Sweet and sour pork is an appetizer with good color, aroma and taste. Choose pork tenderloin with fascia, the meat is tender and not too dry or fat. It is not like eating in a restaurant, which is like opening a blind box. Sometimes the meat is old and stuck in your teeth, and sometimes it is greasy and hard to swallow. You can control the ingredients when you make it yourself. The fascia locks in moisture. After frying, it is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The sweet and sour sauce covers each piece of meat, making it safe and enjoyable to eat. Deliciousness is so simple...
Black seaweed wrapped around white rice, topped with pink, tender Arctic sweet shrimp. Their tails were a vibrant red, as if they'd just jumped out of the water. Placed on the sushi, they looked like a blanket of vibrant red, a breathtakingly fresh quilt covering the rice. Sandwiched between the shrimp and rice, the cheese slices were gleaming with a milky aroma. Inside, tucked away in intestines and crab sticks, the meaty aroma was enough to make your mouth water! The carnivore in my family was so enchanted by the sight of this plate of sushi that he rushed over in two steps. The first bite revealed the crisp seaweed and soft rice, followed by the freshness of the Arctic sweet shrimp, the fragrance of the intestines, and the springiness of the crab sticks. The cheese still sizzled with a milky aroma, and the sweet and sour Thousand Island dressing and mayonnaise accentuated the meaty flavor. The sushi was so fresh, fragrant, and satisfying that I couldn't stop. Look at that guy, his chopsticks seem to have legs, he puts one bite after another into his mouth, and in the blink of an eye, half of the plate is gone, and he is still mumbling, "the shrimps are so fresh" and "the cheese and meat are so delicious together", and finally he picks up the plate and puts it into his mouth, the whole plate is gone in the blink of an eye, and after finishing it, he licks his fingers with satisfaction and shouts, "I'll make another plate tomorrow!"
