Dishes
Frozen TofuFrozen tofu is made by freezing fresh tofu, which develops a honeycomb-like structure inside with many pores and good elasticity. It can be cooked with various ingredients, offering a rich and diverse texture.
SpamSpam is a canned food product made primarily from pork, processed through grinding, seasoning, and steaming. It has a fine texture and delicious taste, commonly used as an ingredient in hot pot, barbecue dishes, or eaten directly sliced.
Hot Lamb SoupHot lamb is a dish primarily made with fresh lamb meat, typically using lamb leg or lamb belly. The meat is cut into pieces, blanched in water to remove blood foam, then stewed with ingredients such as ginger slices and scallions to ensure the lamb is thoroughly cooked while remaining tender. A small amount of cooking wine can be added during cooking to remove fishy odor, and finally garnished with chopped scallions or cilantro.
Beef TripeBeef tripe is made from fresh beef tripe, which is cleaned, sliced, and quickly stir-fried with seasonings such as garlic and ginger. The dish features distinct tripe slices with a tender yet slightly chewy texture.
Secret SauceThe secret sauce is made by mixing various spices, seasonings, and basic ingredients. Common ingredients include doubanjiang, garlic paste, ginger paste, green onions, soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, chili oil, and sesame. The ingredients are mixed in proportion and then simmered or fermented to blend the flavors evenly.
Sheep HeartLamb heart is the heart of a sheep, cleaned and sliced or cooked whole. Commonly prepared by stir-frying, stewing, or grilling, often with scallions, ginger, and garlic to reduce odor and enhance flavor.
Goat Spine Hot Pot羊蝎子 is a dish primarily made from lamb spine bones, named for its resemblance to a scorpion. The preparation typically involves blanching the lamb bones to remove any odor, then adding various spices and seasonings such as green onions, ginger, garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, and soy sauce, followed by slow stewing until the meat becomes tender and the marrow becomes richly fragrant.
Lean and fatty meatFatty and lean meat is a dish primarily made with pork belly, where the pork is sliced into thick pieces or chunks, clearly showing layers of fat and lean meat. The meat is processed through blanching, stir-frying, or stewing, causing the fat to melt and release oil while keeping the lean parts tender and juicy. Seasonings such as soy sauce, sugar, and cooking wine can be added according to taste.
Scallion Oil FlatbreadScallion oil cake is made primarily from flour, with ingredients such as scallions and lard. To prepare it, mix flour with water to form a dough, let it rest and rise, then roll it into a thin sheet. Spread lard and chopped scallions on the surface, roll it into a cylindrical shape, flatten it, and finally pan-fry or bake until golden and crispy.
Chinese pea shootsBean sprouts is a vegetable dish primarily made with tender bean sprouts, typically blanched or stir-fried to retain their crisp texture. Add garlic or ginger for aroma, and optionally combine with other vegetables or meat.
Duck BloodDuck blood dishes use fresh duck blood as the main ingredient, carefully prepared through skilled cooking. Typically, the duck blood is cut into pieces and cooked together with seasonings and ingredients such as scallions, ginger, and garlic to maintain its tender texture. Cooking methods may include boiling, stewing, or stir-frying, allowing the duck blood to fully absorb the flavors of the seasonings.
Yellow throatYellow throat is made from the large blood vessels of livestock such as pigs and cattle, processed by cleaning and slicing to reveal a golden-yellow appearance. It is commonly used in hot pot or stir-frying, offering a tender texture and rich nutritional value.
