In 1980s, it was included in China's famous cookbooks. Founded in 1807, it was jointly founded by Xu, Dou and Zhou Sanjia, hence the name "Sanyichun" mutton restaurant. The established "Sanyichun" mutton restaurant caused quite a stir in the catering industry at that time, laying a solid foundation for the famous "Shanxian mutton soup" in the future. Shanxian mutton soup, which has a history of nearly 200 years, has been listed as a famous recipe in China with its unique style of "white as milk, blending water and oil, pure texture, fresh but not smelly, fragrant but not greasy, rotten but not sticky". Only Shanxian mutton soup was included in the spectrum. It is called "the first soup in China" by Chinese people. There is a folk saying: "If you come to Heze Peony City and don't try the mutton soup in Shan County, it is equivalent to coming to Heze for nothing!" Shanxian mutton soup is known as the soup of Chinese cuisine! Shanxian mutton soup has a history of thousands of years. At the end of primitive society, Shun's teacher Shan Juan (also good at writing) and his tribe lived in Shan County, and they lived a life of farming, fishing and herding. At that time, the livestock were mainly green goats, and the way of eating sheep evolved from barbecue to eating meat and drinking soup. Shanxian mutton soup has been improved for thousands of years, and its production technology is becoming more and more perfect. Its official listing has been facing the market for nearly a hundred years. According to the local Shan County Scenery and the new edition of Shan County Records: "1At the beginning of 807, three people from Shan County, Xu Guili, Cao Xisheng and Zhu Kexun, opened the Sanyihe Soup Restaurant, and the latter three separated. Because of Xu Guili's elaborate production and continuous improvement, it swept the city for a time and gained the upper hand in the competition. It is well-known and is recognized as the authentic mutton soup in Shan County. After JOE accumulated a lot of capital, he began to turn to other industries, so he failed to create a formal brand.

2. Jiangsu Suzhou mutton soup collection: mutton collection has a long history. With its unique cooking skills, it has been cooked into various mutton dishes. Because of its delicious meat, delicious soup and rich nutrition, it is deeply loved by people. It is a good tonic in winter and has become a traditional Suzhou local flavor snack, which is popular in the south of the Yangtze River. After the reform and opening up, mutton collection has been developing continuously. The number of operators has increased dramatically, and the regional scope has been continuously expanded, covering Suzhou (including six counties and one city), Wuxi, Changzhou, Shanghai, Jiaxing, Zhejiang and other large and medium-sized cities and township fairs. The original 18 administrative village in the town has people running this industry in other places, among which Xing 'an, Prosperity, Agriculture and Forestry, Sheguang, Hefeng, Jianfeng and Shengjian villages in the southwest are the most prosperous. In the 1980s, there were more than 1500 people who went out to open mutton shops in the whole town, and in the 1990s, it increased to about 2000-3000 people. As early as the Ming and Qing dynasties, farmers at the foot of the dome had a sideline in killing sheep, burning mutton and selling mutton. Generally speaking, they are sold by consignment or stall. It was only in the late Qing Dynasty that shops and workshops (commonly known as "raising sheep") were opened in Suzhou. In the 22nd year of Guangxu, Zhou Xiaoquan of Zhoujiachang, a market town, opened the first "Shengmeizhai" mutton shop in Suzhou Vinegar Square Bridge. After announcing the unification, he opened shops and workshops in Duting Bridge and Suzhou Vinegar Square respectively. During the Republic of China, the number of sheep raised in cities increased gradually, and many famous shops such as "Laoyuanxing" and "Xindehe" were opened in Daoqian Street, Yadanqiao and Loumentong. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the first mutton shop in the town, Shengli Mutton Shop, also opened in Shanrenqiao. At the beginning of the founding of the people's Republic, it was still operated by individuals. After the commune, organized by the brigade, more than 10 collective mutton shops were opened in the bustling business districts of Suzhou, such as Shilu, Gao Qiao, Eunuch Lane, Dongchongcheng and Gongxiang. At the turn of autumn and winter, mutton shops inside and outside the ancient city opened one after another. Shops are generally set up along the street without ostentation and extravagance. The cooker stood in the storefront, and the aroma spread to the neighborhood, attracting many diners. "No fresh mutton soup, no brass cymbals" has become everyone's praise, and it has a good reputation so far.

3. Jianyang mutton soup: Jianyang mutton soup is a special food in Jianyang, Chengdu. Its soup is fresh, beautiful and has a pleasant aroma. It is an excellent soup for invigorating qi and preserving health. The uniqueness of Jianyang mutton soup mainly benefits from the continuous improvement of Jianyang goat breeds and the continuous innovation of mutton soup production technology. Jianyang big-eared sheep is a cross between American nubi sheep and Jianyang local sheep. The unique variety advantages and good natural living conditions have created its unique fresh and tender meat quality. Jianyang mutton soup with this as the main raw material, coupled with the cooking skills of Jianyang mutton soup listed as Chengdu's intangible cultural heritage, is delicious and fragrant, which makes people full of praise and linger. It is precisely because of this unique taste that Jianyang mutton soup stood out among tens of thousands of competing dishes in 2008, and was selected as one of the 30 Olympic healthy foods in China, becoming the only soup with mutton as the main ingredient. The uniqueness of Jianyang mutton soup benefits from Jianyang goat. Jianyang's local goat, commonly known as "Hogda sheep", is short, but extremely vigorous. At the beginning of last century, Ms. Song Meiling introduced Nubian sheep from the United States, then abandoned it and exiled it to Longquan Mountain, and crossed it with Jianyang local sheep to form "Jianyang big-eared sheep" which combines the advantages of Chinese and foreign breeds. Besides the provenance advantage, the living environment of Jianyang goat is also unique to Jianyang. Some experts said interestingly: Jianyang goats "eat Chinese herbal medicine (green mountain grass) and drink mineral water (water from Longquan Lake and Sancha Lake)". Jianyang mutton soup takes goats living in this unique condition as the main raw material and tastes delicious. Although there are authentic Jianyang mutton soup shops inside and outside Sichuan, and even the boss is from Jianyang, the mutton soup you can eat is not necessarily "authentic". The reason lies in whether the "sheep" is a local sheep in Jianyang. Only authentic sheep can taste "Jianyang mutton soup", so there are still countless people driving to Jianyang to taste the authentic "Jianyang mutton soup" every year in Chengdu and other places, especially in winter. As a veteran foodie, only when you have eaten in Jianyang can you really eat authentic Jianyang mutton soup.
