Pingwang Pickles

Pingwang Pickles

　　Pickles served with congee perfectly embody the phrase “plain congee with simple side dishes,” offering a refreshing and delicious taste. Vegetables and fruits from summer and autumn are pickled to make these pickles, which can be enjoyed not only in winter but also through the following spring—making them both convenient and economical.

　　　　The Pingwang pickles from Wujiang are renowned across China for their high quality and excellent flavor. For example, the honey-glazed ginger slices are soaked in a brownish-yellow brine, and each tender slice bursts with a sweet, crisp, and fresh flavor when you take a bite.
