Wu Dalang, this one? Three inches of bitter bark? Not only does she have a beautiful wife who has an affair, but she also has a successful career in cooking cakes.
Cooking cake is a kind of pasta in ancient times. Some people say that cooking cakes are not sesame cakes or scones. Actually, we all got it wrong.
Cooking cakes sold in Wu Dalang are neither baked cakes nor scones, but another kind of food. So, this is deeply branded? Wu Dalang? Labeled? Cooking cake? What is it?
Before figuring out the truth about cooking cakes, let's take a look at the cooking cakes in Wu Dalang.
Wu Dalang, a stranger in yanggu county, made a living by selling kitchen cakes.
His kitchen cake stall not only stood firm at the entrance of the county yamen, but also bought a house in the county by relying on the income of kitchen cake. Even Simon, a prominent official in the county, knows Wu Dalang's name and even takes care of his business. All these are enough to show that Wu Dalang's cooking cake, like his wife, tastes good and everyone loves it.
Since the business of cooking cakes is booming, what kind of food is this?
Because of the painful lesson of Wu Dalang, the sellers of baked wheat cakes from now on seem to be dwarfed. But there are people who do the opposite. A few years ago, there was a special snack. Wu Dalang sesame seed cake? , with the help of Wu Dalang's celebrity effect, at the same time, the taste is unique and the price is affordable, which is popular in the streets for a while. Therefore, in many people's subconscious, they think that the cooking cakes sold by Wu Dalang are just baked cakes and scones.
This snack is made of dough without fermentation, meat stuffing or vegetable stuffing, and then fried or baked at high temperature. This kind of cake is golden in color, different in thickness, sweet and delicious.
However, it is not difficult to find that Wu Dalang's cooking cakes are not fried or baked, but steamed.
In the 24th episode of the Water Margin, before Wu Song went to Tokyo on business, he earnestly told Wu Dalang:? If you sell ten cage cakes every day, you will only make five cages to sell from tomorrow. ?
Wu Song said? Fan cage? What does it mean? This fan cage is not only a measuring tool for cooking cakes, but also a making tool for cooking cakes. Fan cage, which is the present steamer and steamer drawer, was made of wood and bamboo sticks in ancient times, and stainless steel in modern times. It is a kind of utensil specially placed on boiling water and heated by steam.
Thus, cooking cake is steamed food, without frying or baking. Therefore, during the Northern Song Dynasty, cooking cakes, also known as? Steamed cake? .
Huang Chaoying, a Song Dynasty poet, wrote in "Miscellaneous Notes on Vegetables" that the pasta steamed in a steamer is called? Steamed cake? .
Steaming and chastity are similar in pronunciation. During the reign of Emperor Renzong in the Song Dynasty, in order to avoid the anonymity of Emperor Renzong Zhao Zhen, Steamed cake? Be renamed? Cooking cake? .
In Ci Yuan, the steamed cake is explained authoritatively and clearly, that is, steamed bread, also called cage cake. ?
Unexpectedly, what Wu Dalang sells? Cooking cake? It turned out to be the white-flour steamed bread in the modern population. Cooking cake is not a sesame seed cake, nor a scone. It is essentially different from sesame seed cake and scone in making technology and taste. Steamed bread needs to be fermented with flour, and then steamed in a steamer. It is big, with white skin and no stuffing, and now it has become the staple food of northerners.
