It is a traditional dish of kung pao chicken and Guizhou cuisine, which is fried with diced chicken, dried peppers and peanuts. Because its entrance is fresh and spicy, the freshness of chicken and the crispness of peanuts are widely welcomed by the public. Especially in western countries such as Britain and the United States, kung pao chicken is "flooded", which is synonymous with Chinese food, and the situation is similar to spaghetti in Italian food. Kungbao Chicken introduces the origin of kung pao chicken About the origin of kung pao chicken, it is generally believed that it has something to do with Ding Baozhen. The most credible statement is that Ding Baozhen is from Niuchang Town, zhijin county, Guizhou Province. He accidentally fell into the water when he was a child, and was rescued by a family by the bridge. Later, when he was an official, he remembered the incident and went to thank him. The family served this dish. After eating it, he thought it was delicious and promoted it. This is the true origin of this dish (Zhijin County Records has relevant records). There are three other legends: First, Ding Baozhen was originally from Guizhou, and was a scholar in Xianfeng period of Qing Dynasty. He was once the governor of Shandong and then the governor of Sichuan. He always likes to eat Chili, pork and chicken stir-fried dishes. It is said that when he was in Shandong, he ordered his chef to make "Fried Chicken with Sauce" and other dishes, which was very appetizing, but it was not famous at that time. After being transferred to the governor of Sichuan, he asked the chef to stir-fry diced chicken with peanuts, dried peppers and tender chicken every time he met a banquet guest. The meat was tender and delicious, and it was very popular with the guests. Later, he was named "Prince Shaobao" by the imperial court because of his meritorious service in guarding the border and defending the enemy, and was called "Ding Gongbao". The fried diced chicken cooked by his chef was also called "kung pao chicken". Two said: Ding Baozhen came to Sichuan to build water conservancy projects, and the people felt his virtue, and presented his favorite fried diced chicken, named "kung pao chicken". When Ding Baozhen was in Sichuan, he often visited incognito. Once I ate in a small restaurant, I got chili pepper diced chicken fried with peanuts, which was called imitation by the chef, who named it "kung pao chicken". Kung Pao Chicken and kung pao chicken Kung Pao Chicken were originally not called Kung Pao Chicken, but should be from kung pao chicken. Nowadays, "kung pao chicken" is a common dish in Chinese restaurants of all sizes. As for some menus that say "Kung Pao Chicken", some people think that the cooking method is "stir-fried", but this is actually a misunderstanding, and the origin of "kung pao chicken" is not clear. Speaking of "kung pao chicken", of course, we can't help but mention its inventor-Ding Baozhen. According to the Draft of Qing History, Ding Baozhen, born in Pingyuan, Guizhou Province, was a scholar in Xianfeng for three years, and served as the governor of Sichuan in Guangxu for two years. It is said that Ding Baozhen has a good knowledge of cooking, and likes to eat chicken and peanuts, especially spicy food. When he was governor of Sichuan, he created a delicious dish which was made of diced chicken, red pepper and peanuts. This delicious dish was originally just Ding Jia's "private kitchen", but later it spread more and more widely and was well known. But not many people know why it was named "Gong Bao". The so-called "Gong Bao" is actually the honorary title of Ding Baozhen. According to the explanation in China Dictionary of Official in Past Dynasties, officials at all levels in Ming and Qing Dynasties had "virtual titles". The highest virtual titles are "Tai Fu, Shao Shi, Tai Fu, Shao Fu, Taibao, Shao Bao, Prince Tai Fu, Prince Shao Shi, Prince Tai Fu, Prince Shao Fu, Prince Tai Bao and Prince Shao Bao". The above titles are all empty titles addressed to important officials in the DPRK, and they have no actual power. Some of them are posthumously presented, and they are generally called "palace titles". After Xianfeng, these virtual titles no longer used "so-and-so teacher" but "so-and-so guarantee", so these top virtual titles have another nickname-"Gong Bao". Ding Baozhen ruled Shu for ten years, and made many achievements as an official. He died in the 11th year of Guangxu. In recognition of his achievements, the Qing court posthumously presented the "Prince Taibao". As mentioned above, "Tai Zi Tai Bao" is one of the "Gong Bao", so the dish he invented was named "kung pao chicken", which is also a commemoration of this Ding adult. Times have changed. Many people don't know what "Gong Bao" is, so they take it for granted that "kung pao chicken" is written as "Kung Pao Chicken". Although it is a word difference, it has changed the original intention of commemorating Ding Baozhen.
