Crispy rice dish
Overview
Crispy rice is a snack with strong local characteristics in Tianjin. It was created during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. It is characterized by excellent color, flavor and taste. The most famous one is made under the Dafulai brand. Speaking of which, this crispy rice dish has a great origin. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Zhang Ji's pancake shop business was doing very well in the market. One time, Emperor Qianlong passed by this place for a private visit in disguise. Qianlong, who was used to eating delicacies from all over the world, especially wanted to try the most delicious pancake roll with green onions. After eating comfortably, he would inevitably choke if he was anxious, so he wanted to order hot soup from the store. The store did not sell soup, but Zhang Lan, the shopkeeper, felt that the old man was well-spoken and had a high status, so he hurriedly called his wife, Sister Guo, to prepare some. This Guo Bajie came from a hard-earned background and grew up in hundreds of households. She was quick and agile in her work. When she saw a customer being impatient, she thought of the sticky rice and kimchi soup she used to eat in the past, which relieved her fullness and fatigue. Immediately, he tore the ready-made pancakes into pieces and dipped them into the vegetable soup, then added some oil, salt, coriander and other condiments, and a large bowl of hot clear soup was served. Qianlong was choking uncomfortably. When he saw the soup, he drank it without explanation. The pancakes were refreshing and the clear soup was smooth. Qianlong pointed at the soup and asked: What is its name? Sister Guo Ba thought she was asking her name, and then replied: Guo Ba... When Qianlong heard this, Guo Ba was reasonable, Guo Ba's Gaba! If you add another word for vegetable, it is called crispy rice. It is best to eat dry food, which is even better. The next day, Qianlong's bodyguard came to Zhang Ji Pancake Shop and said: Shopkeeper, your great blessing has come! Zhang Lan was confused. Do you know who ate pancakes yesterday? It is the current emperor Qianlong! The emperor praised your rice dumplings for being good. Seeing that you live a poor life, he gave you a special reward of 200 taels of silver. Zhang Lan was surprised and happy when she took the money, and immediately called out to her wife to kowtow and thank her. From then on, Zhang Lan replaced Zhang Ji with Dafu as the name of the shop, and the pancake shop was also changed into a rice cake shop. With the seal granted by Qianlong, the business of the rice cake shop was very prosperous. During the Guangxu period, Zhang Lan's great-grandson Zhang Qifa improved the technology, invented the big and small stew method and added six kinds of small ingredients. He continued to improve and improve it, and finally there is a famous Chinese snack that people praise today - Dafulai Guoba Cai
