Before the Nankang River was protected, it was related to "Dai Zhuangyuan" in Nan 'an Prefecture. According to legend, during the Qianlong period, Dai Quheng, the number one scholar, gave a big banquet to thank his neighbors. Because of paying attention to the ostentation and extravagance of the "champion" seats, the chefs wrapped the cooked pork in the shape of a "champion hat" with local lotus leaves, and steamed it into a dish with light yellow color, pure fragrance, fat but not oily, sweet but not greasy.
What's more, after the Champion's Banquet, Dai Champion, considering the people in his family who can't attend the banquet (mainly women, the elderly, the disabled and young people), invited the people who attended the banquet to "fold up" the unfinished "purse", "head sacrifice" (referring to chicken and duck pieces) and "fried fish" with lotus leaves at the banquet for their families to taste. This has formed the customs handed down from generation to generation.
The production of "poached eggs" pays attention to color, fragrance and shape. The practices in different places are similar. Its main ingredient is diced pork, its ingredient is fried rice flour, and then it is seasoned with sugar, salt, soy sauce, pepper, star anise, spiced powder and fresh soup.
