Brief introduction of prickly wool balls
I heard that Emperor Qianlong had a greedy mouth. When he went to Guang Chen in the south of the Yangtze River, the local officials in charge of reception provided local famous dishes for him to taste Jiangnan cuisine. That year, Emperor Qianlong came to Tangqi again. Renhe county magistrate arrived in Tangqi ahead of time, personally called all the famous chefs in Tangqi, called them to the palace, and asked them to make famous dishes with local characteristics.

This is a headache, and those famous chefs are dumbfounded. Why, well, Emperor Qianlong Tang Qi has been here many times, and he has eaten almost all the famous dishes you mentioned, whether it is crucian carp or shredded eel in Dingshan Lake. What can he eat this time? So, the chefs couldn't help but dry the rice noodles with wet hands. You look at me and I look at you. It's embarrassing.

On that day, Gan Long's dragon boat arrived at the Palace, and the chefs were in a hurry. They have to choose the dishes they are usually good at and cook by themselves.

One of the chefs is usually good at braising lion's head in soy sauce. So, he chopped the minced meat and made some meatballs by hand, hoping to make braised lion heads. The meatballs have just been kneaded. Think wrong. Last time Emperor Qianlong came to Guang Chen and ate this lion's head, the reaction was not very good. If I cook it for him this time, I will definitely listen to the scolding. So, while playing with the meatballs I just held in my hand, I was thinking about a new way to burn them.

But I knew there that the new cooking method of meatballs had not been figured out, but the meatballs in my hand accidentally fell into the wet glutinous rice washed by peach snails next to the glutinous rice balls. The meatballs fell into the sticky rice, and all the sticky rice immediately stuck to the meatballs. When the chef picked them up, he found that meatballs were like a prickly hair covered with thorns. His eyes suddenly lit up and he had an idea. He simply put all the balls in glutinous rice, rolled them up and steamed them in a pot. Thus, a brand-new meatball was born.

When these meatballs were steamed, the chef took one and tasted it himself. He tasted it and immediately called the county magistrate of Renhe County with a smile. The county magistrate ran over and saw that his eyes shone. Hey, I haven't seen this dish before. I don't know how it tastes, so I ate one. Before he finished eating, he gave a thumbs up: "Ling, really Ling!" " It was immediately sent to Gan Long. I've seen a lot of good dried dishes, but I've never seen such meatballs. Once I ate them, I even claimed that they were good. People called the chef and asked him face to face, "What's the name of this dish?" The chef wanted to say that this dish didn't have a name yet, but when he thought about it, the glutinous rice on the meatball stood up like a bristle, and he casually said, "This is a bristle meatball."

In this way, the prickly meatballs have been handed down and become a famous dish in Tangqi.
