Su Shi is a famous scholar and poet in history, but also a famous gourmet in history. The most famous is Dongpo meat. But in addition to Dongpo meat, there are Dongpo fish, Dongpo elbow, Dongpo tofu, Dongpo cake, etc., which are all things created by future generations inspired by this food, or things created by Su Dongpo himself.

Well, first of all, let's introduce the most classic Dongpo meat, also called rolling meat. When Su Dongpo was demoted to Huangzhou, he felt that the food there was not to his taste and began to create his own food.

This practice is not simple. First, you have to cut the pork belly into pieces, then tie it up, put the onion and ginger in a small pot, spread the pork belly on it, then add sugar and soy sauce, spread the onion knot on it, and cover the pot. Bring it to a boil, then steam it in a steamer for 30 minutes. This is the general practice of Dongpo meat, but different regions will have different practices.

Su Dongpo likes eating meat, which is good, but he also pays great attention to the health and balance of diet. So he created Dongpo tofu and Dongpo cake. It is not difficult to make Dongpo tofu. Cut tofu into long strips with a knife, sprinkle some salt and flour, remove from the oil pan and drain for later use.

Then add new oil, wait for the oil temperature to mature, and add onion and ginger cooking wine. , and then add tofu. Add one tablespoon less water, bring to a boil, and serve until the soup thickens. The practice of Dongpo cake is more complicated, so I won't go into details. After being demoted, such scholars and poets became foodies. Indeed, eating is the foundation of people's livelihood.
