Wugang pot-stewed food has a history of hundreds of thousands of years, and it is impossible to verify which dynasty and generation it began, but pot-stewed food, as a gift between the people and officialdom, has been passed down from generation to generation. It is said that Emperor Qianlong tasted pot-stewed vegetables when he went down to the south of the Yangtze River, and later pot-stewed vegetables were listed as tributes in the Qing Dynasty. On June 29th, 2007, Wugang was named "China City of Braised Vegetables".
