She Xiang Hosta

"She Xiang Hosta" is a famous traditional dish with a history of 600 years in Guizhou. Its original name is fried rhinoceros horn, which is fried with fat and thin pork and pepper. According to legend, in the Ming Dynasty, the local rulers in Guizhou used this dish to entertain the envoys sent by the Ming emperor to surrender. As pepper was just introduced into China at that time, and its cultivation and consumption were not yet popular, the envoy didn't know pepper and was not used to spicy taste, and mistakenly thought that the other party had framed him with poison, which led to the interruption of the negotiations. Fortunately, the ruler's wife was clever, and immediately told the court the story. When the court found out 1, she was named "Mrs. Shexiang", so Guizhou surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, and history almost changed because of a dish. Since then, Guizhou has renamed this dish "She Xiang Hosta" in memory of Mrs. Shexiang, which has been passed down to this day.
