Camellia oleifera

Camellia oleifera
Sichuan camellia is a unique snack in Sichuan and Chongqing, and it is not the same thing as the camellia in the north. Rice flour is used to make a thick rice milk, sprinkled with diced kohlrabi, steamed dumplings, crispy soybeans and peanuts, soft and crispy, rich in taste.
The taste of oil tea is light, the locals like to use it for breakfast, and the oil tea in the tourist gathering areas such as Kuanzhai Alley and Jinli is cooked with oil and sea pepper, which tastes spicy and is not a traditional practice. Camellia oleifera is now rare in Chengdu urban area, and it can occasionally be encountered in some small places around it, but the quality cannot be guaranteed.
