Dishes
Northeast Frozen PearNortheast frozen pear is a traditional food made by long-term freezing fresh pears. Before eating, thaw them—the flesh becomes soft and chewy with a natural sweetness and slight acidity. The process is simple, relying on low temperatures to crystallize internal water, changing the texture.
Northeast GooseNortheast goose is a dish featuring a whole goose, typically using fatty goose meat. After blanching, it's stewed with scallions, ginger, star anise, cinnamon, and other spices until tender and flavorful. Some regions add soy sauce, sugar, and cooking wine for richer taste.
Frozen PearFrozen pear, primarily made from autumn pear or flower-covered pear, is created through repeated freezing and thawing. First, wash the pears and place them in the freezer until they turn black. Then, remove them and thaw by soaking in cold water. Once a layer of ice forms on the surface of the pear, peel it off and suck out the juice to enjoy.
Wide Rice NoodlesWide rice noodles, a broad ribbon-shaped vermicelli made from sweet potato starch. Typically, the wide rice noodles are soaked in warm water to soften them before being stir-fried or added to soups with meats and vegetables.
