墨涵斋When it comes to snacks, the old Shaanxi people never say much, they just quietly throw out a lot of food to talk about. The dough meat bun is weak, and the mirror cake, the zong cake, and the oil cake alone are enough to make foreign tourists curious for a long time. Especially the oil cake that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a crispy surface and wrapped with sweet sugar fruit kernels. When you take a bite, your taste buds will be overwhelmed in minutes. Speaking of oil cakes, people in Jingyang will think of an old place-Lao Laojia. In 1981, Hou Housheng founded "Lao Laojia Oil Cake". After three generations, it was taken over by the old man's daughter-in-law Zhao Fengge. Until now, it is managed by the third generation, granddaughter Hou Jinxia and granddaughter-in-law Hou Ying. It has a history of 38 years. The old store has changed several times, from the earliest stall to the store, and the location has changed from the stadium to the Jinliu Village Vegetable Market to the current Yifu Primary School. In more than 30 years, people have changed, but the taste has remained the same for 30 years. Whether it is memory or inheritance, they bring the most delicious oil cakes to the people of Jingyang or everyone who comes to Jingyang. The boss told me that since many customers come to line up early every day to buy oil cakes, and many of them are big customers, they buy more than ten or twenty or even more at a time. They have to sell at least 1,000 oil cakes every day, so they get up at four or five o'clock every day to make dough and stuffing, and they have to work non-stop to prepare the materials needed for the day. One by one, steaming oil cakes are taken out of the oil pan, drained, and delivered to the hands. Due to the boss's skilled skills, it is done in one go, and it doesn't take too much time for customers to get the oil cakes they want. The old customers who come to eat oil cakes told me that the thin skin, rich stuffing, no additives, and pure handmade are the reasons why he often comes. The residents living around can't do without this sweet Lao Lao's oil cake every morning. The steaming oil cake symbolizes the prosperity of Lao Lao's oil cake business and the happy life of the people of Jingyang. Decades of persistence have made the Lao Lao family's oil cake delicious. Decades of persistence is also the character of the stubborn people of Jingyang. Take a bite of Jingyang's oil cake and make your ordinary life a little sweeter. If you like sweets, you may as well come and taste it!
