In 1950s and 1960s, the staple food in Pingshan County was still mainly corn flour and millet flour. In 1970s and 1980s, eating white flour was common in Pingshan County, and cooking increased. White flour products are mainly steamed bread. Pancakes, noodles, jiaozi and pies are all available, while corn, millet and sweet potatoes only play a role in regulating life. ?
In Pingshan City, the most attractive and prosperous booth in the morning is snacks. Diners sat around the wooden table, chatting while eating and telling all kinds of stories. The stall owners are busy making promises to the diners. This snack includes scones, tea noodles, bean jelly, oil ghosts, sesame cakes, pancakes and so on. Just the cooked Huang Cancan and the delicious millet porridge make people drool. Fried "Oil Ghost" is the most unique flavor snack in Pingshan. ?
This fried "oil ghost" looks no different from fried dough sticks, but it is folded in the middle, just like a little man kneeling. It is said that frying "oil ghosts" means frying oil. In the Song Dynasty, Qin Gui betrayed the country and was hated by the world. So he unfolded two pieces of dough, one was a traitor and the other was his wife Wang. They twined and bound each other and cooked them in a frying pan. However, a chef in Pingshan was ingenious and folded the middle of the "oil ghost" and fried it. Kneel after frying, expressing hatred for treacherous court officials. When frying "oil ghost", the quality of flour is particularly high, and the proportion of water, alkali and salt used in dough mixing is very strict. After frying, it is crystal clear, crisp and delicious. When people eat it, they will think of Qin Gui as a traitor, and they will gnash their teeth until their mouths are full of oil. ?
Among the numerous flavor snacks in Pingshan, the baked sesame seed cake in the jar furnace is also a must.
