As an old Xinxiang native, the main specialties of Xinxiang include the following: 1. Niu Zhongxi Shaobing.

Then you are totally wrong. Niu Zhongxi Shaobing is not an ordinary Shaobing. It is a flavored food made by Niu Zhongxi, a national-level Shaobing master, who has accumulated many years of experience. Niu Zhongxi's sesame pancakes are filled with fillings, have a crispy outer shell and are sprinkled with sesame seeds. They can be stored for more than a month in winter and still remain crispy and flavorless. The sesame seeds on the outside match the crispy dough, and there is no burden at all when biting into it.
