Red Army Guokui
Red Army Guokui is one of the famous local delicacies in Hadapu, with a long history of preparation, diverse appearances, flat bottoms, and raised tops that resemble peonies and helmets—hence the name "Guokui," also called "Qiongguo." Baked with specially made stove ash, it is dry, crispy, fragrant, delicious, and has a lingering aftertaste. Guokui was the most premium food offered by the people of Hadapu to the Red Army during the Long March. Later, the locals modified its appearance to consist of eight petals, symbolizing the Red Army’s octagonal caps, and renamed it Red Army Guokui in commemoration.
