mandarin duck pot

mandarin duck pot
Dashi Lu is the collective name for hot pot in Cantonese. The bottom of the pot is the most important role in Hong Kong-style hot pot. It is not simply cooked with seasonings. It is generally cooked with broth. Eating the two soups together is called a mandarin duck pot. After boiling the food, it is eaten with soy sauce. Among them, the bottom of the Hong Kong-style hot pot is characterized by numerous ingredients. Fat beef, carp, white eel, geoduck, raw oysters, fish paste, shrimp paste, salmon, as well as foie liver and frosted beef are all popular ingredients.
Hong Kong people pay great attention to the ingredients used in cooking when eating hot pot, especially meat, such as pork slices and beef slices. Pork slices only choose five parts of pork, while beef slices should choose snowflake beef and melt immediately in the mouth. Hong Kong people have rules when eating hot pot: drink soup first and then stew meat; stew beef freshly cooked 90% cooked, and the bottom of the pot has its own flavor.
There are so many types of hot pots in Hong Kong that it can be said that hot pots from all over the world gather together. However, the food most commonly eaten by Hong Kong people is still Guangdong. The hot pot spread to Hong Kong from Macau, of course, has Hong Kong characteristics already spread to Hong Kong.
The most distinctive one is the Drunken Chicken Pot: It uses half to one raw chicken, Huadiao wine and Chinese medicinal materials such as angelica, Beiqi, and wolfberry as the bottom of the pot. It is popular in Hong Kong and Guangdong.
Congee base hot pot: Congee made from rice is used to make hot pot soup base. It originated in Shunde, Guangdong.
Pig bone stew: It originated from Macau, but it has changed differently after spreading to Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Shenzhen's pork bone casserole has developed into soup-type casserole dishes, mainly eating pork bones alongside meat and sucking bone marrow; Hong Kong's eating method is closer to Macau, focusing on the bottom of the pot and ingredients, and has developed into hot pot. The method is to boil the pork bone (pig stick bone) together with other ingredients, and season with white pepper and coarse salt to form a creamy white hot pot bottom.
The one I am distributing now is an ordinary family version of Yuanyang Pot. Some people think that Hong Kong people don't eat spicy food at all. In fact, many Hong Kong people eat spicy food, and some people even enjoy spicy food.

    When frying in the pan, only medium to medium heat is needed to fry at this time (Some people will say that the fish can not be boiled directly in the pan, so the fish will not become old. In fact, this step has many meanings. First, the first step is to remove the fishy smell and enhance the freshness. The second is to fry it over medium to medium heat and then put it into the hot pot to cook it not only will it not get old, but will also make the fish very tender. The tender pan has the aroma of frying, which is very wonderful).
