Speaking of the origin of oil gluten, it was first fried by a nun. In the past, to go to Huishan, you had to cross Wuli Street. There is a Dade Bridge at the top of Wuli Street, and there is a nun by the bridge. This Antang is close to Huishan and the environment is quiet. Bodhisattva's birthday is celebrated at four o'clock. Many old ladies in Chengxiang, Wuxi, come here to read Buddha and sit still at night. Sometimes they study in seven buddha, and they live in buddhist nun for six or seven days. There is a cook in buddhist nun who is famous for his vegetarian dishes. As the saying goes, "bean curd leaves are full of wonders", and her cooking is unusual, famous and delicious. Teacher Shi always uses raw bran as the main ingredient when cooking vegetarian dishes, braising in soy sauce, frying silk and cooking soup, which really satisfies the old lady who reads Buddha. When meeting Mrs. Fu and the young lady, the teacher used raw bran to match the first-class winter bamboo shoots and mushrooms. Authentic dishes attracted endless praise in vegetarian restaurants. There are many people who often come to the temple to read Buddhism, and many lay people are famous for being vegetarian. No wonder chefs are always tired of bran and soaking in small pots.

Once upon a time, dozens of old rural women who had agreed to come to Laitang to read Buddha and sit at night didn't come that day. The chef has prepared several tables of raw wheat bran for vegetarian food this morning, so why not let her worry? Raw chaff will spoil overnight, but it can't be eaten all night. First, the cook put some salt in the bran jar, but he was still worried that something would go wrong with the jar. She thought about it and tried to open the frying pan to fry raw bran to avoid deterioration. Vegetarian food could still be used in the Ming Dynasty. There is too much oil in the oil pan. When the oil was boiling, the teacher was afraid that the raw bran would not be fried thoroughly, so he cut the raw bran into small pieces, threw one hand into the oil pan and turned the shovel over several times. Hey, what a surprise! I saw the raw bran in the pot swell into golden transparent hollow balls, and they flew up and down in boiling oil. The teacher picked up his finger with a shovel and poked it crunchily. His nose smelled delicious and his mouth tasted fresh. She was so happy that she hurriedly called all the teachers to have a look, and everyone praised her. She also named the fried hollow bran jiaozi "oil gluten". The chef has a new abacus in his heart: there is a new leader in Anli Vegetarian Restaurant!

Needless to say, the chef is a superb cook. Since then, the nun Lisu Zhai has cooked gluten, brewed gluten bamboo shoots, gluten soup, authentic vegetarian dishes and authentic delicacies. I'm afraid that there will be fewer vegetarian tables every day, so I'm not worried that guests will eat too much. After the news came out, Antang and temples around the country began to learn from it and added oil gluten to vegetarian food. Soon, the oil gluten shop opened in Wuxi. Oil gluten has entered thousands of households, and meat gluten, gluten fried shredded pork and vegetable gluten have become daily meals. As for those restaurants and restaurants, the chefs even crossed the ocean with the Eight Immortals, each showing his magical powers and cooking many famous traditional dishes in Wuxi.
