Foreign media: The history of Chinese pancakes can be traced back 5,000 years ago, and the ancient griddle found at the Yanshao site in Henan province confirms this long history.
Popular legends say that pancakes originated from the myth of Nüwa mending the sky. According to the legend, Nüwa melted five-colored stones on the riverbed to mend the sky, and the patches she made were considered the earliest pancakes; another legend claims that pancakes were invented by Xiang Yu, a general who led an uprising at the end of the Qin Dynasty.
This daily breakfast has been recorded in ancient paintings and poetry, reflecting its profound cultural heritage.
