It is said that Zhuge Liang's favorite dish in Langya County is grilled fish. This kind of grilled fish is different from ordinary grilled fish and has a unique flavor. Later, Zhuge Liang followed Liu Bei and took the chef who cooked grilled fish with him. Liu and his three brothers also praised the grilled fish cooked by the chef. Because grilled fish is Zhuge Liang's favorite, it has been called "Zhuge grilled fish" since it spread to the present.
It is said that he has close ties with Zhuge Liang, who ordered Jiang Wei's army to be stationed in Sichuan. Because of the Long March, it became a problem for soldiers to eat. So Zhuge Liang invented this kind of food with fast cooking speed and convenient carrying. It not only has a strong satiety, but also provides enough energy. With the arrival of soldiers, Guo Kui spread all over Sichuan, even to Hunan, Hubei and Shandong.
Kohlrabi is also known as Kongmingcai and Zhuge Cai. According to legend, Zhuge Liang likes to dig a kind of wild vegetable called "rattan stem" and make it into a dish for dinner. Once I visited a friend's house, Zhuge Liang made a plate of cold rattan stalks before leaving, and returned home a few days later, fearing that the food would go bad. Unexpectedly, after tasting the big fairy, the stem of the cold vine is not bad, but crisp and delicious, so the salted kohlrabi was invented.
