Dishes
Pork BellyPork belly is a cut of meat from the pig's abdomen, characterized by alternating layers of fat and lean meat, which gives it the name 'five-layered' or 'five-striped'. Common cooking methods include braising, stir-frying, or stewing. During cooking, the fat melts, resulting in tender meat with an aromatic flavor.
Sun-Dried Green BeansSun-dried green beans are a traditional Chinese dried vegetable, made by air-drying fresh beans. They are rehydrated and stir-fried with pork or garlic for a savory, earthy flavor.
Native ChickenFree-range local rooster, prepared by boiling or braising in clear water. Main ingredients include the chicken and seasonings like ginger, scallions, and cooking wine. Cooking carefully controls heat to keep the meat tender.
Stove Pot ChickenStewed chicken in a clay pot is a dish primarily made with chicken, cooked with various spices and seasonal vegetables.
