Original Flavor BrothA clear, savory broth made by simmering pork bones, chicken frames, and spices for a pure, natural flavor—ideal for hot pot dishes.
Tendon MeatAnglo is a dish made primarily from long strips of beef taken from the back of the cow, sliced thinly using precise knife skills, and then cooked with specially prepared seasonings. Its meat is tender and flavorful, making it a popular choice for hot pot or barbecue.
Tenderized MeatTender meat is a dish primarily made with pork, using tender cuts such as pork tenderloin or梅花肉 (marbled pork), which are sliced, marinated, and quickly stir-fried. The dish has a bright color and tender, juicy texture.
Dry-Fried Beef Rice NoodlesDry-fried beef rice noodles is a dish made from rice noodles, beef, bean sprouts, and other ingredients. First, slice the beef and marinate it. Cook the rice noodles and set aside. Heat a wok, stir-fry the beef until it changes color, then add the bean sprouts and rice noodles. Season with soy sauce and other seasonings, and quickly stir-fry until well combined.

During the cooking process, seasonings like scallions, ginger, garlic, chili peppers, and Sichuan peppercorns can be added according to taste, allowing the beef to fully absorb the aromas of the seasonings for a tender and juicy texture.
