This kind of dim sum is unique in shape, flat and round, with a turbulent vortex in the middle, and multiple layers of flower cakes are stacked like gold wires, which are clear but not chaotic, and the color is milky and moist. The taste is crisp and delicious, heavy but not greasy, and it contains a variety of fruit flavors, which is deeply loved by the masses. Rescue not only tastes good, but also has a unique name, which adds to its charm.

Why is it called rescue? This has to start with its birth. More than a thousand years ago, China was in the period of Five Dynasties and Ten Countries. In the late Five Dynasties, the Zhou Dynasty became stronger and stronger under the rule of Chai Rong, a famous monarch, and had the potential to unify the whole country. At that time, the biggest obstacle to the unification of Zhou Dynasty was Nantang, the most powerful of the ten countries. In 956, Chai Rong sent general Zhao Kuangyin to capture Huainan in the Southern Tang Dynasty. When he captured Shouchun, a military town in Huainan, he was strongly resisted by the troops of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Liu Renshan, Shouchun's general, was an excellent general in the Southern Tang Dynasty. He was good at strategy. He led the South Tang army to defend well. The powerful Zhao Kuangyin Zhou Jun fought hard for more than nine months before winning Shouchun City. This protracted attack not only cost Zhou Jun many lives, but also made great sacrifices to the living. As a coach, Zhao Kuangyin is exhausted, exhausted and depressed, and doesn't want to eat. The chefs in Zhao Kuangyin have been following the coach for many years. When they see the master, they are very anxious. They tried their best to find tips on diet, but to no avail. Later, he made a round cake with reference to local snacks. Zhao Kuangyin saw this cake with a color like frozen fat and coiled gold thread, and his appetite was wide open, and he ate a lot at one breath. After Zhao Kuangyin regained his appetite, he soon got rid of fatigue. A few years later, he seized Chai's political power and became the first emperor of the Song Dynasty, but he still remembered the dim sum he ate in Shouchun that year and said that it saved his driver's journey, so he named it "Save".

1000 years, Great Rescue has made many improvements in raw materials, formula, production technology, etc., and its quality has been continuously improved, gradually becoming a national famous point.

[Fang La Fish]

"Fang La Fish" is one of the famous dishes in Huizhou. It is made by two different cooking methods. Fang La fish is made of fresh mandarin fish (mandarin fish) weighing about 1.5 kg, washed, cut off the head and tail, fried the middle part of the fish into golden yellow fish, added with tomato sauce, boiled in stock, stirred evenly, put it in the middle of the plate, cooked the head and tail on both ends of the plate, and placed twelve fried prawns on the edge of the plate. Fang La fish is characterized by its peculiar shape. Siniperca chuatsi, with its head held high and its tail cocked, has a tendency to leap in Ling Bo, while the dishes contain three flavors: salty head and tail, sweet middle section and fresh prawn, with unique flavor and ingenious preparation.

Fang La fish, also known as "the big fish will retreat", is named mainly according to its unique shape. However, if traced back to the source, it is also related to an old story. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Huizong was dissolute and shameless. Together with Cai Jing, Zhu Li, Wang Fu, Li Yan, Tong Guan and Liang Shicheng, he made the country in a mess. He sent Zhu Li to Jiangnan to look for rare treasures, famous flowers and ancient trees. Zhu Li and his minions used the power of the emperor to bully in Jiangnan. They tear down walls and houses and extort money, which makes people miserable. The beautiful scenery and rich products in Zhangzhou and Zhou Mu have also become the main areas for harassment and search by Zhu Li and others. People in Zhou She and Zhoumu hated the government and held an uprising under the leadership of poor farmer Fang La. After the Fang La Uprising broke out, the people in the south of the Yangtze River responded in succession, and the insurgents quickly captured Jinhua and Hangzhou, which was a huge event. Song Huizong heard the news of the Jiangnan Uprising, and quickly handed over the sixteen-state army ready to recover the deep and remote clouds to his minion Tong Guan, who led his army south to suppress the Fang La Uprising. Although the scale of Fang La Uprising was large, it still could not compete with hundreds of thousands of elite troops in Song Dynasty. Although Fang La and his troops defeated Song Jun many times, the captured places such as Hangzhou and Tianjin gradually fell, and finally retreated to the top of Yun Qi alone, and then came to Song Jun at the foot of the mountain. Mount Yun Qi is very dangerous, and the rebels can condescend and attack the enemy's attack. But there is not enough food and grass here, so it is difficult to live here for a long time. After several failed attacks on the mountain, Song Jun camped at the foot of the mountain, cut off the road to the mountain, and prepared to trap the rebels at the foot of the mountain. Fang La was very worried when he saw the enemy's deadly plan, so he had to walk around the mountain to find a chance to break through. One day, Fang La went to a big pond on the mountain and saw many fish and shrimps in it. He had an idea: he told some soldiers to catch all the fish and shrimp in the pond, and then concentrated his forces to confuse Song Jun. General Song Jun saw that there were so many fish and shrimp on the mountain, thinking that there must be enough food and grass on the mountain, and it was difficult to trap the rebels in Fang La for a while, and the storm could not attack them, so he had to clear the way.

The dish "Fang La Fish" has taken the fearless and heroic attack of the Fang La Uprising Army, and embodies the spirit of the people who dare to resist corrupt officials, confuse the monarch and rebuild an ideal society, so it is directly loved by the people. It is not only delicious, but also contains people's admiration for heroic spirit and wisdom.

[Hefei hemp cake]

"Hefei Sesame Cake" is one of the four famous places in Hefei and enjoys a high reputation in the whole country. Hefei sesame cake is made of white sugar and rock sugar, with shredded green, and then mixed with sesame oil. It is made of fine flour, wrapped in it, covered with sesame seeds, and put into the oven. This kind of sesame seed cake is as yellow as crab shell, with white edges, crisp but not burnt, sweet and soft.

Hefei hemp cake has a long history. According to legend, in the Northern Song Dynasty, Hefei had a solid cake the size of a copper coin made of flour, and there were many sesame seeds outside the cake. At that time, it was called "money cake", which was a snack that people often ate on holidays. At the end of Yuan Dynasty, the Red Scarf Army peasant uprising broke out in Huaibei area. Hefei is very close to Huaibei, and many poor farmers have joined the rebel army. In Zhu Yuanzhang's army, general Zhang Desheng was from Hefei. Zhu Yuanzhang sent Zhang Desheng to lead the water army to attack yuxikou, a port near the Yangtze River. Zhang Desheng's water forces are all children from their hometown. In order to make the soldiers eat well and play better, Zhang Desheng ordered the elders in his hometown to make a big "money cake" full of sugar, called hemp cake, as dry food for the water army. The water army is eating snacks at home and is in high spirits. It captured yuxikou with high momentum, defeated the Yuan Army, and captured Cai Shiji with a 56-point advance. This battle laid the foundation for Zhu Yuanzhang to capture Qing Ji (now Nanjing) soon. Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy and called this kind of sesame cake "victory cake".

"Victory Cake" is one of the most popular cakes in Ming Dynasty. After more than 500 years of circulation, in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, a subordinate of Li Hongzhang named Dongshan Liu resigned and returned to his hometown to open a grocery store in Hefei. He hired several pastry chefs to improve the time-honored "victory cake". They made the cake bigger, increased the weight of the stuffing, and the sesame seeds on the skin stuck full and evenly. After the new baked wheat cake went on the market, buyers flocked to the store, and the demand was in short supply, so buyers had to wait in long queues. Dongshan Liu saw this situation and ordered people to refine 800 tubes (10 tubes) and give them to his former boss, Li Hongzhang. After eating it, Li Hongzhang thought that this kind of baked wheat cake could rival Suzhou dim sum, so he gave it to his colleagues in the imperial court. In this way, Dongshan Liu's products are famous all over the country. Now Hefei sesame cake is still the best seller in China, and it can still be bought in Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

[Tiger skin tofu]

Anhui famous dishes. "Maodoufu" is a traditional dish in Huizhou. Because tofu is artificially fermented, its surface grows a layer of white fine hairs (white mycelium), so it is called "hairy tofu". Tofu is decomposed into various amino acids by protein during fermentation, which is more delicious than ordinary tofu. "Tiger skin hairy tofu" is named after the fur has tiger skin stripes after being fried by kang. According to legend, Zhu Yuanzhang was defeated in Huizhou and fled to Xiuning. He was hungry, so he ordered his followers to look for food everywhere. One of them found a few pieces of tofu hidden here by the refugees from the haystack, but it had fermented long hair. Because there was nothing else, his followers had to roast it on charcoal fire for Zhu Yuanzhang to eat. Unexpectedly, tofu tastes delicious, and Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to eat it. After turning defeat into victory, he ordered the army chefs to make hairy tofu to reward the three armies, and "hairy tofu" was handed down in Huizhou. The method of "tiger skin hairy tofu" is to fry the "hairy tofu" in a pot until both sides are yellow, then stew it with seasoning and dip it in Chili sauce when eating. This dish is fresh, mellow, refreshing and fragrant, and it has a special taste.

Commonly known as "Dai", it was created by Wang Zhihe during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. After tasting it, Emperor Kangxi was full of praise. He also wrote a calligraphy named Fang Qing: Words for Wang Zhihe, which made him famous. Compared with the smelly thousand blocks in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province and the smelly dry incense in Huainan, Anhui Province, it enjoys a good reputation at home and abroad. Huizhou is dull and smelly, with a gray blue-black surface and a white jade inside. It smells bad, tastes strange and has a unique taste. Because the production process of stuffy smell is very complicated, I'm afraid this kind of flavor snack can only be eaten by tourists who come to Huangshan.

【 Laba porridge 】

Laba porridge is a kind of rice eaten by working people in China on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. Laba porridge is made of rice, wheat, soybeans, tofu, meat, vegetables and other ingredients.

But they are all delicious and welcomed by people all over the world.

Laba porridge has been circulating for a long time, more than 600 years ago. According to legend, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was poor when he was a child, so his parents had to send him to the landlord's house to herd cattle for dinner to reduce the burden on his family. The landlord Zhu Yuanzhang went to herd cattle, which was very fierce. As long as there is a slight mistake, he will beat Zhu Yuanzhang, scold him, and often skip meals. One day, Zhu Yuanzhang led the old buffalo across the wooden bridge. The bridge deck is too narrow. The old buffalo stepped empty, fell off the bridge and broke its leg. When the landlord knew about it, he beat Zhu Yuanzhang and locked him in a room without food. This wait is three days and three nights. Zhu Yuanzhang didn't touch a grain of rice or drop a drop of water. He was so hungry that he saw the golden flower. Zhu Yuanzhang searched around the house and found nothing but a broken pot. Just when he was desperate, a mouse ran past him and got into a hole. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to catch a mouse to satisfy his hunger. Maybe he can survive this punishment, so he dug a hole in the mouse hole. Unexpectedly, when I dug it out, the mouse had already run away, but this is the granary of the mouse. There are rice, beans, corn, pearl rice, taro, red dates and so on. Although it is not much, it is all a little. Zhu Yuanzhang put these things together and put them in a broken pot, trying to get some water to cook in the pot. The result is a pot of miscellaneous porridge. Zhu Yuanzhang ate it in one breath, feeling sweeter than eating anything. When Zhu Yuanzhang grew up, he joined the peasant uprising army to fight against the landlords. Zhu Yuanzhang fought bravely with great hatred and gradually ascended the throne of the emperor. As an emperor, he has eaten all the delicious food, even the delicacies are tired. One day, he remembered eating mouse food and porridge cooked with beans when he was a child, and felt that he should not forget the bitter days in the past, so that he could work hard. So he ordered the chef to cook a pot of sugar porridge with miscellaneous grains and beans. It was the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. This kind of porridge is called Laba porridge.

Zhu Yuanzhang paid more attention to educating his children. He asked them to eat Laba porridge, and told them not to forget the hardships of their ancestors when they were rich. Seeing that the emperor's family ate Laba porridge, officials of civil and military officials followed suit. Later, people followed suit and reminded themselves to be thrifty and be prepared for danger in times of peace.

【 Pei County Dog Meat 】

"Pei County Dog Meat" is a famous dish in Pei County. Select high-quality dog meat and add clove, pepper, Amomum tsaoko, ginger, Amomum villosum, anise, fennel and cinnamon. Simmer, then take off the soup and color. Pei county dog meat is characterized by no fishy smell, peculiar smell, rich aroma, crisp but not greasy meat, and is suitable for all ages.

Pei county dog meat has a long history, more than two thousand years ago. Its fame is attributed to Liu Bang and Fan Kuai, two celebrities in Peixian County in the late Qin Dynasty and early Han Dynasty. When Fan Kuai was a child, his family was poor and he had no land to farm. He set up a stall to sell dog meat in the west of Sishui River, which flows through Pei County. Not far from the dog meat stall in Fan Kuai, there lived a rogue. He was Liu Bang, the founding emperor of the Western Han Dynasty. Liu bang's family is very rich. His two brothers and father work hard in the fields all the year round, but Liu bang never works and idles all day. Liu Bang especially likes eating dog meat. He eats dog meat from Fan Kuai almost every day. After eating, he pays on credit and often doesn't pay it back. Fan Kuai is a small enterprise. How can he afford it like Liu Bang? But he couldn't save face and fell out with Liu Bang. I had to quietly move the dog meat stall to Hedong. Liu Bang went to the original stall in Fan Kuai for three days without eating dog meat. I didn't know that Fan Kuai had moved to the other side of the river until I asked. Liu bang went to the river ferry and wanted to go to Hedong by ferry. Who knows, because Liu Bang didn't bring money, the owner still owed money before, so he wouldn't be allowed to go. Liu bang was so anxious that his mouth watered. It happened that an old salamander was swimming. Liu bang jumped on the back of the old salamander in despair and swam to Hedong. When Liu Bang saw Fan Kuai, he said a few words and couldn't wait to sit down and eat dog meat. Fan Kuai moved to Hedong for three days. Dog meat can't be sold because of the new booth. When Liu Bang ate it, the whole people rushed to buy it, and the dog meat accumulated for three days was quickly sold out. From then on, as long as he was free, Liu Bang invited the old catfish to cross the river to eat dog meat for free. Seeing that Liu Bang could not escape, Fan Kuai hated the old catfish, so he secretly killed the old catfish and cooked it with dog meat. Unexpectedly, dog meat has become fresher. Without an old mule to carry him through the transition period, Liu Bang couldn't eat Fan Kuai's dog meat often, and his heart was very unhappy. Soon, he became the curator of Surabaya Pavilion. On the pretext that Fan Kuai had a bad temper, he confiscated Fan Kuai's meat cleaver. Fan Wei doesn't have a knife, so he must cook the dog meat more thoroughly and then sell it to diners by hand. Who knows this crispy dog meat tastes better when it's torn?

At the end of Qin Dynasty, both Liu Bang and Fan Kuai took part in the peasant uprising. Later, Liu Bang became emperor and Fan Kuai became his general. They have also become brothers-in-law, so naturally they don't have to worry about eating dog meat. When Liu Bang came home dressed in gold, he remembered the dog meat in his hometown, so he called his elders and villagers and drank with a large piece of dog meat. When the wine was hot, Liu Bang, who was full of ambition, danced and sang "Song of the Wind". Since then, Pei County's dog meat is famous all over the country.

[Luzhou Snacks]

Luzhou snacks (Hefei was called Luzhou in ancient times) are rich in local characteristics. Like Luzhou cuisine, it occupies a considerable position in the treasure house of Anhui cooking skills.

Historically, Luzhou was once the ancient battlefield of the Three Kingdoms and the Eastern Jin Dynasty, living between Jianghuai and the northern mouth of Chaohu Lake, and the Ming and Qing governments were in charge of Lujiang and Chaohu Lake respectively. After liberation, it became the capital of Anhui Province and the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of the province. The unique political and geographical conditions enable her to learn the names of snacks from all over the province and inherit the essence of ancient Luzhou snacks, which are eclectic and colorful.

Especially after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the provincial capital moved to Hefei, and snacks developed greatly. At that time, snacks accounted for about 70% of the catering market. Except for a few shops, most of them set up stalls and bought them in alleys. Most of them are fried stinky dry food, salt tea list, sugar fried sesame seeds, mung bean seeds, pumpkin cakes, wonton, white sugar jiaozi and leek boxes. Some stores are well-run and famous for their exquisite craftsmanship, such as "Liu Hongsheng's chicken soup Daoxiao Noodles, wonton jiaozi, mushroom chicken jiaozi, and" Wu Hongfa's chicken blood paste "; Rice flour meat from Changchun; " Tangyuan and egg buns in Xiaonanyuan; Crab-yellow glutinous rice balls in Guanghan Palace; Five flavors of Yuanxiao in Wuweizhai; "Daya building" dumplings; Mingjue Temple Laba porridge; "Happy Lin" fried dumpling jiaozi; Fuxing Garden has fried sesame cakes, toad cakes and shepherd's purse gardens. There are also some teahouses, such as Wanhua Building, Fozhao Building and Huibin Building. There are lion heads with small flowers, small burns, four-color small cages, crown dumplings and leek spring rolls, which are also quite distinctive. After some shops became famous for snacks, some people imitated and competed with them, such as Du Hongsheng and Sai Hongsheng. After the founding of New China, under the care of the Party and the government, Luzhou snacks created many new varieties on the basis of inheriting the tradition, which made the ancient Luzhou snacks glow with youthful brilliance. The flavor and dietary customs of Luzhou snacks are different from those of the north and the south. There is a jingle "sesame cake, jade belt cake, inch gold, slice, scone, Daoxiao Noodles, wonton, dried jiaozi, sesame oil, steamed stuffed bun and fried dough sticks wrapped in dragon lanterns". The first two sentences refer to Luzhou cakes, and the last two sentences refer to Luzhou snacks. These snacks are not as strong as those in the north, nor as sweet as those in the south. They are all moderately sweet and salty, and pay attention to fresh fragrance. The eating custom of "wrapping fried dough sticks in the Dragon Lantern Festival" is very common, just like the fried cakes and scallions in the north and the potatoes and beef in the Soviet Union, which are inseparable. The Dragon Lantern Festival is fragrant but dry, and the fried dough sticks are glutinous but greasy. The fried dough sticks wrapped in the Dragon Lantern Festival lend each other flavor, which is sweet and greasy. Pasta has always been in the first place in Luzhou snacks, not only beautifully made, but also a wide variety. For example, in jiaozi, there are mushroom chicken jiaozi, wonton jiaozi, dried jiaozi, zongzi, fried dumplings, fried dumplings with eggs and so on, each with its own characteristics and tastes. In addition, such as Luyang baozi, Daoxiao Noodles, Luohan navel, fresh meat and hemp ball, flower lion head, egg pupa crisp and so on are also outstanding in food. For example, "Lohan navel" looks like Lohan navel, with milky white color, crisp flower layers and layers of depressions in the middle, such as gold thread winding, fresh lines, unique shape, heavy oil but not greasy, crisp and fragrant, and various fruity spices. It is a good snack for banquets and gifts to relatives and friends. The delicious snacks in Luzhou are directly related to the chef's skills. The variety of snacks is fine and there are many processes. If you are careless, you will be deformed and stale. So they pay great attention to the use of skills. The production techniques of Luzhou snacks mainly include steaming, frying, frying, roasting, pasting and baking, among which there are rolling, pulling, wrapping, rolling, cutting and kneading. For example, "jiaozi with Mushroom and Chicken" has to go through more than a dozen procedures, such as stuffing, hanging soup, kneading dough, Lamian Noodles, stuffing, pot filling, bowl filling and ingredients. Any sloppy process can't have the effect of "fresh chicken soup with mushrooms and tender dumplings".

Luzhou snacks are also characterized by strict stuffing making and oil temperature control. When making stuffing, we should pay attention to freshness, tenderness and fragrance, such as "Luyang Tangbao". The stuffing must be three points fat and seven points thin, and the stuffing should be jelly, so that the soup is fresh and tender. Tangyuan, zongzi and dried bean curd cakes should be filled with dried bean curd, which is soft and tender. "shepherd's purse garden" and "leek box" pay attention to leek and shepherd's purse as stuffing, leaving fragrance at the entrance. In terms of oil temperature control, such as "Lohan navel", there must always be 50% oil temperature, and high or low oil temperature is not appropriate. "Flower lion head" is 50% oil in the pot, which is gradually heated until it is cooked and crisp, and it will be broken in one shot.

With the improvement of people's living standards, people have higher and higher requirements for snack varieties. Many shops in Luzhou snack have some well-known varieties. For example, today's Luzhou Hotel's glutinous rice oil fragrance, small flower lion head, Luzhou soup packets, as well as unique egg flower pot stickers and fresh meat balls. The egg frying pan is steamed first and then fried. Eight jiaozi eggs and one egg stir-fry jiaozi together. The egg is golden and translucent, the skin is flexible and chewy, and the filling is tender and delicious. The "fresh meat hemp ball" is full of empty inside, and the meat stuffing rolls in the middle, which is fragrant and delicious.

The "duck oil biscuits" in Luzhou Roast Duck Restaurant are golden and full, crisp and creative. The "egg cake" in Guangming restaurant is oily, crisp and fragrant. Noodles are lightly fried on both sides in a flat-bottomed pot, and the prepared eggs are pressed in when they are opened. Eggs are fried face to face, which is elegant. The steamed dumplings with chicken oil in Jiushi Garden are steamed with chicken oil, which is fresh and delicious. In addition, Luyang soup buns, Laba porridge, Hefei crisp sesame seed cake, Luohan navel, grand restaurant, fresh meat buns and morning tea in Xihai Hotel, bean juice, bean brain and zongzi in Northland Hotel, chicken blood paste and Yuanxiao in Xiaoyao Hotel, bean brain cake in Huaishang Hotel, silkworm pupa cake, sesame seed cake and steamed dumplings with chicken juice in Huangshan Cai Hui Pavilion all add luster to Luzhou snacks.
