Dishes
Pork BellyPork belly is a cut of meat from the pig's abdomen, characterized by alternating layers of fat and lean meat, which gives it the name 'five-layered' or 'five-striped'. Common cooking methods include braising, stir-frying, or stewing. During cooking, the fat melts, resulting in tender meat with an aromatic flavor.
Stove Pot ChickenStewed chicken in a clay pot is a dish primarily made with chicken, cooked with various spices and seasonal vegetables. Its distinctive feature lies in the use of a specially designed clay pot that ensures even heating, preserving the tender texture of the chicken. During cooking, flatbread is placed around the edge of the pot and steamed together, resulting in a crispy top and chewy bottom that absorbs the rich broth, creating a deliciously flavorful dish.
Pork RibsPork ribs are part of a pig's spine, typically including meat and bones. To prepare them, rinse the ribs and blanch them to remove any odor, then cook using methods such as stewing, boiling, roasting, or frying. Common seasonings like soy sauce, cooking wine, and ginger slices are added to enhance flavor.
White RadishThis dish features radish as the main ingredient, prepared using simple cooking techniques such as stewing or stir-frying to preserve its natural flavor. The crisp texture and subtle sweetness of the radish are perfectly maintained, making it a healthy and beloved home-style meal.
Pan-fried Dumpling PancakePotstickers are traditional Chinese dumplings made by wrapping pork and cabbage in a flour-based dough, shaped into a half-moon, then pan-fried until the bottom is golden and crispy, with a juicy, tender filling.
Fish HeadFish head is primarily made from fresh fish heads, typically cleaned and then stewed or pan-fried with ingredients such as ginger slices and scallions. It can be paired with accompaniments like tofu, Chinese cabbage, and mushrooms to create soups or stir-fried dishes.
