What does a bun mean?

Pasta, usually steamed bread: steamed bread, steamed bread.

Steamed bread, called steamed bread in ancient times, or steamed buns, is the real name of steamed buns, one of the traditional pasta in China, and it is a kind of food steamed with fermented flour. Steamed bread with wheat flour as the main raw material is one of the daily staple foods of China people.

Steamed bread originated from the head sacrifice in barbaric times and was invented by Zhuge Liang when he surrendered Meng Huo. It's shaped like a head, and then gradually turned into poultry stuffing with the development of history. However, the history of China people eating steamed bread can be traced back at least to the Warring States period, when it was called "steamed cake". During the Three Kingdoms period, steamed bread had its own official name, called "steamed bread". In the manuscript revised seven times, Lang Ying of Amin Dynasty wrote: "The real name of steamed bread is steamed bread, which is a sacrifice to the gods with human heads. Zhuge Zhi levied Meng Huo, and ordered bread and meat as the head sacrifice, which was called "steamed bread", and now it is also steamed bread. "

The word "steamed bread" originally only refers to steamed bread with stuffing. Now northerners call it "steamed bread". The word "steamed bread" began in the Song Dynasty, and the names of "steamed bread" and "steamed bread" gradually differentiated in the Qing Dynasty. In Wuyu District and other places, the old name is still retained, and those with stuffing are called "steamed bread", such as "raw fried steamed bread" and "crab powder steamed bread".
