"Yipin Pot" is a kind of hot pot commonly eaten in winter in the mountainous areas of Huizhou. Legend has it that this dish was created by Yu, the first-class imperial wife of Bi Qiang, the "Four Shangshu" of Shitai County in the Ming Dynasty. Once, the emperor suddenly visited Shangshu Mansion as a guest. In addition to delicacies from mountains and seas, his wife specially cooked a Huizhou home-cooked hot pot. The emperor ate with relish and praised him endlessly. Later, when the emperor learned that the delicious hot pot was cooked by his wife herself, he said that it was still a "good pot"! The name of the dish was decided.
