cold vegetarian dish made of soybeans that look like ham

Plain ham is a famous traditional dish. It has a history of more than 1500 years. It is the product of the combination of Buddhist culture and food culture. The main ingredient is bean curd. It's named after its resemblance. The finished product is red and white, sweet and tender, vivid in color and shape, and beneficial to the lung and kidney, Qi and stomach.

Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty, was building the capital of Kangcheng (now Nanjing). After he ascended the throne, Emperor Wu of Liang believed in Buddhism, gave up his house as Zhibao temple, and worshipped monk Zhigong as his teacher, so he became a Buddhist disciple. Emperor Wu of the Liang Dynasty abstained from killing animals and eating vegetarian food. He also called many famous monks from all over the country to the capital for discussion, and organized debates on whether Buddhists should eat vegetarian food or not? Finally, the majority of monks reached a consensus: to be a qualified monk must have "five commandments". The first of the five Commandments is to abstain from killing animals. Buddhists should be vegetarian. As a result, the imperial court decreed that all monks were vegetarian. As the emperor, Liang Wudi set an example for the monks. The "five animals" - cattle, sheep, pig, chicken and fish, which were used to sacrifice ancestors and gods of heaven and earth, were replaced by bean products or dried noodles, but the original name was retained. Therefore, the names of vegetarian chicken and Ham have been used to this day. After the northern and Southern Dynasties, this custom was introduced into the folk.
