I don't know exactly how to do it, but I have always thought that husband and wife lung slices are made of pig lungs, and this thought has been going on for 30 years. I remember watching a TV series in Bobby Au—Yeung (do you know what it's called) that is about cooking, and there are husband and wife lung slices in it. Then I thought it was made of pig lungs, until I went to a restaurant, and someone ordered a couple's lung slices, but I couldn't find the pig lungs for a long time. At that time, it was a blind circle that had been overthrown for a long time. Do you have the same as me!

Husband and wife lung slices were a dish sold by a couple in the last century, and their real name came from this.

Regular lung slices are mixed with beef offal to bring out spicy taste, because beef lungs are the cheapest part in beef offal, and many people don't like to eat them. They were available in the last century, but now they have entered the hotel menu. If you still use lungs to cook, it is not graded, which is not good for sales, so there is no lung slices now, but the name has not changed.

First of all, it should be explained that the couple's lung slices had lung slices at first, but this lung slice was not pig lungs, but cow lungs. Because the color is black and red, it is not good-looking, and its taste is not as good as beef, beef tendon, tripe, beef tongue, etc., so it is abandoned by the chef!

Husband and wife lung slices, this snack probably appeared on the streets of Chengdu in the 1920s. Mr. Li Jieren, a writer of the Republic of China, described this in detail: "Boiled with fragrant brine, and mixed with cooked oil and spicy sauce to make it red. Each piece of bovine skull skin is half the size of a palm, as thin as a barefoot lamp, and the translucent colloid is also very similar. "

Initially, it was a snack specially named by the Hui people in Chengdu Royal Dam, which was called "Pot-Pot Meat", also called "Looking at both ends". After that, it was mixed with beef offal in the skull skin of cattle, that is, there was a mistake in lung slices.

Why is it called "pots of meat"? It's because it's packed in an earthen bowl and bamboo chopsticks are inserted around the basin, which is spicy and fragrant.

What about "looking at both ends" At first, pots and pans of meat existed among the poor people at the lower level, and then the upper class began to patronize them. However, they are afraid to eat this delicious food and be discovered by acquaintances, so they look forward and backward and look left and right before they dare to eat it with the poor, hence the name.

At that time, Guo Chaohua and his wife were the most famous people who made "lung slices". Because they were made together by husband and wife and had a good reputation, they were called "husband and wife lung slices". This lively and interesting name has since replaced "pot of meat" and "looking at both ends" and spread all over the country.

It is said that Guo Chaohua was addicted to gambling before liberation, making lung slices to earn money, while gambling completely, so he basically had no savings, and he failed to become a landlord who settled down and bought a house. After liberation, he escaped. When Mr. Che Fu said this, I felt quite interesting.
