Camellia oleifera

Camellia oleifera is one of the classic breakfast snacks in Sichuan and Chongqing. It is made of rice as the main ingredient, sieved into strips of ground rice and fried, and paired with rice cereal to cushion the bottom. The top-layered deep-fried rice noodles with a bright yellow color, also known as "馓 (sǎn)子", have a crispy taste and a crispy texture. Rice cereal is usually mixed with butter, chili pepper, Sichuan pepper, pepper, soybeans and peanuts, which is viscous and bright, and has a rich aroma. When eating, soak the steamed dumplings in the rice cereal and stir to soak, and the rice cereal is the best taste. Due to the strong and relatively greasy taste of camellia, it is recommended to eat it with white fungus soup and soy milk for the first time to reduce the greasy feeling.

With the passage of time, there are fewer and fewer stalls that insist on selling camellia. At present, it can only be found in a few breakfast shops on the street in the morning, and the price of a bowl is about 5 yuan. Readers can visit the store according to the recommended stores.
