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.
Tofu SkinTofu skin, also known as百叶 or bean curd sheet, is a soy-based product made primarily from yellow beans. It has a pale yellow color, a delicate texture, and is as thin as paper. It can be prepared by mixing cold, stir-frying, or used as an ingredient. Commonly paired with vegetables, meat, or seafood in cooking to enhance texture and flavor.
Baby bok choyBaby bok choy is a small type of Chinese cabbage with a fresh and tender texture. Common cooking methods include stir-frying, garlic stir-fry, or simmering in clear soup. To prepare, first wash the baby bok choy thoroughly, then add appropriate seasonings and ingredients according to your chosen method, and stir-fry until soft or simmer until flavorful.
Dried Green BeansDry beans are made by sun-drying fresh beans until they lose moisture, resulting in a deep green or yellow-brown color. Before cooking, they must be soaked in water to restore their softness. They are commonly stewed with meat, absorbing the meat juices to become flavorful, and can also be stir-fried or used in soups.
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.
