Oil Dong'er
The oil Dong'er mentioned here is not the "oil Dong'er" green vegetables that become sweet and glutinous after the frost in Hangzhou, but the oil dun cake, which is sometimes called Yu Dongdong and Yu Dong'er by Hangzhou people. Oil Donger is the deepest impression of many Hangzhou people in their childhood, the stall owner supports an oil pot, fried and sold, and the fragrance is attractive. Don't look at the small size of the oil Dong'er, in fact, the filling is super sufficient, the shredded radish, pickled cabbage, dried shrimp are fried in oil, and the noodles are mixed into a paste, fried in the pot, the outer skin is charred and crispy, the filling is soft and sweet, and the hot bite is very satisfying. Not only Hangzhou, but also Shanghai is also spreading this snack.
As the city changes, it is not so easy to find the oil winter. However, some people miss this taste and will make it at home. If you're lucky, you'll be able to come across stalls selling oil dong'er in the alleys of the old city areas such as Hanghai Road, Zhongshan South Road, Wushan, and Chengdong, but it's best to buy them from local stall owners, because the taste is more authentic.
