preserved bean jelly
I remember when I was a child, every family in the yard would cook this dish every year during the twelfth lunar month. I used the pork, stewed meat, and the meat skins left over from making meatballs, served with green beans and soybeans, dried beans and carrots. You can also put some potatoes and cabbage cakes. They were all some of the family dishes that were used to make the winter. Boil a pot of these wax beans, place them in the large water tank in the yard, and let them solidify naturally. Winter at that time also felt colder than now, so it could be kept for a long time. When eating, cut off a piece and pour it with the sauce mixed with vinegar, garlic and sesame oil. In those times of material scarcity, it was really an indispensable New Year dish during the New Year. The meat skin I used today was blanched with water in advance, washed and processed.
