In 1996, Xiao Jia and his wife opened this twist oil tea shop on Wuxing Street, more than 20 years have passed, Xiao Jia has become an old Jia, but the oil tea still maintains the flavor of the year. This shop does not rely on the high foot traffic, nor does it have the outstanding products of other well-known small shops, and a simple bowl of oil tea only relies on the word of mouth of diners, and its fame is gradually becoming louder. Despite this, it is still dominated by local long-time diners, especially in the neighborhood. Xiao Jia twist oil tea is only made for breakfast, and the store will be closed at lunchtime.
Xiao Jia twist oil tea looks inconspicuous, but it tastes unique. It is light gray, quite similar to cement slurry, the ingredients in Camellia oleifera are abundant, peanuts, soybeans, hemp leaves are distinct, the huge twist flowers lie horizontally in the bowl, and the whole bowl of Camellia oleifera exudes a faint fragrance. The entrance of Camellia oleifera is smooth, salty, fresh and fragrant, the peanuts and hemp leaves that go into the mouth are crisp, and the yellow flesh is soft and glutinous. The twist flower is very soft after soaking the oil tea, and the entrance is tenacious, which not only solves the single feeling of drinking oil tea, but also enhances the feeling of satiety.
Diners who have been to the southwest know that camellia is also a common food on the table in the southwest. However, although it is also called Camellia oleifera, Camellia oleifera in the southwest and Camellia oleifera in Shaanxi are different in terms of ingredients and taste. Southwest Camellia oleifera uses rice as the main ingredient, which is spicy and greasy, while Southwest Camellia oleifera uses flour as the main ingredient, and the flour is fried and then added to rapeseed oil or butter to boil into a paste.
Xiao Jia's oil tea twist shop is simple, and a large pot of oil tea is placed at the door, reminding passers-by of its identity. The hygiene of the store is acceptable, the tables, chairs and benches are clean, and there are few oil stains. As the boss, the husband and wife have a warm attitude and greet the guests very kindly. It's just that the small shop is generally only open until half past ten, and diners who want to taste the camellia twist flower should try to hurry as early as possible.
