Jilin fried starch 煎粉 "Jian Fen"
Fried starch is a popular local snack in Jilin city. While it originated in Jilin, it has since gained popularity in Changchun, where residents are more likely to call it "stirred starch". Jilin's version is subtle and refreshing, while Changchun's is bold and more flavorful.
People in Jilin eat the starch with boiled tea eggs, but residents of Changchun have it with skewered snacks.
