A small bowl of pork trotter with ginger warms the body and dispels wind, especially during autumn and winter—after all, putting on weight in autumn helps protect against the cold in winter! This delicious pork trotter with ginger is quite delicate to prepare. If preparing for someone confinement, start soaking the ginger two weeks in advance, bringing it to a boil daily and then turning it off. Soak for at least a week to fully unleash the ginger's aroma. My week-long pot of pork trotter with ginger is simply enticing: the trotter is a translucent brown, tender yet slightly chewy, and the flavor grows with every bite. The egg has a deep brown outer shell, but when cut open, the yolk is a firm orange-yellow, and even the core is imbued with the flavor of ginger vinegar. The ginger is crumb-free and not as spicy as those sold outside; it's refreshing and refreshing. The broth is just right—not sour, bitter, sweet, or thick—and even more flavorful than a carefully prepared broth. While Guangdong street vendors sell pig's trotters with plenty of ginger, a small piece of ginger, an egg, and a pig's trotter costs at least 20 yuan, and the flavor isn't quite there. It's nothing like home-cooked pork trotters, which are both affordable and flavorful, with every bite filled with heartfelt warmth. Speaking of which, in the month after my "divine beast" was born, we used a total of 150 pig's trotters! I just wanted to nourish my family, but the aroma filled the hallway. As if they had "smell radar," the neighbors would come to my house every day to "freeload" and take their meals away, treating me like a "makeshift pig's trotter delivery station." Everyone said my pig's trotters were so delicious they almost wanted to take the pot home with them!

The moment these braised pork ribs are placed on the table, the aroma is absolutely divine, far surpassing those restaurants that claim to have "secret family recipes"!

The glossy reddish-brown sauce is incredibly tempting, each piece coated in a rich, flavorful broth. One bite, and the aroma of meat mingles with the fragrance of spices—pure bliss! Eating a piece like this outside would easily break the bank, leaving you no room to indulge. But making it at home, for the same price, you can buy several pounds of bones, stew a full pot, and enjoy it to your heart's content. You can even use the leftover broth to stew noodles and cabbage—the value is unbeatable. This down-to-earth delicacy is universally praised; you'll crave it after just one bite, making even the restaurant's "secret recipes" pale in comparison!

"On the left is the non-spicy seafood sauce section: the aroma of freshness hits your nose as soon as it's served. The fish is soaked in the sweet fragrance of seafood sauce, so tender it trembles when you pick it up with chopsticks. My child immediately started gnawing on the fish belly, even chewing the lotus root slices soaked in the sauce with a satisfying crunch, exclaiming, 'Mom, this is even better than what you get at restaurants!'—the seafood sauce gives the vegetables a subtle sweetness, light yet not bland at all. My child even ate rice faster than usual. On the right is our spicy dry pot section: the aroma of the dry pot ingredients fills the kitchen as soon as the sauce is poured on. The fish skin is grilled until slightly crispy, bursting with juice with every bite when coated in spicy oil. Even the celery stalks are infused with the spicy fragrance, becoming more flavorful the longer they cook. In the end, even the last bit of sauce at the bottom of the pot..." It had to be poured over rice and polished clean. The moment this pot of fish was served, the kids on the left exclaimed, "Mmm, this is so tender!" while we on the right were shouting, "Wow, this is so spicy and delicious!" The divider clearly separated the flavors; some were tender, some were fragrant. Even the usually picky kid devoured the lotus root slices. We used a special grill pan for fish that can be heated directly. It bubbled and steamed as soon as the flame was turned on, making it incredibly satisfying to eat and cook at the same time—the kids on the left were plucking at the tender, seafood-flavored fish, while we on the right were enjoying the juicy, spicy pieces of fish, taking a sip of wine, the spicy aroma mingling with the wine's fragrance, enveloped in the warmth—it was so addictive! If you don't have this special pan, a small alcohol stove with a regular grill pan works just as well, filling the air with a smoky, hearty atmosphere. Life is just too good!
I went to the provincial capital to find food before, and a dish of braised duck with ginger oil made me "dizzy"! The price of 150 yuan per case is only a few pieces of meat, which made me, a meat lover, say "my wallet is crying". After returning, I immediately started the "food reproduction plan". After many experiments, I finally reproduced this delicacy! The improved version reduces the amount of oil used, but retains 95% of the original flavor, successfully turning this restaurant's hard dish into a home-cooked delicacy~ The essence of braised duck with ginger oil is to use a large amount of ginger slices to stir-fry the mellow ginger oil, which can not only completely remove the fishy smell, but also stimulate the unique aroma. The duck meat is slowly stewed with ginger oil. The skin is slightly chewy, but the inside is tender and juicy. Every fiber is full of salty, fragrant and slightly sweet thick sauce. The moment the lid is opened, the rich fragrance hits you in the face. Eating it with white rice is simply the ultimate enjoyment of the taste buds! Come and see my reproduction results (compare pictures at the end of the article)
