Legend has it that a long time ago, a scholar studied hard at Hu Xinting in Nanhu, Yunnan. His wife has to cross the bridge to deliver meals to the scholar every day. One day, the wife felt that her husband was very hard, so she stewed a chicken and put it in a clay pot for her husband to eat. However, something happened on the way and it was delayed. When she came back, she found that the chicken in the casserole was still hot. When she opened it, she found a thick layer of butter on it, so she made rice noodles for her husband with chicken oil. After eating, the scholar was full of praise. Because his wife has to cross the bridge to deliver meals in Nanhu every day, the scholar named it "crossing the bridge rice noodles".
Crossing the bridge rice noodles has a history of more than one hundred years. According to legend, in the Qing Dynasty, there was an island in the middle of a lake outside Mengzi County in southern Yunnan. A scholar went to study on the island. The scholar's wise and hardworking wife often cooks his favorite rice noodles and sends them to him for dinner, but when he leaves the island, the rice noodles are not hot. Later, I accidentally sent chicken soup, and Miss Scholar found that the chicken soup was covered with a thick layer of chicken oil, which could keep it warm. If you put seasoning and rice noodles before eating, it will be more refreshing. So she first cooked the clear soup of fat chicken and boy bone and smeared it with thick chicken oil; Rice noodles are made at home. Many ingredients are sliced on the island and cooked in boiling oil. Then rice noodles are added, which is delicious and smooth. As soon as this law was spread, people followed suit, because it was necessary to cross the bridge to the island and to commemorate this good wife. Later people called it "crossing the bridge rice noodle".
Through the continuous improvement and innovation of famous chefs with Yunnan flavor in past dynasties, the fame of "Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles" is increasing day by day, enjoying a good reputation at home and abroad, and becoming a famous snack in southern Yunnan.
