Dishes
Seasoning MixXiaoliao is a flavorful condiment made by finely mixing various spices and seasonings, primarily including minced garlic, minced ginger, chopped chili, and Sichuan pepper powder. It is prepared through simple stir-frying or marinating to enhance the depth and taste of dishes.
Jellyfish SaladA refreshing salad made from processed jellyfish, typically served cold with vinegar, garlic, and herbs for a crisp, savory taste.
Bamboo Mushroom Shrimp BallsBamboo fungus shrimp paste is a dish featuring fresh shrimp paste made from minced shrimp as the main ingredient, paired with dried bamboo fungus. The shrimp paste is prepared by chopping fresh shrimp and mixing in seasonings until it becomes firm and elastic. The bamboo fungus must be soaked beforehand to remove impurities. Both ingredients are then steamed or boiled together, resulting in tender, chewy shrimp paste and crisp, sweet bamboo fungus, creating a rich and layered texture.
Vegetarian BuffetVegetable buffet features various vegetables as main ingredients, including stir-fried greens, cucumber salad, stir-fried green beans, mushroom stewed cabbage, and steamed pumpkin. Cooking methods focus on stir-frying, cold mixing, and stewing to preserve natural flavors.
