Back then, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement swept half of the Qing Dynasty. The regular army of the Qing Dynasty could not resist and had to use local armed forces, which led to the Hunan Army , which later influenced the course of Chinese history. Starting from the second year of Xianfeng, Zeng Guofan led elite Hunan Army troops to go out for war for years. The years of wars made the soldiers of the Hunan Army feel homesick again and again, so a accompanying chef made a sauce based on the taste of his hometown, which was very popular among the soldiers. Everyone named the chef "Sauce Laogong". Later, Zeng Guofan brought wheat sauce to Cixi and was engraved with the inscription for praise: "Salty, fresh, spicy and sweet, with purple and bright edges in red."

"Sauce Lao Gu" sauce

"Sauce Lao Gu" sauce is divided into two types: wheat sauce and hot sauce. "Sun and night dew" is the most distinctive feature of "Sauce Old Man" wheat sauce. In midsummer, hundreds of sauce jars are exposed to the scorching sun, and you have to turn the sauce several times in the scorching sun. When you are dew at night, you must be on duty all night and observe the weather every hour. If the weather changes slightly, you must add a lid, because once rain enters the soy sauce jar, all your efforts will be wasted. In this way, the temperature, humidity and other aspects of the sauce are strictly grasped. After more than 40 days, the probiotics in the sauce jar will become oily, fresh, sweet, spicy and salty under the alternating effect of the hot sun and cool night breeze.

"Sauce Lao Gu" hot sauce does not need to be "sun and night dew" like wheat sauce, but the process is also complicated and detailed, and it cannot be made by water, and can only be boiled with oil. First, chop the best chili and other ingredients, add salt, seal the jar for a period of time and ferment it. Then there is the most critical process: boil the sauce over high heat. First, the moisture in the fermented pepper should be thoroughly filtered, and then the first-level physical press of non-GMO rapeseed oil should be used to slowly boil out the residual moisture, and finally concentrate it into a sauce. After filling it into the bottle, sterilize at high temperature again and vacuum to make the bottle sterile. At this point, a bottle of "Sauce Old Man" hot sauce was completed.
