Many Oriental temples originally used incense as a 'refined offering' to the gods; the same was/is done with dragons. The energy released through burning, as well as the scent, taste and colour of the smoke make incense a complete 'meal' for most entities.
I'm not very experienced when it comes to personal interaction with dragons, so I'll leave your other questions to the dracophiles!
