The Origin of Wula Manchu Hotpot
There are many versions of the origin of Wula Manchu hot pot, and there are three common sayings. Speaking of/kloc-the fishing and hunting people who lived in the northeast more than 0/000 years ago, they originated in Liao and Jin Dynasties. They stewed birds, animals, fish and shrimps and collected plants in clay pots or clay pots, forming the embryonic form of hot pot. The second argument is: When the army of Nuzhen (the predecessor of Manchu) fought against the Yuan Dynasty, there was a popular diet in the army. Put up a shelf on the ground, put a big iron pot with water, slice the meat of wild boar and other prey and cook it instantly, which not only saves time, but also facilitates marching and fighting. Later, it gradually evolved into Manchu hot pot. The third argument is that it originated in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and Emperor Qianlong especially liked to eat hot pot. According to legend, when he visited Wula, Jilin Province for many times, local officials rushed to pay tribute to hot pot to please him, and eating hot pot in government and public places gradually became a fashion.
