According to legend, in ancient times there was a beggar who stole a hen. When there was a shortage of pots and stoves, he wrapped the chicken in mud and grilled it in the wood fire. After it was cooked, the mud was stripped off. Unusually delicious. Later, this mud-roasting technique was introduced to restaurants and restaurants, and after continuous development and improvement, it has gradually become a traditional famous dish in Hangzhou. When making beggar chickens at home, the use of soil is not very hygienic, and the kitchen is dirty. You can use tin foil instead, which is simple and convenient. "
