In 956, Later Zhou Shizong Chai Rong marched on Huainan and ordered the general Zhao Kuangyin to lead an army to attack Southern Tang (present-day Shou County). The Southern Tang defenders swore to resist to the death, the battle was fierce, Zhao Kuangyin could not attack for a long time, and almost missed the military plane. As a result, there was a shortage of grain, and later it was this oily bread that saved him, so he was called "Great Rescue Driver" (Rescue Drive: refers to saving the emperor and the king).
"Big Rescue Drive" is a delicious spot with a long history in Shou County. According to legend, Zhao Kuangyin was overly tired during the attack on the Southern Tang Dynasty and did not think about tea and rice. A chef made a snack with the best white noodles, sugar, sesame oil, green and red silk, walnut kernels and other ingredients, and the outer skin of this dim sum has several flower puff pastries layered on top of each other, and the golden strips are clearly distinguished, and the middle is like a rapid vortex, because it is fried in oil, the color is golden, and the aroma is fragrant. Zhao Kuangyin felt crisp and sweet after tasting it, and his appetite increased greatly. After he became emperor, he remembered the Battle of the Southern Tang Dynasty and this kind of pastry, and said: "That kurama labor, the disease after the war, thanks to this pastry to save the car." So people call this pastry "the great rescue".
