In the Qing Dynasty清朝, Zheng Xingwen, the flag bearer, came to Beijing with his father at the age of 6. He gradually became interested in cooking, and later paid tribute to Chen Caibao陈才保, the successor of Huaiyang cuisine淮扬菜. In 1907, Zheng Xingwen went to Harbin Binjiang Road Yamen to serve as an official chef and prepare meals for Du Xueying in Dakota.

Foreign guests, especially Russian guests, are often entertained in Daotai Mansion. Because foreigners like sweet and sour tastes. Du Xueying ordered the chef to change the taste of the dishes. Zheng Xingwen changed the original salty and fresh taste of “burnt pork sticks焦烧肉条” into sour and sweet dishes, which made Harbin the origin of pot stuffed pork.

This dish is very popular with Russian guests. They always order this dish for each meal. Because of the quick frying, the iron pot is heated, and the juice is poured into the pot and soaked into the meat, so it is named “pot fried meat锅爆肉”. The Russians pronounce the “fried爆” sound as “bao包”. After a long time, “fried meat in a pot” will become “steamed meat in a pot”.

Before the Xi’an Incident, the three eastern provinces were under the jurisdiction of the Zhang family. Many dishes in Daotai Mansion were forbidden and private. After Japan occupied Heilongjiang, some folk crafts and food recipes gradually flowed out, and pot-stuffed pork began to spread in Harbin and outside. Liaoning people have transformed the pot stuffed pork, and the last step is to use tomato sauce or tomato sauce, which looks like the “cherry meat樱桃肉” in Harbin, reducing the original crispy and golden color of pot stuffed pork.

Tips:

  • Beans and pork should not be eaten together, because the phytic acid content in beans is very high, and it often forms a complex with protein and mineral elements, which affects the availability of both and reduces the utilization efficiency; It is also because beans combine with minerals such as calcium, iron, and zinc in meat such as lean meat and fish, thus interfering with and reducing the absorption of these elements by the human body.
