Laba beans
Overview
The Laba Festival is here. There are many Laba Festival delicacies, among which Laba beans are my favorite. Every year during the Laba Festival, I pickle a few jars and eat them slowly. The rich aroma of self-fermentation is very delicious when eaten in porridge, steamed buns, stir-fries, stews, and stews with seasonings.
