Doupi
Doupi, also called "triple delicacy doupi", is a breakfast dish from the city of Wuhan in Hubei province. It is often sold as a street food.
Origin
The name of the food comes from the material of the outside layer, which is made out of a blend of green bean powder, eggs, milk, and flour.This dish was invented in 1931 by a local chef who improved the traditional doupi cooking style and later went on to open the famous restaurant named Laotongcheng.
At the beginning, people made doupi as holiday meals at every festival. They mixed mung beans with rice and ground it into a paste. Then they spread the paste into a thin pancake named "bean skin" and used it to wrap sticky rice and diced meat. Finally, they fried it. Many years later, doupi became a common breakfast food.
