This dish, steamed shrimp with garlic paste, is made by simply seasoning the shrimp with salt and garlic paste, and then steaming it in a steamer with boiling water for about five minutes, which perfectly locks in the freshness and elasticity of the shrimp meat.

This dish is quick and healthy, but you need to accurately control the steaming time and oil temperature to avoid the shrimp meat being tough or the garlic paste being burnt and bitter.
Lately, I've been eating too much pasta and really wanted a change. Yunnan rice noodles are like Chongqing hotpot—the flavor is ingrained in the local culture.

Slurping them down, they're soft, chewy, and the sauce's salty, savory, sour, and spicy flavors explode on your tongue. The crisp pickled cabbage cuts through the richness of the minced meat, and then you bite into a poached egg soaked in broth. The layers of sour, spicy, fresh, and fragrant flavors build up, warming you from your tongue to your stomach with every bite. Finally, I've satisfied my craving for Yunnan rice noodles!

This passion fruit and pineapple juice pork ribs dish is a surprising and innovative flavorful creation I encountered while traveling in Nanning. After trying the local passion fruit pork ribs in Nanning, a core passion fruit producing area, I added homemade pineapple juice to elevate the flavor. The golden, translucent passion fruit shells serve as a delicate container, nestling the ribs, smothered in a rich sauce and sprinkled with white sesame seeds. The appearance alone is breathtaking. The sweetness of my homemade pineapple juice blends beautifully with the tartness of the passion fruit, softening the rich sauce flavor of the ribs and allowing the dual fruity notes to spread across the palate. This dish boasts a refreshing tropical fruit flavor over the local original. Bromelain simmers the ribs until they are tender and flavorful, and each bite offers a delicate balance of sweet and sour, salty, and savory, creating a unique flavor experience. Although the price of this dish in the local area is a bit pricey - almost a hundred dollars, once you have tasted it, you will know that it is worth the money. Once you have tasted it, you will never forget it!
