Dishes
Pork BellyPork belly is a cut of meat from the pig's abdomen, characterized by alternating layers of fat and lean meat, which gives it the name 'five-layered' or 'five-striped'. Common cooking methods include braising, stir-frying, or stewing. During cooking, the fat melts, resulting in tender meat with an aromatic flavor.
Sweet Potato BallsSweet potato balls are a snack made primarily from sweet potatoes. The preparation involves washing, peeling, cutting the sweet potatoes into pieces, and steaming them until tender. The cooked sweet potatoes are then mashed, mixed with an appropriate amount of starch to form a dough, shaped into small balls, and deep-fried until golden brown.
Stove Pot ChickenStewed chicken in a clay pot is a dish primarily made with chicken, cooked with various spices and seasonal vegetables. Its distinctive feature lies in the use of a specially designed clay pot that ensures even heating, preserving the tender texture of the chicken. During cooking, flatbread is placed around the edge of the pot and steamed together, resulting in a crispy top and chewy bottom that absorbs the rich broth, creating a deliciously flavorful dish.
Pan-Fried DumplingsPan-fried dumplings made with pork and cabbage, pan-seared until crispy on the bottom, offering a savory and tender bite.
Fish BallsFish meatballs are made from fresh fish meat, minced and mixed with egg white and starch, then shaped by hand or machine into round balls and cooked by boiling or frying. Serve with broth or sauce.
