Hello everyone, I am Ramen those things, I engaged in Lanzhou beef noodle industry for many years, for all over the catering food snacks quite understand.

The pot helmet is one of the eight strange things in Shaanxi, and its name comes from the fact that its shape looks like a helmet, so it is called the pot helmet. The production process of the helmet is very delicate, and has always been known as "dry, crispy, white, fragrant" four distinctive features. The production of helmets is oil and flour, after the fire kang system, hollow inner shape, outside the crisp, and the internal layer, the side of the thicker, at the same time can be done to absorb the soup, but not leak soup. And about the origin of the pot helmet, there are a lot of different say, here we talk about the origin of the pot helmet.

Folk about the origin of the helmet has a lot to say, like the earliest story about the origin of the helmet can be traced back to the period of the Shang Dynasty, rumor has it that Zhou Wenwang Zhou Zhou is the helmet was used as a soldier's rations, in the area of Shaanxi Xifu, there is still a variety of helmets called the "king of the helmets".

But in addition to the above about the origin of the pot helmet, there is another folk saying is that the origin of the pot helmet and the Qin Dynasty, according to legend, the Qin army in the same six countries in the war invented the pot helmet.

In addition, there is also a saying that the helmet originated in the Tang Dynasty when the construction of the Qianling Mausoleum, the craftsmen invented the helmet as the people's rations, the local people called the Qianzhou helmet.

Like this folk snack, in fact, it is difficult to really understand its true origin, because there will be very few historical documents to record this kind of snack, and this kind of snack can be passed down to the present day, most of them are people's oral tradition continued down the practice.

We can not really determine the true origin of the helmet, but we can be sure of one thing is that the birth of the helmet and the ancient times of war and labor are inextricably linked to the helmet, because of the particularity of this food, easy to carry and not easily deteriorate, but also a key point is that the top of the satiation of hunger and the practice of simple and convenient, so that it would be said its origin should be very early, so it will continue to this day.
