The history of baked wheat cakes in Dengfeng, my hometown.

Sesame sesame seed cake is said to be a special food created by Qin Gui in Dengfeng to commemorate Yue Fei's resistance to gold. At first, it was shaped like an old turtle with two faces, Qin Gui and Wang. Later, it evolved into this circle. Sesame-covered sesame cake is the best, with golden color, delicious taste, crisp and round. In the past, Sun Hema's biscuits were in short supply because of their excellent color, fragrance and shape.

Dengfeng sesame seed cake, also known as Jiaogai sesame seed cake, is a traditional famous spot of Han nationality in Dengfeng, Henan Province. It not only has a long history, but also has very fine workmanship. It is made of pure natural wheat and white sesame. Ground wheat and white sesame seeds are mixed together to form a flexible dough. After the dough was divided into cakes, after several complicated processes, it became the present sesame cake. It tastes burnt and tastes like white sesame seeds. This is really great. Cooking cakes are really a must!

According to legend, this sesame cake was made by a bartender in Dengfeng. Yue Fei, a famous anti-gold star, came to Dengfeng to fight against nomadic people. After winning, he ate in a hotel. The bartender in this restaurant has admired Yue Fei for a long time, and doesn't charge for drinks and meals, but Yue Fei still gave the money to the bartender in full, and the bartender was very moved. Later, the bad news came from Beijing. Yue Fei was killed by Qin Gui, who was 1 seeking glory. People hate Qin Gui and call him a tortoise. So the bartender baked noodles in the shape of turtles on the fire. Think of it as Qin Gui, as the staple food of this hotel, and name it Qin Gui. As soon as the news came out, many people came to buy a bartender, thinking that he still couldn't get over it, so they made up a jingle: "Qin Gui Qin Gui, you are a turtle, killing loyalty like snakes and scorpions, eating your meat, drinking your blood, and finally opening your lid." Let people say this jingle before eating. Later, people learned that when the turtle was roasted on the fire, it would retract its head, hands and feet into its shell, so it gradually evolved. After hundreds of years of evolution, it finally became what it is today.
