As soon as these fermented bean curd chicken wings arrive, the aroma hits your nose! The skin is grilled to a gleaming shine, then crispy and tender. The salty aroma of fermented bean curd, combined with the gravy, wafts through your mouth, soaking up the flavor even between the bones.

This "Chicken Thigh Rice" marinates boneless chicken thighs with scallion, ginger, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, cooking wine, sugar and a little oil, then puts them into a pot with washed rice, adds water to cover the rice, and cooks them in one click. The rice absorbs the sauce and chicken aroma, and each grain has a warm, salty and sweet taste. The chicken is tender and juicy; the fragrance of scallion and ginger is looming in the heat, adding layers. The whole thing is done in one pot, saving time and effort, and full of homely flavor, but you need to reserve about half an hour for marinating, and the ratio of water and marinade must be properly controlled to avoid the rice being too wet or the chicken being too salty/slightly dry.

“Soak chicken” is actually a slow-cooking method—using warm water to gently cook the chicken, reducing protein loss and preventing moisture from being drawn out, resulting in a more tender, silky texture.
