A LITTLE SOMETHING TO READ
Story & history
The broth links the meat and bread
This account describes a tradition or story, rather than an established historical fact.
This Siping specialty pairs smoked pork with layered flatbread. The pork is cooked in seasoned stock before smoking. Fat from that stock is worked into the bread’s pastry layers and used on the griddle, carrying the pork flavor into the bread itself. The two parts belong together: removing the meat slices does not make the bread vegetarian.
