Hulutou(Broth with intestines and tripe), is a local delicacy in Xi’an. 
Its raw materials are intestine. Before it is served, the customer needs
 to break the pancake into small pieces, then the chef soaks them in the
 boiling bone soup three or four times with pork intestine, pork tripe, 
chicken, sea cucumber and squid on the top. Afterward, lard and greens 
are added to it. It is often served with preserved garlic and chili jam.
 It is said that this culinary method was passed down from Sun Simiao, 
the famous doctor in the Tang Dynasty, to an owner of a restaurant in 
Chang'an with a bottle gourd of medicine for the flavoring. After the 
owner of the  restaurant improved the delicacy in light with what Sun 
Simiao told him, the delicacy became known as broth with Intestines and 
Tripe for thousands of years. |
