The origin of pressure cooker cake.

There are many theories about the origin of moving with pressure cooker cakes, among which the prototype of pressure cooker cakes is "climbing up step by step". The ancients moved to celebrate their new house, so relatives and friends would bring gifts to congratulate their new house, while the host needed to hold a banquet. In ancient times, people often used the word "climbing higher and higher step by step" to mean rising higher and higher, hoping that after moving to a new house, life could be improved even higher. Pressed pot cake, a kind of thick and big cake, means that life is thick and that life after moving can be promoted step by step.

Another way of saying it is that in the northeast, people need to hold a "check-in" ceremony after moving into a new house, that is, make a fire to cook and eat a meal to celebrate the move. In this ceremony, a new cauldron needs to be used, and this cauldron needs to be pressed with a special cake, which is called a pot-pressing cake. The thick and large shape of the pressed pot cake symbolizes the massiness and richness of the day. Pressing the pot means stability and stability, and it also represents expectations and blessings for a better life.

No matter which statement is more accurate, pressure pot stickers have become a traditional food for moving, and people's good expectations and blessings for a new life are pinned.
