Dishes
OctopusOctopus is a dish primarily made with octopus as the main ingredient. After cleaning, it is usually blanched or boiled, then stir-fried or mixed cold with seasonings according to taste. Common cooking methods include stir-frying, braising in brown sauce, or marinating, often combined with辅料 such as scallions, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers.
ScallopScallops are a type of bivalve seafood that are typically grilled with seasonings such as garlic and olive oil. Scallops have a delicious flavor and a tender texture, making them a favorite dish for seafood lovers.
Water SnailSnail is a dish primarily made from snail animals, typically using freshwater snails. After cleaning, the internal organs are removed and the snails are blanched in hot water to remove any fishy odor. During cooking, they can be stir-fried with spices such as chili, ginger, garlic, and doubanjiang (fermented broad bean paste), or stewed together with meat and vegetables to absorb flavor.
Lamb SkewersLamb skewers are made by cutting fresh, tender lamb into chunks, threading them onto bamboo or metal skewers, and marinating before grilling directly over charcoal. During grilling, the lamb's fat drips onto the fire, creating smoke that熏 (smokes) the meat, resulting in a crispy exterior and tender interior with rich aroma.
Lamb KidneysLamb kidneys are made primarily from fresh lamb kidneys, which are cleaned, sliced, and marinated before being cooked by grilling or stir-frying. They have a golden appearance, tender meat, and are nutritionally rich.
Sheep testiclesSheep testicles are cleaned and cooked by blanching, boiling, or stir-frying, often with scallions, ginger, and garlic. The texture is tender yet chewy, with a rich flavor.
Sheep penis羊鞭, or the reproductive organ of a sheep, is typically used as a tonic ingredient in Chinese cuisine. Before cooking, it must be thoroughly cleaned to remove any odor. Common preparation methods include stewing and grilling, often enhanced with medicinal herbs or spices to improve flavor.
