Dishes
Chicken WingsChicken wing midsection, typically marinated and cooked by frying, grilling, or stewing. Main ingredient is chicken wing; seasonings include soy sauce, cooking wine, ginger slices, and green onion segments.
Grilled SausageA grilled sausage is a meat product made primarily from pork, beef, or chicken, which is minced, seasoned, stuffed into casings, and then baked. It has a golden, crispy exterior and tender, juicy interior with an irresistible aroma.
Beef SkewersBeef skewers are made by cutting selected beef into chunks and threading them onto bamboo skewers. After marinating, they are slowly grilled over charcoal until the outside is charred and the inside remains tender and juicy. The meat is delicious on its own but even better when paired with a special sauce.
CornCorn is a common ingredient that can be cooked in various ways, such as boiling, grilling, or stir-frying. When boiled, keeping the husks intact imparts a subtle fragrance to the corn. Grilled corn develops a slightly charred surface, offering a unique smoky flavor. Stir-fried corn is often paired with pine nuts and carrots, creating a colorful dish with rich textures and flavors.
Water SnailSnail is a dish primarily made from snail animals, typically using freshwater snails. After cleaning, the internal organs are removed and the snails are blanched in hot water to remove any fishy odor. During cooking, they can be stir-fried with spices such as chili, ginger, garlic, and doubanjiang (fermented broad bean paste), or stewed together with meat and vegetables to absorb flavor.
Lamb SkewersLamb skewers are made by cutting fresh, tender lamb into chunks, threading them onto bamboo or metal skewers, and marinating before grilling directly over charcoal. During grilling, the lamb's fat drips onto the fire, creating smoke that熏 (smokes) the meat, resulting in a crispy exterior and tender interior with rich aroma.
Enoki MushroomEnoki mushrooms, using fresh enoki mushrooms as the main ingredient, are typically stir-fried or steamed with seasonings such as garlic and chili, preserving their tender texture and nutritional value—a quick and popular home-cooked dish.
Wheat GlutenWheat gluten is a food made primarily from flour. Through steps such as kneading and washing, starch and protein in the flour are separated, resulting in a high-protein product known as wheat gluten. Wheat gluten can be baked, boiled, or stir-fried, with a chewy texture, making it a common ingredient in vegetarian cuisine.
Squid TentaclesSquid tentacles are a dish primarily made from fresh squid tentacles. To prepare, first clean the squid tentacles thoroughly, then cut them into appropriate lengths. Next, stir-fry them with seasonings such as garlic and chili, or grill them until golden and crispy. Finally, add seasoning to taste.
