In the old Kunming custom, ordinary people always liked to set up a stove at home, put Baba on an iron sieve and eat it while baking, which was really unique. Speaking of the origin of this custom, there is another story.
One morning, the coarse chaff treasure was carrying a handful of mountains to sell in Kunming. Just entering the East Gate, I saw many people standing at the gate of the city, one by one angry and shouting and cursing. Some dolls lie in their mother's arms and cry with their mouths open. Coarse chaff treasure stood by and listened for a while before he understood the whole story. It turned out that the second hall of the magistrate's yamen suddenly caught fire for some reason last night, and the magistrate flew into a rage, believing that it was a bold and unruly person who deliberately made trouble. He immediately ordered a notice to be posted at the six gates of Kunming. From today on, all the people are not allowed to cook at home. The ban is valid for three months, and offenders will be severely punished and will not be tolerated.
Coarse chaff treasure beckoned to the villagers, so charged, everyone was happy. After returning, everyone moved out of the stove from home and baked Baba on it, which was delicious.
The magistrate knew, and hurried out to check. He grabbed an old man and blew his beard and stared. Coarse chaff treasure stepped forward and made a face at the magistrate. "Magistrate's adult, the notice forbids cooking at home, but it doesn't prohibit baking Baba at home!" Magistrate chagrined, why didn't I expect coarse chaff treasure to come to this skill in advance!
The Samei people called Baba a bait block, and the bait block was handed down like this. People in Kunming still love to eat bait blocks. Just go to the barbecue stalls on the street and have a look.
