Hsiao's Scallion Oil Rice Cake Introduction
Rice cakes are an important symbol of rice food culture, and the "Scallion Nine-Layer Cake" developed in Xiluo is the essence of it. Not only is quality rice used, but the production process is also intricate. It requires selecting old rice that has been stored for over a year, grinding it into a rice batter, pouring it into a steaming tray, and steaming it into a thin layer, which is then carefully stacked layer by layer to complete the dish. This results in a unique appearance with layers of different colors, giving rise to the name "Nine-Layer Cake." The "Nine-Layer Cake" can be enjoyed hot or allowed to cool, offering two distinct textures and flavors. Located beside Jianxing Road and Guangfu West Road in Xiluo, "Hsiao's Scallion Rice Cake" has become a staple breakfast for the locals. The steamed Nine-Layer Cake topped with fragrant crispy scallions and locally sourced soy sauce enhances the cake's sweet and savory flavors. Starting sales at 5 AM, the scallion rice cakes are usually sold out by around 11 AM, so visiting tourists need to wake up early to enjoy this treat! Store specialties: Scallion Cake, Tofu Soup
