Wonton, also known as flat food, is a characteristic traditional snack in Guangdong and Guangxi regions and belongs to Cantonese cuisine.
Unlike most "wontons" in southern areas, they were initially classified as pancakes.
The reason why it is called wonton is because the pronunciation of wonton in Cantonese is similar to wonton.
Historical allusions It is said that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, King Fu Chai of Wu defeated the Kingdom of Yue and captured King Gou Jian of Yue alive. He obtained many gold and silver treasures, especially after acquiring the peerless beauty Xi Shi.
When the Winter Solstice came this year, the King of Wu accepted the worship of hundreds of officials as usual, and there was singing and dancing inside and outside the palace.
Unexpectedly, during the banquet, he was tired of eating delicacies from mountains and seas, and he felt unhappy and refused to eat.
Xi Shi saw all this, and she took the opportunity to run into the imperial kitchen, kneading the dough and rolling out the dough, hoping to make a new type of snack to express her feelings.
After turning the leather in her hands a few times, she finally made a dustpan-style snack.
Put it into boiling water for a moment, and the snacks will float to the surface one by one.
She put it into a bowl, added fresh soup, sprinkled onions, garlic, pepper, dripped with sesame oil, and presented it to King Wu.
When King Wu tasted it, it was extremely delicious. He ate a big bowl in one go and asked repeatedly: "What kind of snack is this?"
When asked, she responded casually: "wontons." From then on, this kind of snack became popular among the people under the name of "wontons".
Not only do people in Wuyue love to eat wontons on weekdays, but in order to commemorate Xi Shi’s wisdom and creation, they also set it as a special delicacy during the Winter Solstice Festival.
