Squirrel-shaped Mandarin FishSquirrel-shaped mandarin fish is made primarily from mandarin fish, named for its bright red color and shape resembling a squirrel after cooking. The fish is deboned, scored with diagonal cuts, marinated, then deep-fried until golden and crispy. A sweet and sour sauce made from sugar and vinegar is then prepared and poured over the fish, creating a vibrant appearance and a squirrel-like造型.
Osmanthus and Gorgon Fruit CheeseOsmanthus and Gorgon Fruit Cheese is a Chinese dessert. Main ingredients include fresh or dried gorgon fruit (fox nuts), milk or light cream, sugar, and dried osmanthus flowers. The basic method involves soaking or cooking the gorgon fruit until soft. Milk and sugar are heated, then a gelling agent like gelatin or agar is added. The cooked gorgon fruit and dried osmanthus are mixed in, poured into molds, and refrigerated until set. The result is a creamy white jelly with evenly distributed gorgon fruit pieces and osmanthus flowers, offering a smooth texture with milky and floral osmanthus aromas.
