Tibetan pastries
Tibetan pastries are a specialty snack of Diqing. The most common varieties include fried dough twists, "Basa" pastries, "Knot of Good Fortune" fried dough, longan buns, and fried "Xulu Xulu," among others. These are often served during festive celebrations to entertain guests. Zhongdian Tibetan pastries are known for being crispy, delicious, flaky, and not greasy. Fried dough twists, called "Shanna" in Tibetan, are made from refined flour, butter, sugar, and other ingredients kneaded into the shape of a lucky knot and then deep-fried in boiling oil, making them an ideal food for hosting guests and festival celebrations.
