Pancake fruit and crispy rice dishes are unique to Tianjin and rare in other cities. It is said that pancake fruit and crispy rice came from Shandong one hundred years ago and were improved by Tianjin people. In Tianjin Miscellaneous Notes (1884) and A Brief Introduction to Tianjin (1898, that is, two years before Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Tianjin), there is no mention of pancake fruit and crispy rice, so it is unlikely to be popular before Gengzi, for example, since this century. The main ingredients of pancakes are mung beans, millet, dried shrimps (preserved rice), spices and water, which are ground into slurry. Pancakes should be sold in a flat pan. Fry each piece (one egg can spread it), wrap it in fried dough sticks, put it in an oil pan, fry it for a while, slightly scorch it, pour the sauce, sprinkle with chopped green onion and stack it into a set.
Pot dishes are big pancakes spread out in advance, cut into wickers, put into a pot of halogen (which has been burning constantly) and stir a little, even the marinated dishes are put into a bowl. Add fermented milk, sesame sauce, coriander and Chili sauce, and all five flavors are available. Pot dishes should be thinly spread pancakes, and then marinated with gluten-washed pulp powder. Pancake fruit and crispy rice are eaten hot, even in summer. They are mainly mung beans, supplemented by millet, so they can detoxify and clear away heat, stimulate appetite and strengthen the spleen, remove blood stasis and dissipate stagnation, treat constipation, be healthy, never tire of eating, and can also relieve alcohol after drinking.
