But if you fry with sugar, there will be no silk. People in the capital like it. "Drawn yam" is a traditional famous dish in Beijing, which has a history of at least one hundred years. Now, add some sweet-scented osmanthus salt water to the yam and sprinkle some cooked white sesame seeds. Eat it while it is hot. If you pull a yam, how far can the sugar silk go? Be sure to dip it in a bowl of cold boiled water before going in to avoid burning your mouth.

There is also an ancient legend about spinning yam. According to legend, one day, Shi Biao invited Wei Zhi to dinner to discuss how to capture Xingyang. Shi Biao wanted a quick victory, but Wei Zhi just didn't mention attacking Xingyang. Shi Biao was very worried, and there was nothing he could do. Just wondering, the chef served a plate of golden dishes, ate the rice with chopsticks, and then "ouch", a blood bubble had burned out on his lips. At this point, the chef sent another bowl of cold water. Wei Zhi picked up the yam, washed it with cold water, put it in his mouth, and told Shi Biao to taste it this way. Stone rice tastes sweet, crisp and delicious-this dish is "shredded Chinese yam".
After eating this dish, Shi Mi had an epiphany that "you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry". Then he calmed down and carefully planned the battle plan with Wei Zhi. As a result, Xingyang was captured in one fell swoop, and the guarding city coach Wang was captured alive.
