It's a kind of oil cake made of lard and flour, which is very fragrant. Besides, sesame, walnut kernel and rock sugar are added according to different tastes of different people, so people can't stop eating it once. Rescue is actually a famous pastry in Shouxian County, Anhui Province. Its shape is oblate, like a spiral vortex, golden in color, layered, crisp and delicious. Although it is heavy oil, it tastes fresh, not greasy at all, and it is very delicious.

The reason why it is called "Rescue" is actually that it was named by Zhao Kuangyin, Song Taizu. At that time, Chai Rong, Zhou Shizong, was still alive, and Zhao Kuangyin was one of his leading men. Chai Rong went to attack Huainan and ordered Zhao Kuangyin to attack Nantang. Although Nantang was not good at that time, it was not easy to fight, especially because of the fierce resistance of Nantang soldiers, so it was impossible to attack for a long time. Zhao Kuangyin didn't have enough grain and grass reserves at that time, so he played Shouchun for several months, but he fell ill in a hurry.

With Zhao Kuangyin's illness, water and rice began to fall behind. Although he forced himself to eat, no matter what he ate, he would be spit out immediately. In the long run, Zhao Kuangyin felt that God was killing him, so he lay in bed and waited for death. In this way, his subordinates can be anxious, and his subordinates can't think of a way to break their heads. At this time, suddenly a local cook stood up and said he could give it a try.

He thinks that Zhao Kuangyin is suffering from anorexia. He can make a snack, which can refresh his appetite and relieve fatigue. Just open your stomach, eat something, and then slowly recuperate. These men have no other choice but to let him try. After the cook cooked the food, he took it to Zhao Kuangyin. Zhao Kuangyin smelled the aroma, picked up a piece and ate it. When he found that he didn't dislike it, he ate several pieces in a row. Miraculously, from then on, he was able to eat something, and his body was slowly adjusted.

Later, when Zhou Shizong died, Zhao Kuangyin became emperor with a yellow robe, and he often remembered the oil cakes he had eaten. So he sent someone to find the cook and asked him to cook it for himself again. Zhao Kuangyin, who ate the cake again, was deeply touched. When he knew that the food had no name, he gave it a name of rescue to commemorate his life saved by the cake.
