In ancient times when there was no refrigerator, leftovers were often thrown away. However, one celebrity didn't throw it away. It was used to entertain guests and gained a good reputation. This man is Li Hongzhang. When you open the emblem menu, the first course is called "Li Hongzhang hodgepodge". This dish is named after Li Hongzhang, which naturally implies bell. Li Hongzhang hosted American guests during his visit to the United States. After three rounds of wine, the taste was mixed, and the family secretly reported that there was no main course for dinner. Because it was already late at night and there was nowhere to buy food, Li Hongzhang hesitated a little and said a few words to his family, who went out with a smile. After a while, the main course came up, a huge soup bowl filled with colorful food. Li Hongzhang invited the guests to enjoy it together. American politicians ask, what is this dish? Li Hongzhang said, new dishes, chowder! After tasting, the guests were full of praise. Since then, Li Hongzhang's hodgepodge has swept the world. Actually, there are no new dishes here. It's obviously leftovers at noon. When Li Hongzhang was in a hurry, he remembered that he often mixed several different dishes with unique tastes, so he ventured abroad to try, but he didn't want to get a miraculous effect, and the flowers inside the wall were fragrant outside the wall. In today's Anhui cuisine, the ingredients of Li Hongzhang's hodgepodge are sea cucumber, fish maw, squid, magnolia slices, yuba, chicken, ham, egg yolk, pigeon eggs, pig liver, scallops, mushrooms, salted duck egg yolk, spinach and chicken soup. There is no way to prove how much flavor it retained at that time. Chowder became a famous dish, stained with Li Hongzhang's light. At the same time, Li Hongzhang also stole other people's patents. Is Li Hongzhang the only one who likes chowder? Kong Lingyi, the 76th Duke of Feast, is one of the princes. An old lady named Kong Demao wrote an anecdote about the Inner Temple of Confucius, which recorded that Qi Huangong liked to eat "dregs" mixed with other people's leftovers, which was very delicious: "There are two' big families', the Chiang family, who were officials in Daotai and other places before the Qing Dynasty, and my father often went with them. Whenever they have a happy birthday party at home, my dad sends someone to send a pot to ask for' dregs'. People are embarrassed to really give' slag dishes'. Now I'm going to cook some dishes and try to make them look like some. " Isn't this "scum" a "hodgepodge" When Han became emperor, he was a building guard and an official of Jingzhao. Lou was praised by people at that time and even gained a reputation. History of the Han Dynasty: A Biography of a Ranger selected Taiping Guangji, Yulin and Shi Shuo. It is said that this man created a kind of delicious food called "Five Houshi" by contemporary people. "Five Hou mackerel" is a hodgepodge. However, after all, this building is not as famous as Li Hongzhang, and it has suffered a YaBaKui.
