How did the name of ham sausage come from?

According to legend, eight hundred years ago, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty wanted to rebuild the splendid land of abundance, so he chose a good date early and ordered all the officials to come to the court to plan for the country and bring a delicious tribute.

After the imperial edict went down, the officials of the civil and military officials in the DPRK immediately sent people to run around, wading through mountains and rivers, and collecting rare delicacies. On that day, someone brought beautiful birds from the sky; Some bring strange fish in the sea; Others brought exotic beasts in the valley and famous dishes in the fields. ...

At that time, there was a general in North Korea, Zong Ze, who came from Yiwu. To this end, he returned to his hometown all the way. It was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the villagers invited Zong Ze to taste zongzi made of salted pork legs, which is a favorite food for hometown people all year round. Zong Ze tasted it, and found the salty pork legs inside delicious, fragrant and delicious, so he chose some of the best salty pork legs to take to Kyoto and presented them to the Emperor.

. The emperor and the civil and military officials tasted the salty pork leg and were full of praise.

In memory of the famous hometown of Zong Ze, please give this salty pig leg a name. So, civil and military officials discussed each other. It is said that the meat of salted pork leg has its unique taste and bright red color. Call it ham!

From then on, "Ham" became more and more famous and sold more and more widely, attracting people at home and abroad.

Great.
