[Xianglan Family] Golden Wowotou, coarse grains dominate

Overview

I recall that in those days, this was used by poor people to quench their hunger; now, this healthy whole grain is the star of the dinner table! Having said that, this wowotou has some background: It is said that the Eight-Power Allied Forces attacked Beijing, and the Empress Dowager Cixi took Emperor Guangxu and others into a hasty escape, and stayed in Xiguanshi Village on the outskirts of Beijing that night. When Cixi suddenly came to Guanshi, the first thing she wanted was food. The headmaster of the temple, Cai Wanchun, and others hurriedly prepared meals. The most convenient way was to cook fresh corn for the hungry Cixi, Guangxu, and ministers. Later, the villagers served steamed cornmeal steamed buns. After a long journey and no food or water, Cixi had never been so hungry. At this time, she ignored her dignity and ate the hot steamed buns, which she found very delicious. So he asked what it was made of, and Li Lianying replied that it was made of sticks. After hearing this, the Queen Mother said: Why is such a delicious thing called Bangzi? Let's call it Yumi instead. From then on, the stick got a new name from the royal family, and over time, it became known as corn. Coarse grain steamed buns are made from natural green whole grains as the main raw material. The fiber content is very high, which has the characteristics of stimulating gastrointestinal peristalsis and accelerating fecal excretion. It can prevent and treat constipation, enteritis, intestinal cancer, etc. The corn oil contained in it can lower serum cholesterol and prevent the occurrence of high blood pressure and coronary heart disease.
