Basic introduction of Wuhan Mianwo

Mianwo is unique to Wuhan and was founded during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty (1875-1909 AD). At that time, there was a Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle) seller named Chang Zhiren near Jijiazui, Hanzheng Street, Hankou. Seeing that the business of selling Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle) was not good, he tried to create new varieties for breakfast. After careful consideration, he asked a blacksmith to make a hollow iron spoon with a concave shape, pour rice slurry made from a mixture of rice and soybeans into it, sprinkle black sesame seeds on it, and deep fry it in oil. Soon, circular rice cakes with thick edges and hollow, crispy and fragrant colors were made. People think it's very unique, with thick and soft texture, thin and crispy texture, and a great taste. Chang Zhiren called it Mianwo, which has been passed down for over a hundred years and has become a cheap and high-quality specialty breakfast

How did the history of Wuhan Mianwo come about

The history of Mianwo, like other cities in Wuhan, is actually unknown. It is said that it began during the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, there was a Shaobing (Baked cake in griddle) seller named Chang Zhiren near Jijiazui, Hanzheng Street, Hankou. He asked a blacksmith to make a concave spoon, with rice paste mixed with rice and soybeans, sprinkled with black sesame seeds, and fried in a frying pan. Soon, he made round rice cakes with thick sides, hollow sides, yellow, crisp and fragrant colors. People think it's very unique, with thick and soft texture, thin and crispy texture, and a delicious taste. Chang Zhiren calls it a noodle nest. But in reality, there is no specific written record of the origin of the nest, it is just a rumor

The production method of Wuhan noodle nest

The method of making noodle nest is to grind soybeans and a rake into a paste. Mix it evenly with the gray surface. Pour it into a basin. Then prepare a big pot and add more oil. Heat up on the stove. Use a large circular spoon to handle the dough and place the mixed batter on the spoon. Leave a hole in the middle. Fry it in the pot again. When the nest turns golden in the face, pick it up and sprinkle sesame seeds and a little salt, and that's how it's done
