Sweet or savory, spicy or not
Chilies help the people of Wu-yuan cope with the humidity in their county, yet their most famous dishes are not spicy at all. They have strict rules that dictate which dishes are to be cooked with chilies - and which cannot go near it. This is great news for both visitors who love and abhor spicy food.
A green-colored snack, called Qingming fruit, can be found in every village in Wuyuan, located in the eastern province of Jiangxi.
The food, usually served at breakfast stalls, derives its name from the fact that it was first made during the springtime Qingming Festival, or Tomb-Sweeping Day. Now, it's served all year round.
