Dishes
Native ChickenFree-range local rooster, prepared by boiling or braising in clear water. Main ingredients include the chicken and seasonings like ginger, scallions, and cooking wine. Cooking carefully controls heat to keep the meat tender.
Century Egg TofuPidan tofu is a traditional dish made primarily from century eggs and soft tofu. The preparation is simple: chop the century eggs and mix them with the soft tofu, then season with scallions, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, and other seasonings, mixing well.
Fresh Pork RibsFresh pork ribs are selected, soaked in water to remove blood, then marinated with cooking wine and ginger to eliminate odor, followed by blanching. They can be stewed, braised, or steamed to achieve tender meat that easily separates from the bone while preserving original flavor.
