It can be compared to Su Dongpo, also known as Su Shi, because braised pork is called Dongpo pork;

When Su Dongpo was the governor of Hangzhou, he dredged the West Lake and made it for the people. A good thing.

After the West Lake is dredged, the surrounding fields are no longer afraid of waterlogging or drought. This year the weather was good again, and crops in the four townships of Hangzhou had a bumper harvest. The common people were grateful for the benefits of Su Dongpo's dredging of the West Lake. During the New Year, they all came to pay him New Year greetings by carrying pigs and wine carriers.

Su Dongpo received a lot of pork and asked people to cut it into cubes and cook it until it was red and crispy. Then, according to the roster of migrant workers dredging the West Lake, he gave each family one piece and distributed the meat to everyone for the New Year. . In the peaceful years, every household lived happily. At this time, they saw Su Dongpo sending someone to deliver meat, and everyone was even more happy. The old one laughs, the young one jumps. Everyone praised Su Dongpo as a good official and called the pork he sent "Dongpo Pork". At that time, the owner of a large restaurant saw everyone praising "Dongpo Pork", so he discussed with the chef to cut the pork into cubes. When cooked red and crispy, it is also called "Dongpo Pork".

As soon as this new dish came out, the restaurant’s business was booming. Customers kept coming from morning to night, and even if they had to kill ten pigs every day to sell it, the owners of other restaurants were jealous and started to learn how to make it. For a time, no matter how big or small, every restaurant had "Dongpo Pork". Later, after a public discussion among colleagues, "Dongpo Pork" was designated as the first dish in Hangzhou. Su Dongpo was an upright man and was not afraid of powerful people. The traitorous officials in the court who offended him originally hated him. At this time, seeing that the people in Hangzhou loved him so much, I felt very uncomfortable. One of them, a censor, disguised himself as a censor and came to Hangzhou to find trouble, deliberately trying to frame Su Dongpo.

On the first day that the censor arrived in Hangzhou, he had dinner in a restaurant. The waiter had to ask him to order. When he looked at the menu, the first dish was "Dongpo Pork." He frowned and thought about it. He was so happy that he slapped the table and shouted, "I want this first dish." He had eaten "Dongpo Pork" and thought it tasted really good. When he asked the official, he learned that "Dongpo Pork" was the first famous dish discussed by his colleagues. So he put away the recipes from all the restaurants in Hangzhou and returned to Beijing happily. After the imperial censor returned to Beijing, he immediately went to see the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Su Dongpo is corrupt and perverting the law in Hangzhou, doing all kinds of evil! Do the people want to eat his flesh?" The emperor asked, "How do you know? What's the proof?" The censor handed over the large pile of greasy recipes. The emperor was a fool. When he looked at the recipe, he was indiscriminate and issued an imperial edict to dismiss Su Dongpo from his post and send him to Hainan. After Su Dongpo was dismissed from his post and exiled to the army, the people of Hangzhou could not forget his benefits and continued to praise him as before. In this way, "Dongpo Pork" has been passed down from generation to generation, and to this day, it is still a famous dish in Hangzhou.
