Now, large and small restaurants, "Kung Pao Chicken" this dish is It is quite common for. Somemenu written in a spicy chicken cubes with peanuts, some people think that cooking method for"add", in fact this is a misunderstanding, not clear "origin Kung Pao Chicken".Speaking of "Kung Pao Chicken", of course, not to mention its inventor -- Ding Baozhen.According to the "Qingshi Gao" records: Ding Baozhen, word Chih Huang, Guizhou Pingyuan people, three years Xianfeng Jinshi, Guangxu two years as governor of sichuan. According to legend, Ding Baozhen has studied the cooking, likes to eat chicken and peanuts, andparticularly fond of spicy. When he was in the Sichuan governor served in the creation of a will be minced chicken, red pepper, peanuts wok stir fry delicacy. This delicious was just Ding Jia"private kitchens", but later spread to more and more wide, be known to all. But I know why it is called "Kung Pao" person is not much.The so-called "Kung Pao", is actually Ding Baozhen's honor rank. According to the "Chinaancient official dictionary" interpretation of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the two generation ofofficials at all levels have "virtual armature". The most senior title of a virtual "Taishi, a small division, Tai Fu, Shao Fu, Pacific Insurance, a small security, Mme, Prince little teacher, Taifu,Prince Shao Fu, Prince Edward Taibao prince, Tai Zi Shao bao". All of these are false with sealto the ministers, no real power, and some still died posthumously, commonly known as the"palace of the title". In after Xianfeng, this title is no longer used several virtual "a division" and more "a certain guarantee", so the most advanced bearing has a nickname -- "Gong Bao". Ding Baozhen Zhi Shu ten years, official upright and outspoken, more productive, in eleven years Guangxu died in office. The Qing government in recognition of his achievements, awarded the"Prince Edward taibao". As mentioned, "Prince Edward Taibao" is one of "Kung Pao", so heinvented the dish which is named after the "Kung Pao Chicken", also be to the Ding adultsmemorial.Today, many people have not "Kung Pao" as it is, will most probably it did not actually happen to"Kung Pao Chicken" written "spicy chicken cubes with peanuts", although the change of one word, but changed to commemorate Ding Baozhen's original intention!
