The origin of moon cakes is also called Hu cake, which is a tribute of Hu people.

The origin of moon cakes should start from the Tang Dynasty. At first, the moon cake was a tribute food from Hu people, so the original moon cake was called Hu cake. However, when Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei enjoyed the moon together, they thought the word "Hu Bing" didn't sound elegant, so they changed it to moon cakes. Since then, moon cakes have become popular. In the later dynasties of China, mooncakes were not eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and this kind of food became more and more popular. The famous poet Su Dongpo also wrote? A cupcake is like chewing the moon. Is there potato chips and stuffing in it? That famous poem, perhaps the name of the moon cake also comes from this.

Moon cakes are the traditional food in China, which is the standard of Mid-Autumn Festival, while zongzi is the standard of Dragon Boat Festival. Every Dragon Boat Festival, we will eat zongzi and row dragon boats in memory of the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan. Besides, northerners will eat jiaozi in the Spring Festival to celebrate the New Year, while southerners usually eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls in the Lantern Festival, hoping that the coming year will be smooth and complete. In the northern Halloween, oranges are usually eaten. On February 2nd every year, when the dragon looks up, many places will choose to eat some foods related to the dragon, such as Longxu Noodles, dragon-shaped oil cakes and so on. I hope the new year can have a good start.

The food left over from Chinese civilization is not only the food that will be eaten at various festivals in China, but also many foods left over from history, such as Su Dongpo's braised pork. After time improvement, it has become a daily dish, fat but not greasy. Beef noodles in Lanzhou, China have spread all over the country, and their rich taste and Lamian Noodles have left us wanting more. Speaking of noodles, China Xi 'an's noodles are a must. People who have eaten some pasta, such as oil-sprinkled noodles and Dandan Noodles, will say yes. Chongqing's hot pot and Sichuan's Sichuan cuisine make people who like heavy tastes yearn for it.

Living in China is very happy. We not only have great rivers and mountains for us to enjoy, but also all kinds of delicious food waiting for us to taste. Every holiday, we also have corresponding food to remind our old friends.
