Sichuan and Chongqing mixed rice noodle steamed banquet

When you eat steamed pork with rice flour outside, it's either just steamed pork or just steamed pork ribs with rice flour. It's unlike making it at home, where you can add whatever you want! My portion includes steamed pork with rice flour, pork ribs, and pork belly. The pork belly's soft, glutinous skin, coated in rice flour, melts in your mouth. For a savory bite, try the pork ribs, where the spiciness of the bones is infused with the flavor of spices. For a leaner dish, try the pork belly, which is firm, flavorful, and not too dry. It perfectly captures all the flavors. And since it's homemade, the seasoning is generous, and the flavor comes purely from the ingredients and the care put into making it. If you like spicy food, add chili powder for a satisfying flavor. Every bite is satisfying, and it's much more satisfying than the monotonous portions you get out there! Speaking of Sichuan and Chongqing steamed pork with rice flour, it's a favorite dish of the locals. When dining at a restaurant in Sichuan and Chongqing, the first thing you'll hear as you enter is, "Boss, give me some steamed pork with rice flour. I want the delicious kind!"

Passion Fruit and Pineapple Sauce Spare Ribs

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!
