Allusions to St. Ding Bao

According to legend, when Emperor Qianlong went down to the south of the Yangtze River, he prepared five-dimensional steamed buns with diced sea cucumber, diced chicken, diced meat, diced winter bamboo shoots and shrimps as fillings. After tasting it, he was very happy to say, "Yangzhou steamed stuffed bun lives up to its reputation." Later, considering the consumption level of ordinary people, the five-dimensional steamed stuffed bun was changed into a three-dimensional steamed stuffed bun. The stuffing was stewed with diced chicken, diced meat, diced bamboo shoots, shrimp soup and seasonings, and the taste was still the same.

Yangzhou's "Wuding Steamed Bun" is an innovation based on "Sanding Steamed Bun". Later, the local people thought that the stuffing of this kind of steamed stuffed bun was Wuding, and the founder chef's surname was Ding, so it was called "Wuding steamed stuffed bun". Go to Fuchun Teahouse to taste Sanwuwei steamed stuffed bun, and it will be even more amazing if it is accompanied by its "Kuilongzhu" tea.
