Many famous snacks in Beijing are related to Empress Dowager Cixi, and doornail patties are no exception. One day, the chef of the Imperial Chef made a stuffing snack for Cixi. After eating it, Cixi found it palatable and liked it very much, so she asked what it was. There was no name at that time, the queen mother asked. Can't you say you don't know? So, the chef thought of the nail hat on the court gate, so he casually said, this is called doornail patties, and doornail patties were born.

Door nail patties are made of butter, oily and easy to solidify. It is best to eat them while they are hot and delicious. But eat it while it is hot, but you can't bite it down, which is easy to burn your mouth and get greasy. Therefore, you must pay attention to eating doornail patties. In addition, it is best to pour some vinegar when eating, which is not greasy.
