A careful study of the most expensive dishes in China belongs to the Buddha's Leaping Wall of Fujian cuisine. The traditional Buddha jumping wall has a wide selection of materials and is a rare delicacy. It takes a long time, and some ingredients take more than ten hours or even longer from material selection to production completion; The freshness of taste and the richness of alcohol are unmatched by other cuisines; Of course, according to the traditional Buddha jumping wall, the price is definitely the most expensive. This masterpiece of Fujian cuisine is the representative and soul of Fujian cuisine.

Buddha jumps over the wall, also known as full altar incense and longevity; According to legend, it was developed by Zheng Chunfa, the owner of Juchunyuan Restaurant in Fuzhou in Qing Dynasty. During the Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty, an official of Fuzhou Official Money Bureau invited Zhou Lian, an envoy of Fujian, as a guest. His wife personally cooked more than 20 kinds of raw materials such as chicken, duck, mutton, pork belly, pigeon eggs and seafood in Shaoxing jar. Zhou Lian was full of praise after tasting it and asked the name of the dish. The host said that this dish implied "good luck and long life", so it was called "Fushou Spring". Later, Zhou Lian's official chef Zheng Chun improved the cooking method of this dish, adding more precious ingredients, and the taste was better than the first course. When Zheng Chunfa opened the "Juchunyuan" restaurant, he focused on Fushouquan, which caused a sensation in Rongcheng. When some literati tasted this dish, when they went to Xiqitan, the smell of meat was overflowing. One of the scholars was ecstatic and poetic, and immediately recited: "The altar is full of meat, and the Buddha heard that he abandoned Zen and jumped over the wall." In Fuzhou dialect, the pronunciation of "Fushouquan" and "Buddha jumping over the wall" is similar. Since then, the more poetic "Buddha jumping over the wall" has become the proper noun of this dish.

The process of making this delicious food is very complicated. The raw materials needed for the Buddha jumping wall are abalone, sea cucumber, fish lips, shark's fin, fish belly, pork belly tip, yak skin glue, Pleurotus eryngii, deer tendon, turtle skirt, sheep elbow, mushrooms, cuttlefish, scallop, quail egg, sole fish, duck gizzard, domestic old hen chicken breast, domestic yellow-billed duck breast, Jinhua ham and so on. Make these ingredients into a dish independently, then gather them together, put them in a Shaoxing wine jar, inject a proper amount of soup and Shaoxing wine, so that the soup, wine and vegetables can be fully integrated, and then seal the jar mouth with lotus leaves and stew for more than ten hours, so that this taste can truly achieve mellow characteristics.
