Dishes
Classic Eight Treasure PorridgeAncient-style Eight Treasure Porridge is a traditional Chinese rice porridge made from eight ingredients: glutinous rice, red beans, mung beans, peanuts, red dates, lotus seeds, lily bulbs, and longan fruit. Each ingredient is carefully selected and prepared, then slowly simmered together to create a richly textured and nutritionally balanced dish.

The main method involves wrapping seasoned glutinous rice, shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoot dices, carrots, and other fillings in tofu skin, rolling it into a strip, steaming to set the shape, and then pan-frying or deep-frying until the surface is golden and crispy. The finished product has a fragrant, crispy outer skin and a soft, glutinous filling, offering rich layers of texture. It is a classic traditional vegetarian dish.
