The origin and significance of dustpan hairpin
Once upon a time, a middle-aged man left home to study art, and I haven't heard from him for more than three years. The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the man suddenly went home, and the family was ecstatic. Neighbors heard the news and came to congratulate him. In the evening, the wife told her husband that for more than three years, thanks to the help of the villagers, she was able to maintain her life. The man was deeply moved. In order to repay the villagers, he and his wife discussed it and decided to cook a kind of food together on the Mid-Autumn Festival the next day to repay everyone.

At dawn the next day, the man got up, picked up a firewood knife and went straight to the mountain behind the house. In a short time, he found a bamboo with a thick bowl, chopped it into pieces, and woven it into a round bamboo plaque-dustpan. The wife sat next to her and thought, how to make food with the tools made by her husband? Seeing that her husband made it look like a full moon, she came up with a good idea. So, I quickly put my glistening rice into a stone bowl and mashed it, then diluted the broken rice flour into rice slurry, then scooped the rice slurry evenly into a dustpan with a small spoon, then put it into a pot, steamed the water in the pot to boil, opened the lid and took out the dustpan, and peeled off the "rice slurry" on the dustpan while it was hot. Cooked rice paste is white, thin and soft, like a full moon, and then wrapped in cooked ingredients, rolled up like a jade belt, so she casually named it "Dai hairpin"

All the villagers ate the novel food made by the couple together. They were full of smiles and praises. Some villagers gave birth to a son soon after eating the dustpan. The villagers asked them to introduce the cooking method of this food, and the couple told everyone without reservation. The women in the village quickly learned how to make them. Later, people felt that the "belt hairpin" was not appropriate enough, and after consultation, it was changed to "dustpan hairpin". From then on, every Mid-Autumn Festival, no matter how much food, the villagers always steamed a dustpan to taste. This custom has been passed down to this day, and more and more people eat this kind of dustpan, and the voice of praise for dustpan is getting wider and wider. Since then, it has become a famous Hakka-style snack.
