Dishes
Ginseng Chicken SoupGinseng chicken soup is made with chicken as the main ingredient, along with ginseng, goji berries, and red dates, slow-cooked into a rich broth. Chicken from thighs or whole bird is cut into pieces and simmered with cleaned ginseng, goji berries, and red dates until tender and flavorful.
Braised Chicken CubesStewed chicken cubes with a savory flavor, marinated in soy sauce, cooking wine, and ginger, then slowly simmered with scallions, ginger, and star anise to absorb the rich broth.
Braised Chicken FeetBraised chicken feet, using chicken feet as the main ingredient, are first blanched and then slowly simmered in a braising liquid with spices such as star anise, cassia bark, bay leaves, and Sichuan peppercorns. This allows the chicken feet to fully absorb the rich flavors of the braising sauce, resulting in a soft yet chewy texture.
Braised Duck FeetBraised duck feet seasoned with spices and slow-cooked in a rich broth, resulting in tender, elastic texture and a glossy red color.
Salt-Baked Chicken HeartsSalt-baked chicken hearts is a dish made primarily with chicken hearts, which are marinated and then cooked in a pot with salt. After cleaning, the chicken hearts are marinated with salt, cooking wine, and ginger slices to absorb flavor, then wrapped or layered with coarse salt for baking, keeping the meat tender while absorbing the savory salt aroma.
Salt-Baked Chicken WingsSalt-baked chicken wings are made by marinating chicken wings in salt and spices, then baking them to perfection. The wings are first marinated with salt, ginger slices, and scallions before being cooked in a clay pot or oven, allowing the salt's heat to infuse flavor into the meat.

After preparation, the gizzards are sliced or used whole, marinated with an appropriate amount of salt, spices, and seasonings to absorb flavor, then wrapped in coarse salt and sealed before heating. This method keeps the meat tender while allowing it to absorb a savory, salty aroma.
