Dishes
Shredded TofuDry silk is a dish primarily made with tofu skin. The tofu skin is sliced into fine threads, blanched to remove any odor, then simmered in clear broth or water. Ingredients such as shrimp, ham, and mushrooms are added, and the dish is finally seasoned with a small amount of soy sauce and sesame oil.
Noodles with Rolled DoughMianpi is a cold dish made primarily from flour. The flour is mixed with water to form a dough, which is then repeatedly washed to remove the starch, leaving behind gluten. This gluten is then rolled into thin sheets and steamed or boiled until cooked, then cut into strips. When serving, it is mixed with seasonings such as vinegar, chili oil, garlic paste, soy sauce, and cilantro for a refreshing and chewy 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.
