I made a dish myself, and asked my entourage to stew the unfinished dish in a pot. All foreigners thought it was delicious, and I also created a famous dish named Li Hongzhang's hodgepodge.

When Cixi ruled the Qing Dynasty, she basically relied on Li Hongzhang to manage the foreign affairs of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, Li Hongzhang often needed to visit abroad. When he came to the United States, he was warmly welcomed by the Americans. It was rare for the American local people to see such a big official of the Qing Dynasty. Li Hongzhang thought at that time, since the Americans were so hospitable, let the Americans taste China food and let them see China cuisine.

But what Li Hongzhang didn't expect was that there were so many people coming to dinner. It can be said that it was not enough to eat and eat delicious food. What should we do with so many people? So Li Hongzhang ordered his entourage to stew all the leftovers together. One end was fragrant and foreigners were full of praise. Li Hongzhang secretly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead to avoid embarrassment perfectly.

This dish became a famous dish later. Because it was invented by Li Hongzhang, it was named Li Hongzhang's hodgepodge. This dish is very popular in Chinatown in the United States. With this dish, the catering industry in Chinatown is becoming more and more developed, and many people come for Li Hongzhang's name. In fact, there is no uniform practice for Li Hongzao hodgepodge in restaurants. To put it bluntly, it is stew.

An important official of the Tang Dynasty was not only a small expert in diplomacy, but also a gourmet. I just don't know whether Empress Dowager Cixi had eaten this famous dish. It is estimated that no one dared to let the Empress Dowager Cixi eat it. After all, the Empress Dowager Cixi simply despised this kind of stew.
