Braised pork belongs to the intersection of north and south, and its footprint can be found in every region of the eight major cuisines. For example, braised pork in Shi Mao belongs to Hunan cuisine, Dongpo pork is found in special dishes such as Zhejiang cuisine and Sichuan cuisine, and braised pork is also found in dried plum dishes of Hakka culture ... but braised pork has formed its own unique flavor in different regions. In the history of Han people, braised pork is the most popular, although it is not as long as other dishes, because it is so popular that it is difficult for everyone to forget the memory of this taste bud. Most families have cooked braised pork, and cooking doesn't require much skill. Raw pork, soy sauce or sugar are all easily available raw materials. It only takes time and careful stew to cook a delicious meal.
I think we all know that Dongpo pork, which is really devoted to the spread of braised pork, is still Su Dongpo's "slow fire and little water, only beautiful when cooked to a certain extent" in the Song Dynasty, or Su Dongpo devoted himself to scientific research and improved the recipe of private houses, and there is also "good but not thin, bamboo shoots braised pork". Brother Su Dongpo did follow the iron law of nutrition collocation and never getting tired of eating. Braised pork should belong to Anhui cuisine. More than 2000 years ago, the sage Mencius traveled around the world, recruiting disciples and teaching politics, metallurgy, economic development, literature, national defense, agriculture and animal husbandry, mainly including cooking and drinking.

During the Chu-Han dispute, there was a braised pork at the Hongmen banquet, which was a dish of Mencius hundreds of years ago. Therefore, it is unreasonable to include braised pork in Zhejiang cuisine. Sichuan is a dangerous beach. The view that Sichuan Road is more difficult to walk, from smelters, ceramics, kitchen utensils to the birthplace of mankind, has been handed down from the Central Plains, and it is unreasonable to classify it as Sichuan cuisine.
