Tradition holds that the dish was served to the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing dynasty during the emperors tour of Pingqiao. In order to please the emperor and get some rewards, Lin Baiwan, a local landowner, had the road from Shanyang City to Pingqiao Zhen decorated with lanterns, colored banners（横幅） and faille（ [ fe?l ]罗缎） and invited the emperor to his home. While he was steeping the Crane Tea（仙鹤茶）, a speciality of Huaian, his cook was braising（[ bre?z ]炖，焖） tofu containing Carp brain（鲤鱼脑） and mother chicken juice for the emperor. When the cook presented the dish, the house was immediately filled with the pleasant aroma（[ ??r??m? ]芳香，香味）. Although the emperor had tasted many delicacies from land and sea, he was so pleased with the dish that he gave it his royal seal（玺） of approval, and named the dish the best food in China. Since then, Pingqiao tofu has become one of the most famous dishes of Huaiyang cuisine（[ kw??zi:n ]菜肴）. 平桥豆腐是提及这菜的来历,还与乾隆南巡有关。平桥是隶属淮安的一座古镇，濒临京杭大运河的东岸，古色古香的街道，加上淳朴敦厚的乡风民俗，使这里很自然地成为了富有情趣、令人向往的地方。相传乾隆皇帝下江南之时，乘龙舟路经这里。当时有位名叫林百万的大财主，认为这是天赐良机，是讨好皇上的大好时机，于是他依仗自己拥有百万家产，令人在淮安至平桥镇四十多里的路上，张灯结彩，铺设罗缎，硬是把皇上接到了家里。 林百万是个很有心计的财主，早在接驾之前，他就派人探听到皇上的饮食口味，所以他命家厨用鲫鱼脑子加老母鸡原汁烩当地的特色豆腐款待乾隆。乾隆虽然尝遍山珍海味，可是他何曾品味过如此具有地方特色的风味呢？因此他品尝以后，连连称好，挥笔写下“天下第一菜” 2 Part Recipe for Pingqiao tofu (dried) shrimps （虾米/虾仁）25g black fungus 30g ham sausage （火腿肠） 30g bamboo shoot （竹笋）30g tofu 300g chicken breast meat（鸡脯肉） 50g fresh mushrooms （蘑菇） 25 g dried scallop（[ ?sk?l?p ] 干贝） 25g garlic （大蒜，蒜头） 15 g onion （[ ??nj?n ]洋葱） 15 g ginger （姜） 10 g cooking/rice wine（料酒） 20g salt
