Dishes
Braised EggMarinated eggs are eggs that have been boiled and then soaked in a seasoned sauce made from soy sauce and spices until they are flavorful and well-colored. The key to making them lies in the preparation of the marinade and the timing of the soaking process.
Pork and scallion dumplingsPork and scallion dumplings are made primarily with pork and scallions. The pork is minced into a filling, and the scallions are chopped and mixed with seasonings to form the dumpling filling. The filling is then wrapped in dumpling wrappers and boiled until cooked through, ready to be enjoyed.
Pork and Fennel DumplingsPork and fennel dumplings are made with fresh pork and fennel as the main ingredients. The two are finely chopped and mixed together to form the filling, which is then wrapped into dumpling wrappers. The dumplings are neatly shaped, allowing the filling to be seen through their thin skin. They are typically boiled, and when cooked, the dumpling skins become transparent while the filling remains bright green, releasing a subtle fennel aroma.
Secret-Recipe Meat and Three-Flavor DumplingsSecret recipe meat and three fresh dumplings with pork, shrimp, and chives, hand-mixed and boiled in hot water. Fresh ingredients ensure rich flavor.
Vegetarian Three-Fresh DumplingsVegetarian three-fresh dumplings are filled with cabbage, mushrooms, and tofu. The ingredients are chopped, mixed with seasonings, wrapped in dumpling wrappers, and then boiled or steamed before serving.
Fennel Pork DumplingsFennel pork dumplings are filled with fresh fennel and pork, handcrafted into delicate wrappers. The dumpling skins are thin yet generously filled, allowing the vibrant green fennel and pinkish pork to be subtly visible through the translucent dough. The preparation involves seasoning the filling, rolling the wrappers, shaping the dumplings, and boiling them. Once cooked, the dumplings have a soft, chewy exterior and a savory, flavorful interior.
Sour Soup DumplingsSour soup dumplings are filled with pork or vegetables, hand-rolled and boiled. They are served with a sour soup made from tomatoes, vinegar, and chili peppers. The sour soup is typically enhanced with辅料 such as scallions, ginger, garlic, and cilantro, resulting in a bright red broth that is tangy and appetizing.
Leek and EggLeek and egg is a home-style dish primarily made with leeks and eggs. The preparation is simple: wash and chop the leeks, and beat the eggs separately. Heat oil in a pan, first stir-fry the eggs until set, then add the leeks and stir-fry together. Season with an appropriate amount of salt and cook until the leeks are just tender. Serve hot.
