1. Dongpo elbow
First, it is said that Su Dongpo has been to Yongxiu, Jiangxi, and cured the disease of a local farmer's child. As a token of gratitude, the farmer specially kept him for dinner. Su Dongpo was intoxicated by the beautiful countryside, and he couldn't help reciting a poem: "Grass pearls smell sweet in the heart". The farmer who was cooking in the kitchen heard this, thinking that this was Su Dongpo teaching him how to go to cook the meat-"the whole cooking with grass is fragrant", so he quickly put the pork and the straw tied with meat into the pot to cook, but the meat cooked in this way really has a unique fragrance! ?
Second, it is said that in the forties of last century, four students from the Chinese Department of Sichuan University found two words from Ban Gu of the Han Dynasty in ancient poems: "Give your life to yourself, and the taste is bad", so these four scholars opened a "taste-bad" restaurant in Chengdu.
At that time, they collected the word "Wei Zhi" from Su Dongpo's ink handed down from generation to generation, and made a shop move with the plaque at this moment. In addition to telling the world that these three words were written by Su Dongpo himself, they repeatedly stressed that the recipe of "Dongpo elbow" sold in the shop was created by Su Dongpo himself and handed down in secret. In this way, the reputation of Dongpo elbow naturally spread like wildfire and spread all over the country, and the business of "Wei Zhi" was of course very prosperous. ?
Legends are legends after all. Don't be too concerned if you listen to them. Because of the different materials, the local flavor is also different. At present, the method of making Dongpo elbow has its own characteristics all over the country, but it seems that Dongpo elbow originated in Sichuan. There are usually three ways to do the elbow in Dongpo, Sichuan. ?
The first method is to select a pig's forearms (elbows) of about 2,111g, put them into a soup pot, cook them thoroughly, take them out and remove the bones, then put them into the original soup, add snow beans, scallion, Shaoxing wine, etc., and simmer for about three hours with slow fire. When eating, add salt, and spoon the soup beans into a bowl and dip them in soy sauce. ?
The second method is to cook the elbow until it is half cooked, take it out and drain it. When the lard is 91% hot, put it in the elbow. When the pig's elbow skin is fried to golden brown, take it out and cut one side of the meat into five square pieces, but don't cut the skin. Boil fried eggs, Chinese cabbage and bamboo shoots with soy sauce, onion, ginger, aniseed and broth, add salt and monosodium glutamate, and finally thicken them and pour them on the elbow. ?
the third way is to do it in Meishan, Sichuan, Dongpo's hometown. First, the elbow is cooked in a pot until it is medium-cooked, the original soup is decanted (this is the first degreasing), and then steamed in a cage, which is the second degreasing. Stir-fry the first-class douban hot sauce in a wok with hot oil for a few times, then add garlic, ginger, pepper, onion, sugar, vinegar, salt, coriander and broth, and pour it on the elbow in the pan after stirring evenly. 2.

There are two different versions of the origin of Dongpo elbow:
First, it is said that Su Dongpo has been to Yongxiu, Jiangxi, and cured the disease of a local farmer's child. As a token of gratitude, the farmer specially kept him for dinner. Su Dongpo was intoxicated by the beautiful countryside, and he couldn't help reciting a poem: "Grass pearls smell sweet in the heart". The farmer who was cooking in the kitchen heard this, thinking that this was Su Dongpo teaching him how to go to cook the meat-"the whole cooking with grass is fragrant", so he quickly put the pork and the straw tied with meat into the pot to cook, but the meat cooked in this way really has a unique fragrance!
Second, Dongpo elbow is a traditional famous dish made by Mrs. Su Dongpo and named after Su Dongpo's great love. According to legend, once Su Dongpo's wife, Wang Fu, stewed her elbow at home because of a moment's negligence. She quickly added various ingredients and cooked it carefully to cover up the burnt taste. Unexpectedly, the yellowish elbow tastes unexpectedly good, and Su Dongpo was suddenly overjoyed. Su Dongpo not only cooked it repeatedly by himself, but also left a record, and also vigorously promoted it to relatives and friends, so the "Dongpo elbow" was handed down from generation to generation. The second kind is generally circulated.
Characteristics of Dongpo elbow:
It has the characteristics of fat but not greasy, and it is not rotten. It has excellent color, fragrance, taste and shape. Some people call it "beauty food" and foreign guests praise it as a world famous dish.

The Dongpo elbow in Meishan is very particular about the seasoning, which is composed of 17 kinds of raw materials.

Dongpo elbow is a famous Sichuan dish. It is said that Su Dongpo likes to eat pork elbow and made it himself, hence the name.
In fact, Lai originated from the "Weizhi" restaurant in Chengdu in the 1941s, and has since become the famous Lai of this restaurant. At that time, the restaurant was founded by five people, four of whom were graduates of the Chinese Department of Sichuan University, among whom Long Daosan and Li Jingzhi were from Chengdu, and the other three were surnamed Wu, all from Wenjiang.
When college students open restaurants, shop signs and dish names all want to win by surprise. They found two words of Ban Gu in the Han Dynasty from ancient poems, "Give your life to yourself, and the taste is bad", and decided to take "the taste is bad" as the name of the store.
They integrated the word "Wei Zhi" from Su Dongpo's ink handed down from ancient times and made it into a signboard. From the thirteen-character formula of "slow fire, lack of water, it will be beautiful when the fire is full" in Su Dongpo's "Stewed Meat Song", a method of burning pork elbow has evolved, which is named "Dongpo elbow".
They also created a public opinion that Su Dongpo personally wrote the signboard of "Wei Zhi" and Su Dongpo personally created and handed down the "Dongpo Elbow". Therefore, the famous shop "Wei Zhi" and the famous dish "Dongpo Elbow" spread like wildfire.
Since its operation, it has been flourishing for a long time and spread to the whole country, and a variety of "Dongpo elbow" methods have appeared. 6. Please write down the source of several ancient essays describing food. Thank you.
