Braised Quail EggsPreserved quail eggs are a traditional dish primarily made with quail eggs. The preparation involves boiling the quail eggs, peeling them, and then soaking them in a seasoned brine made from soy sauce and various spices until fully flavored. After preservation, the quail eggs develop a deep color and rich, savory taste.
Marinated EggXiao Lu Dan is a dish made primarily with eggs. Hard-boiled eggs are peeled and slowly simmered in a seasoned sauce, allowing them to absorb the rich flavors. The sauce is typically made from soy sauce, sugar, spices like star anise, cinnamon, and Sichuan pepper, and water.
Mixed DumplingsDan dan wonton is a cold dish made by mixing cooked wontons with scallions, cilantro, soy sauce, vinegar, and chili oil. The wontons are typically filled with pork or shrimp and either hand-made or machine-made, then cooled in cold water before being mixed with the dressing.
