What does sugar oil mean?

Sugar oil refers to a kind of cake made in Shenyang in the old days. Its main ingredients are glutinous rice flour and red bean stuffing, and the outer layer is wrapped in fried cake paste. Sugar oil is one of the traditional cakes in Northeast China, with soft and waxy taste, crisp outside and soft inside, and moderate sweetness. Although there are many new varieties of cakes now, sugar and oil are still classic foods in the hearts of many old northerners.

Besides Shenyang, Sugar Oil also has its own unique "copywriting" in other areas. For example, in Hunan, people make stuffing with glutinous rice and mung beans, and then dip them in syrup and sesame seeds after cooking. This sugar oil is called "glutinous rice oil steamed bread". In Chongqing, stuffed with minced meat or bean paste, fried with pancakes. This sugar oil is called "pancake oil fruit".

The name of sugar oil comes from the fact that it uses a lot of sugar and oil in the production process. This is one of the reasons why it tastes delicious. But now people pay more attention to healthy diet, and the practice of sugar and oil is not very popular. Therefore, some people will inherit and protect sugar oil as a traditional food, and at the same time, they will not overeat.
