Passing by an ordinary street, eating ordinary fireworks? For foodies themselves, food can heal a person. As the saying goes, "Food is the first thing for people". Whether it is ancient or modern, people's pursuit of food is not only the color, fragrance, but also the food.

You also need to have a nice name. The ancients already paid great attention to the names of food, especially palace delicacies. The names sound very noble. As for why food should be given elegant names, does everyone know the reason?

1. Bai Niao Chao Feng You should know that the name "Hundred Birds Chao Feng" is loud enough. It sounds like it comes from a good family. Yes, it was made by the royal chef of the palace.

Just why give such a name?

First of all, this dish originated during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. In order to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother, the palace brought a hundred cages. These cages contained various birds and released them in front of the Queen Mother, and it appeared.

The scene of "a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix", the imperial chefs made this dish of "a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix" in order to seek good luck.

In fact, chicken is used as the main raw material. There are several ways to make it, but the taste is unknown. You can try it if you have time.

2. Stir-fried Phoenix Tongue Chinese cuisine is extensive and profound, especially in the cooking methods.

Everyone is familiar with stir-fried, deep-fried, boiled, pickled, steamed, etc. Among them, the focus of the editor is "stir-fried". This is the most common cooking method, but the ingredients for this "stir-fried phoenix tongue" are not the same.

Ordinary, you should know that the amount of chicken tongue is extremely rare. In ancient times, only royal nobles could eat it. The stir-fried chicken tongue that you see on the market today are not authentic because the ingredient used is pigeon tongue.

This is also the origin of the name of this dish. It is rare that it can no longer be eaten.

3. Buddha Jumps Over the Wall The last dish I want to introduce is "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall", which originated from southern cuisine and was relatively popular in the Qing Dynasty. During this period, it was improved by many chefs and became more suitable for the palace's food requirements. It was also fortunate to become the emperor's favorite.

One of the delicacies.

As for why it is called "Buddha Jumps over the Wall", it must be the poem "The altar opens and the fragrance of meat floats around, the Buddha hears abandoning Zen and jumps over the wall". From the literal meaning, it tastes great. You can try this dish.
