Recently, under the background of the smooth development of the Xiangwan Cultural Conservation and Inheritance Project, the residents of the Shuiyong Community in Xiangwan Street, Xiangzhou District, Zhuhai City, have been busy making local delicacies - fried heaps and tea fruits.
After the frying heap was made, a woman shouted in dialect, attracting passers-by around to stop and watch.
In Shui Yong Hang Village, the fried heap is a symbol of festivity, and it was once a delicacy that could only be eaten during the New Year's Festival and when building a house.
