Jinshan Li's Rice Cake Shop (Fu Pin Traditional Cuisine) Introduction
A well-known rice cake shop in Jinshan District that has been in operation for over 30 years is a famous snack stall among locals. This small stall only sells a few simple delicacies like rice noodles, chilled cakes, starch noodles, and grass cakes, yet every day, a group of fans rides or drives from other places to buy these treats. The main reason is the owner's commitment, Xu Yuye, to the traditional methods of steaming rice to make rice noodles and starch noodles, which have remained consistent for 30 years, allowing people to savor the comforting taste of home. In particular, the starch cake, commonly known as "alkaline cake," is made entirely without borax, using only traditional rice. The process involves washing the rice, grinding it, drying it, and then kneading it, with every step done by hand. Coupled with a syrup made from malt and brown sugar, the enjoyment of each bite is truly irresistible.
