From childhood to adulthood! This dish will make you extremely greedy if you don't eat it for a few days. It is also my mother's specialty. I stew it in a casserole. It is not as delicious as my mother's, but it also won many people with this dish. In the past, my mother used a large pot with a fire in the country to stew it. To eat such delicious meat, I have to thank the inventor of this dish! ! ! The origin of Dongpo Pork: When Su Dongpo was an official in Hangzhou, he organized migrant workers to build a dike in the West Lake. It can make the surrounding fields not afraid of waterlogging or drought, and the crops will have good harvests year after year. It really did a good thing for the people. In order to thank Su Dongpo, during the Spring Festival that year, men, women and children in the city came to him carrying pigs and wine to pay him New Year greetings. Su Dongpo couldn't resist his hospitality, so he accepted the pork. Ask people to cut it into cubes and bake it until it is red and crispy. Then according to the roster of migrant workers, go door to door and distribute the meat to them for the New Year. When the common people saw that Su Dongpo did not forget the migrant workers, they loved him even more and called the meat he sent Dongpo meat.
