但用老醋做的月饼你吃过吗？中秋将至，山西太原的一款醋味月饼成了爆款，让这个中秋可甜也可酸。

 

A unique kind of mooncake — filled with mature vinegar — recently attracted followers in Taiyuan, Shanxi province.

 

这种老醋月饼的馅料，有芝麻、葡萄干、果脯等，馅料和制作都保留了传统晋式月饼的工艺。但老醋月饼的奥妙还在一个“醋”字，加入了手工八年八度的老陈醋，醋香浓郁。

 

虽然有了酸度很高的老陈醋加持，但老醋月饼并没有酸酸的口感。醋的香味中和了糖的甜度，解油解甜解腻，每天能卖出4000多个。

 

Based on traditional production processes and fillings, including different nuts and dried fruits, mature vinegar is added, which greatly improves its flavor. The vinegar removes some of the sweetness and greasy taste while leaving no sour flavor.

 

除了老醋月饼，近几年，各地都根据自己的地方特色，推出了创新口味的月饼。

 

In recent years, various regions have introduced innovative mooncake flavors based on their local characteristics.
