China's Fujian
Province has attracted numerous diners with its unique
refreshing taste.
With the arrival of the scorching heat, this heat-relieving food
rooted in Changle has not only gained popularity domestically but
also spread overseas, becoming a new favorite for summer
delicacies.
Located in the Kuiqiao Night Market of Changle District, the
Liangliang Iced Rice Restaurant is always packed by 4 pm every day. Here, the iced rice, with its
sweet glutinous rice, clear sugar water, refreshing shaved ice,
sweet fruits, and crispy peanuts, has won unanimous praise from
diners.
"Since the arrival of summer, many local people and tourists
come to eat iced rice, and there are many takeout orders. We can
sell more than 1,000 bowls of iced rice every day," said the person
in charge of the restaurant.
With the opening of the Fuzhou Metro Line 6, the popularity of
Changle iced rice has further increased, becoming the "internet
celebrity" food of the night market.
The person in charge of the Liangliang Iced Rice Restaurant said
that they have specially consulted the senior people in the
countryside for the skills of cooking to ensure that every mouthful
of iced rice is full of chewiness and sweetness.
With the change of public taste, iced rice made from taro paste
and sago instead of rice has also become a rising star, favored by
young people. And the ice water, as the exclusive secret recipe of
each iced rice restaurant, is the indispensable ingredient.
Changle is not only a domestic tourist destination but also a
hometown of many overseas Chinese. Iced rice not only makes
domestic tourists yearn for it but also has been taken to
the United States, Spain, and other countries.
Iced rice, with its unique refreshing taste and profound
cultural heritage, has not only set off a heat-dispelling craze in
the summer in China but also shown
the endless charm of Chinese cuisine internationally.
