Dishes
Spicy Chicken with Chili SauceSpicy chicken is a dish made primarily from chicken, seasoned with chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, scallions, ginger, garlic, and other spices. The chicken is boiled until tender, then shredded and drizzled with a specially prepared spicy and numbing sauce. Finally, it is garnished with crushed peanuts and cilantro.
Shredded CabbageShredded cabbage is a home-style dish primarily made with cabbage. The preparation involves tearing the cabbage by hand into pieces, then stir-frying it quickly with garlic, chili, and other seasonings at high heat to preserve its crisp and tender texture.
Glass NoodlesGlass noodles are thin, elongated food products primarily made from mung bean, sweet potato, or potato starch, and are produced by steaming and sun-drying. During preparation, the starch slurry is heated to solidify, then cut into fine strands and dried. Before eating, they must be soaked in warm water and can be stir-fried, boiled, mixed, or used in soups, often paired with meats, vegetables, and seafood.
Steamed Pork Ribs with Glutinous RiceStuffed glutinous rice with pork ribs is a Chinese dish primarily made with pork ribs and glutinous rice. The pork ribs are marinated and then mixed with soaked glutinous rice before being steamed in a steamer. During preparation, seasonings such as soy sauce, cooking wine, and ginger slices are typically added to flavor the ribs, allowing the glutinous rice to absorb the meaty aroma and become soft and sticky.
Braised Pork BellyBraised pork belly is a classic Chinese dish made with pork belly as the main ingredient. After stir-frying and slow simmering, the meat becomes tender and juicy.
