The next day, when all the guests arrived, the scholar's wife immediately brought out four dishes: a green onion on a plate, and two golden egg yolks beside the onion. "Two orioles sing green willows," the scholar's wife chanted in imitation of the tone of scholars' usual poetry. The second dish is covered with a piece of green leaves, which are neatly numbered with fresh bean sprouts. "A line of egrets goes up to the sky," the hostess chanted. In the third dish, there is a bean curd inside, and a thin layer of salt is sprinkled carefully. "The window contains snow in Xiling" is cadenced, and the words are shocking.

In the Tang Dynasty, there was a very clever chef who liked to use famous poems to cook dishes. Whenever he cooks a good dish, he must match it with a famous poem, which will last for a long time and be famous far and near. Everyone calls him the "poetry chef". One day, a man wanted to play a trick on him by giving him two eggs to make him a banquet, and each dish should quote a poem from a contemporary celebrity to make up a poem. The chef readily agreed. Later, the banquet was opened. Four dishes: the first one is two steamed egg yolks; The second one is covered with a row of small pieces of protein on the leaves of green vegetables; The third is a plate of scrambled eggs and white flowers; The fourth is a bowl of clear soup with seasoning, and there are four and a half eggshells floating on the soup.
