1, Tianjin
Pancake fruit is a snack of Tianjin people. It is composed of mung bean pancakes, eggs, fried dough sticks or crispy "bread crumbs", with flour paste, chopped green onion, fermented bean curd and Chili sauce (optional) as seasonings, which tastes salty and delicious. At present, the raw materials of pancake crumbs are not only limited to pancakes made of mung bean noodles, but also various choices such as soybeans and black bean noodles.
However, Tianjin people still adhere to the traditional way of eating. The ingredients used in authentic pancake fruit are only seasonings such as mung bean powder, fried dough sticks and chopped green onion.

According to legend, before the stir-fry was over, there was an old Dao in Shandong who was good at eighteen martial arts. He found two strong men beating an old man with knives, killed them and started to run away. Because of hunger, he made a pancake Qin stew with powder, thinking it would be better if there was sauce. Formerly known as "Lao Wei Wrapped Cake", its name is pronounced "Pancake Fruit", which is the predecessor of Pancake Fruit.
