It is indeed a kind of food created by Su Dongpo.

Su Dongpo can be said to be the most grounded poet and writer. In ancient times, it was said that men should stay away from places like kitchens, but he liked cooking very much, and his own braised pork was very delicious.

as for why he created this unfortunate thing, it was actually because he offended the ruler and was demoted to a local official, so he used his spare time to cook braised pork with his friends, and wrote a poem saying that he would release less water with a small fire and cook it slowly enough, so that the meat would be very delicious. Really let everyone know that this dish should start with a good thing he did.

He went to Hangzhou after a period of time. At that time, the water surface of the West Lake was blocked because of weeds, which made it impossible for ships to sail. So he asked everyone to remove weeds and dredge all kinds of water green, and built a long embankment conducive to development.

This didn't work. It made the environment better and the traffic more developed, so everyone was very grateful. He gave her his favorite pork, but he couldn't finish it, so he cooked all the pork and gave it to everyone. By mistake, the delicious Dongpo meat was made.

However, when cooking, the family didn't listen to him clearly, thinking that they should put the wine in and cook together, so a different kind of braised pork appeared, which is what we now call Dongpo pork. Nine pieces of meat were added to make the meat more crisp and rotten, and there was no smell of meat.

People who eat this kind of meat think it is very delicious, so they call it Dongpo meat directly, and many people also ask him for advice on cooking methods.

After it was widely circulated, many people studied and recorded it, so this dish has been circulated for thousands of years. Although it is said that this dish is made because of some mistakes, in the final analysis, it is also because Su Dongpo has done good things. Everyone will thank him for sending meat, and he is also a good man. In order to give back to those who really treat him, such delicious food will appear.
