Let modern people wonder why the ancients used jiaozi to treat diseases.

According to legend, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Zhongjing became the magistrate of Changsha. Soon, the plague was prevalent, and the official position was unbearable. He resolutely resigned from the prefect to spend his old age and decided to treat the people. At this time, it is the middle of winter. On the way back to his hometown, he saw the poor people who were running for survival. They had no clothes to cover themselves. Many people's ears are frozen and rotten, and their hearts are even worse.

Jiaozi originated in the Eastern Han Dynasty and was initiated by Zhang Zhongjing, a medical sage. At that time, jiaozi was used as a medicine, and Zhang Zhongjing wrapped some cold-dispelling herbs in dough to treat diseases (mutton, pepper, etc. ) to avoid frostbite of patients' ears. During the Three Kingdoms period, jiaozi has become a kind of food, known as "Crescent Wonton". This kind of food is mentioned in the book Guangya written by Wei. According to "Guangya" written by Zhang Yi, wei ren of the Three Kingdoms, there was a crescent-shaped food called "Wonton", which was basically similar to jiaozi.

Eating three fresh vegetables symbolizes the prosperity of Sanyang. People in Taiwan Province Province eat fish balls, meatballs and seaweed, symbolizing reunion and wealth. There are many kinds of jiaozi, because the fillings and making methods are different. Even the same kind of jiaozi, there are different ways to eat it: Daur people in Inner Mongolia and Heilongjiang want to cook jiaozi with vermicelli broth and then dip it in jiaozi soup; Jiaozi was called a "flat food" in the Yuan Dynasty. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Shen Bang's Miscellaneous Notes on Ten Thousand Parts recorded: "New Year's Day, New Year's Day ...... as a patch food". Liu Ruoyu's "Proceedings" records: "Eat fruit snacks on New Year's Day and eat a plaque immediately." The "plaque" of the "plaque food" in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties is now commonly used as "ping". A kind of "flat food" may come from Mongolian.

Jiaozi was handed down from the trough, which was invented in the Han Dynasty. After the crescent-shaped wonton in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Tang and Song Dynasties, the dried meat with double grooves has been circulated for more than 1,400 years.

Jiaozi fragrance used to be more satisfying, and the raw materials were cheaper and more convenient to take. Jiaozi, which used to be vegetarian, especially jiaozi, a wild vegetable, is now more popular. As for its historical origin, it's not convenient to talk nonsense, but it won't admit the patent of jiaozi inventor, because China is vast in territory and abundant in resources, we can only answer that jiaozi originated in the Central Plains! Eat all over the country! Transform among the people!
