Dishes
Cold-mixed Tofu NoodlesCold-mixed bamboo skin is a refreshing cold dish with bamboo skin as the main ingredient. First, the bamboo skin is soaked in water until soft, then cut into appropriate lengths. It is then mixed with minced garlic, cilantro, soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil, and other seasonings.
小煲小煲是一种以小砂锅或小铁锅为容器，将主料如肉类、海鲜、蔬菜等与调味料一同炖煮的菜肴。常见食材包括鸡肉、猪肉、豆腐、菌菇、青菜等，通过慢火加热使食材入味，汤汁浓郁。
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.
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.
Mung Bean SproutsMung bean sprouts are vegetables made by sprouting mung beans. The main ingredient is mung beans. After soaking, beans are sprouted in a dark place or with special equipment until they reach a certain length, then harvested and washed clean for eating. They can be served cold, stir-fried, or used as soup ingredients.
