Dishes
Five Blessings ArriveFive Blessings is a dish featuring five different ingredients: shrimp, ham, mushrooms, egg, and green peas. After blanching or stir-frying, they are arranged neatly in a plate to form five distinct colors, symbolizing the Five Blessings (longevity, wealth, health, virtue, and a good end). Ingredients are prepared separately and layered in order, then steamed or lightly stir-fried to set.
Pearl MeatballsA Chinese dish made of minced pork and shrimp, shaped into pearl-like balls and steamed for a tender, delicate texture.
Prosperity and LongevityFúshòu Shuāngquán is a dish made primarily of shrimp and eggs, symbolizing 'fortune' and 'longevity'. Shrimp and egg mixture is seasoned and steamed, resulting in a tender, nutritious dish.
Beef燕 (Meat燕)Rouyan is made by mashing pork tenderloin into paste, mixing with starch and egg white, then shaping it into swallow-like forms using a special tool. The paste is wrapped around bamboo skewers, steamed, and removed to create a delicate, chewy meat product.
Fish BallsFish balls are spherical foods made primarily from fish meat, processed through fine cutting, stirring, and shaping techniques. To prepare them, fresh fish meat is selected, deboned, cut into small pieces, then mashed with the back of a knife to form fish paste. Appropriate amounts of starch, egg white, salt, and other seasonings are added and mixed evenly. Finally, the mixture is shaped by hand or tools into small balls and boiled in hot water until cooked through.
