Health SoupHealth-preserving soup is a nutritious dish focusing on health, primarily made with lean meat, red dates, goji berries, and Chinese yam—various nourishing ingredients. The preparation is simple: place all ingredients in a pot, add water, and simmer slowly for several hours until the broth becomes rich and the ingredients are tender.
One Meat, One Vegetable Cold DishA classic Chinese cold dish featuring one meat and one vegetable component, typically served chilled with a savory dressing.
Dried MushroomDried mushroom is a preserved form of fresh mushrooms, known for its rich aroma and umami flavor. Commonly used in soups, stir-fries, and braised dishes to enhance depth of taste.
Oil-Fried PeanutsOil-fried peanuts are a Chinese snack made primarily from peanuts. Raw peanuts are deep-fried in hot oil until golden and crispy, then drained and lightly salted. Oil temperature must be carefully controlled to ensure a crunchy exterior and tender interior.
Pig's SnoutPig's snout is a dish featuring pig's lips as the main ingredient, typically blanched and deodorized before being stewed or braised with seasonings. Common ingredients include scallions, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and cooking wine for flavor. The finished dish has a bright red color and a soft, elastic texture.
