Shangqiu has a special classic sesame cake, which tastes crisp and delicious, and it has now changed from a regional cuisine to a national cuisine. This kind of sesame seed cake has one advantage, that is, it can be eaten without eating vegetables. It is salty and tasteless. Everyone usually sees that there are many sesame seeds outside, and the appearance is crisp and slag-dropping. That is Shangqiu's sesame seed cake. The difference between Shangqiu's sesame seed cake and other sesame seed cakes is that Shangqiu's sesame seed cake is hung from a high blast furnace by a hanging furnace, and it is baked, not baked, so it is different from our usual cake.

The baked Shangqiu sesame seed cake tastes very crisp.

The outside of Shangqiu sesame seed cake may be crisp and slag-dropping, but there are many layers in this sesame seed cake. Another point is that Shangqiu sesame seed cake uses sesame oil instead of our ordinary soybean oil, and when thirteen spices are put in it, the taste is very heavy. The fragrance emitted by sesame oil itself is extremely fragrant, which is still different from this ordinary soybean oil. The method of this Shangqiu sesame cake is a bit complicated. We need to mix out a dough first, then mix out a piece of crispy noodles with lard, pull the crispy noodles into a dough preparation, wrap the dough preparation into this dough preparation, then add thirteen spices and sesame oil, roll it up several times, roll it into a round pancake, sprinkle sesame seeds on it, and bake it in a blast furnace. The baked wheat cake is crisp outside and delicious inside.

The kind of baked wheat cake that we usually eat in the hanging furnace is actually the baked wheat cake in Shangqiu. It uses that kind of high stove, adds charcoal fire in the middle, and then all the walls of this blast furnace are covered with baked wheat cakes. When it comes out of the pot, the sesame seeds outside are crisp, fragrant and crispy. The most important thing about Shangqiu sesame cake is that sesame seeds must be put outside, and a lot of sesame seeds should be put, because sesame seeds and sesame oil dripping inside themselves will form a magical taste that echoes inside and outside, and it will taste more fragrant.

Shangqiu sesame seed cake is a special food, so it is impossible to cook it at home. At home, we can only use this pancake pan to bake it, and the taste is not as good as that baked. The sesame seed cake baked by this blast furnace is crisp in appearance and soft in the inside, and with thirteen spices, the taste is very good.
