The nickname of ancient moon cakes

Cakes were originally used to worship the moon god, so moon cakes are also called "palace cakes" and "moon groups".

Mooncakes began with ancient pasta. More than 3000 years ago, there were simple round cakes with dough and sugar sauce in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. "As early as the Han Dynasty, sesame seeds and walnuts existed. Came to the Central Plains from the Western Regions. At that time, the round cakes made from these raw materials were called Hu cakes. "

Zhao Shu said: "The official record of mooncakes is the Miscellaneous Notes of Ten Thousand Folk Customs in the Ming Dynasty. The book says, "The furniture of ordinary people is made of moon cakes, which are called moon cakes in different sizes. According to Zhao Shu, there is also a legend that Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei enjoyed the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. When eating Hu cakes, Tang Xuanzong thought Hu cakes were not delicious. Yang Guifei just looked up at the bright moon and blurted out "moon cakes".

So the name "moon cake" spread. As a social gift, moon cakes can convey emotions. In ancient times, there were "repay kindness" and "dim sum, dim sum", which were just thoughts, not luxuries, but family ties.

Zhao Shu said that people from all over the world have different tastes for eating moon cakes. Parents of Longyan people in Fujian will dig out round cakes with a diameter of two or three inches for their elders to eat, which means that they can't tell the secret to their younger generation. This custom originated from the legend that moon cakes contain the message that Zhu Yuanzhang killed the enemy against Yuan.
