What is "shaobing"

Shaobing is a type of Chinese flatbread that is commonly eaten for breakfast or as a snack. It is made from a simple dough of flour, water, and a small amount of salt, which is rolled out into thin sheets and then folded and layered with oil or lard to create flaky layers. The dough is then cooked on a griddle or in an oven until it becomes golden brown and crispy. Shaobing can be served plain or with various fillings, such as shredded pork, scallions, sesame seeds, or red bean paste. It has a crispy exterior and a soft, chewy interior and is often enjoyed with soy milk or tea. Shaobing is a popular street food in China and can also be found in Chinese bakeries and restaurants around the world.
