things.

When diners who are familiar with Henan cuisine order carp in restaurants, they always ask for "two servings", that is, half of the carp is deep-fried and the other half is stir-fried with sweet and sour.

When the sweet and sour braised half is finished, the waiter will take away the remaining fish bones to make soup, and then bring a plate of thin noodles as thin as hair, baked to a golden brown, and pour the hot fish bone soup over it.

The imperial chef cut the radish into shreds, mixed it with powder, steamed it, and served it with delicious soup. After eating it, Wu Zetian felt that it was extremely delicious and had the flavor of bird's nest, so she named it "Yancai", which has been passed down to this day.
