stir-fried crystal pork with cold melon
The crystal meat is taken from the pig's face. The middle is lean meat, and the inner and outer layers are fat meat. Although it is fat meat, it is vastly different in taste from ordinary fat meat. The latter is soft and greasy when bitten, while the former's fat meat is crisp and crunchy in the mouth, and has a springy taste. Because the fat meat is transparent after frying, it is named: crystal meat.
If you want to buy crystal meat, you have to rush to the morning market to buy it. If you go late, you will be sold out by others.
