This dish is a traditional high-grade nourishing soup. According to legend, Sean, the founding father of the Western Han Dynasty, was deeply frightened when he saw Liu Bang killing a famous soldier. He is determined to retreat bravely. After resigning from his post and living in seclusion in the mountains, he often collects stewed tremella to show his innocence. Both Fang and Du Ruhui, the founders of the Tang Dynasty, were prime ministers. They think that a gentleman should not be just innocent. What's the harm of shedding his blood if he dies worthily? Therefore, medlar is added to the stewed tremella, which means that people should be innocent and not afraid of death. This dish has been passed down to this day.
