Origin and Meaning of Oil Fragrance

Yuoxiang, also known as "deep-fried noodle cake", has a deep history in the ancient civilizations of Central and East Asia. As a part of traditional Chinese cuisine, its origin can be traced back to the folk culinary practices of many centuries ago. Due to its golden appearance and crispy texture, it is often regarded as a symbol of "ten thousand taels of gold", signifying wealth and prosperity. In addition, due to the repeated frying process, it is also regarded as a symbol of resilience and perseverance despite all the trials and tribulations of its preparation. Oil fragrance is not only a delicacy, but also carries rich cultural connotations. In traditional Chinese culture, oil incense is often used as offerings for rituals and festivals, symbolizing a good harvest, good luck and reunion. In some minority cultures, oil incense is given a special symbolic meaning, such as the Uygur people in the traditional festivals to eat oil incense, to show celebration and gratitude.
