It is said that once, Empress Dowager Cixi became tired of eating the food in the palace and wanted to try something new. So, the imperial chef thought about it and decided to make a new dish with glutinous rice flour wrapped in red bean paste. As soon as the new dishes were prepared, a eunuch named Xiao Donkey came to the imperial kitchen. Unexpectedly, the little donkey accidentally touched the newly prepared dishes into a basin containing soybean noodles. This worried the imperial chef, but it was too late to cook again at this time. There was no choice, so the chef had to brave the courage and present the dish to the Empress Dowager Cixi. When Empress Dowager Cixi ate this new thing, she thought it tasted good, so she asked the chef,"What is this thing called?" The chef thought for a moment and realized that it was all the trouble caused by the eunuch named Xiao Donkey, so he said to Empress Dowager Cixi: "This is called 'donkey rolling.'" From then on, the snack of "Donkey Rolling" came into being.
