"Golden cake" is the honorary name of hawthorn cake. Hehe, old Beijingers used to call it "golden cake". The reason why it is called "golden cake" is because this kind of delicacy was developed by the imperial restaurant in the Qing Dynasty. The imperial ban was very strict, especially during the Yongzheng emperor’s period. The rules of the inner court were very strict. The concubines and maids in the harem rarely got exercise. They often suffered from chronic diseases such as food accumulation and indigestion. This kind of snack came into being when it was made by the house. There is also the "Hawthorn Pill" sold in Beijing Tongrentang Pharmacy, which is also a good medicine for the palace in the Qing Dynasty.
"Golden cake" is a kind of snack, often given by the emperor as a reward to the princes to taste. Later, the method of making golden cake spread outside the palace, and people called it "golden cake" which means gold. For a long time, golden cakes were only made by chefs in the palace, and then they gradually spread widely, and the method of making them was no longer kept secret.
Today, I use the traditional golden cake of old Beijing to make a palace dish "Golden Cake Mixed with Beijing White". "Jingbai" is the Chinese cabbage produced in Beijing, commonly known as "Jingbai". Old Beijing's Chinese cabbage used to be produced in the Miyun area of Huairou. The outer color of the cabbage is green and the inside is white. It is crispy and sweet after the entrance is a good vegetable. Fine varieties are also the housekeeping dishes of Beijingers in the winter. Every family has to store hundreds of catties or hundreds of catties of Chinese cabbage by the end of autumn and early winter, and some store more than 1,000 catties, depending on the size of the family, until the beginning of the Spring Festival of the calendar year. Even so, every year In the beginning of spring, there will be ten and a half months of non-green and yellow days. At that time, only pickles or sauerkraut pickled in winter were used to fill the temporary stalls. At this time, Beijing Liubiju's pickles are also selling well! In the words of Xiuxu, the book is back to the main story, the method of "golden cake mixed with Beijing white" is as follows;
