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.
Head FishA Chinese dish made with fresh head fish, seasoned and cooked by frying or braising, resulting in tender meat and rich flavor.
PotatoPotatoes are peeled and cut into cubes or slices, then cooked by frying, boiling, steaming, or stir-frying. Common preparations include potato shreds, braised potatoes with meat, mashed potatoes, and french fries. The main ingredient is potatoes, with optional seasonings such as scallions, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers added according to taste.
Wide Rice NoodlesWide rice noodles, a broad ribbon-shaped vermicelli made from sweet potato starch. Typically, the wide rice noodles are soaked in warm water to soften them before being stir-fried or added to soups with meats and vegetables. They have a smooth, tender texture that absorbs broth well, enhancing the overall flavor.
Dried Green BeansDry beans are made by sun-drying fresh beans until they lose moisture, resulting in a deep green or yellow-brown color. Before cooking, they must be soaked in water to restore their softness. They are commonly stewed with meat, absorbing the meat juices to become flavorful, and can also be stir-fried or used in soups.
BeefBeef dishes are primarily made with high-quality beef and prepared using cooking methods such as stewing, boiling, and stir-frying. During the cooking process, seasonings like scallions, ginger, garlic, chili peppers, and Sichuan peppercorns can be added according to taste, allowing the beef to fully absorb the aromas of the seasonings for a tender and juicy texture.
Frog LegsFrogs legs, known for their tender texture and delicious flavor, are the main ingredient in this dish. Typically stir-fried with chili peppers, scallions, ginger, and garlic, the frogs' legs are carefully cooked to achieve a tender and richly flavored result—making it a nutritious and delightful delicacy.

First clean the turtle thoroughly, cut it into pieces, and marinate it with ingredients such as ginger slices and green onion segments. Then, sauté the spices in oil, add the turtle pieces, stir-fry, and add water to simmer slowly until the meat is tender and the broth is rich.
Old TofuOld tofu is a traditional dish primarily made from tofu, which becomes soft and tender after stewing, fully absorbing the broth. It is typically prepared with meat or vegetables to enhance texture and nutrition, then reduced to concentrate the flavors.
Chicken KidneysChicken kidneys refer to the kidney part of chickens, typically cleaned and marinated with scallions, ginger, garlic, and cooking wine before stir-frying or stewing to remove fishy odor and enhance flavor.
