Dishes
Tofu Skin KnotsA Chinese dish made by rolling tofu skin into knots and stewing with ingredients like minced meat and mushrooms, resulting in a soft and savory flavor.
Dried Green BeansDry beans are made by sun-drying fresh beans until they lose moisture, resulting in a deep green or yellow-brown color. Before cooking, they must be soaked in water to restore their softness. They are commonly stewed with meat, absorbing the meat juices to become flavorful, and can also be stir-fried or used in soups.
Dried Daylily FlowersDried daylily flowers are a traditional Chinese ingredient made by sun-drying fresh blooms. They are rehydrated before cooking and often stir-fried with meat, eggs, or tofu for a tender, savory dish.
Flower-shaped Pork MeatballsFlower-shaped meatballs are made from pork, formed into balls and scored with a cross on the surface to open like a flower during cooking. Usually boiled or steamed to maintain a tender texture.
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.
Camphor Tree MushroomWood ear mushroom is a type of edible fungus, primarily using fresh or dried wood ear mushrooms, often cooked with meat or vegetables. It is usually soaked, cleaned, and then stir-fried, stewed, or boiled, either alone or with other ingredients.
