Peking Roasted Duck<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Peking duck (\u5317\u4eac\u70e4\u9e2d B\u011bij\u012bng k\u01ceoy\u0101) is a famous dish from Beijing, enjoying world fame, and considered as one of China national dishes. Peking duck is savored for its thin and crispy skin. Sliced Peking duck is often eaten with pancakes, sweet bean sauce, or soy sauce with mashed garlic. It is a must-taste dish in Beijing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n As \u201cthe first dish to taste in China\u201d, Beijing Roast Duck used to be a royal dish in medieval China. It has been a \u201cnational dish of diplomacy\u201d since the 1970s, when it was first used for the reception of foreign guests by Premier Zhou Enlai (the first Premier of the People’s Republic of China). It is highly praised by heads of state, government officials, and domestic and foreign tourists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hot Pot<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Hot pot, or hotpot (\u706b\u9505 hu\u01d2gu\u014d), is one of the most popular dishes in China, especially in Sichuan Province or Chongqing. People cook in and eat from a simmering pot of soup stock (broth) on a gas\/induction hob in the middle of the dining table with foodstuffs and condiments around the pot. People can add and cook whatever they like in the broth. The secret of whether a hot pot is good or not lies in the broth, which all the meat slices and vegetables take their flavor from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chinese people are very fond of hot pot. In the past hot pot used to be favored only in winter, but nowadays hot pot has been appearing on tables all year round. It is a great way to socialize with friends and relatives. People gather around the pot to eat while chatting, eating, drinking, and having fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Xiaolongbao<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Xi\u01ceol\u00f3ngb\u0101o (\u5c0f\u7b3c\u5305 \u2018small basket buns\u2019) are a kind of baozi (Chinese steamed bun). They are popular in Jiangsu and Shanghai. Xiaolongbao are traditionally cooked in a small bamboo basket, which gives them their name. The most common xiaolongbao filling is pork.

Or you can use a straw to suck the soup then eat the fillings and dough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wonton Soup<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Wonton Soup<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wontons (\u9984\u7096 h\u00fand\u00f9n) are a kind of Chinese dumpling. Different from jiaozi, wontons have less filling and are wrapped in much thinner dough wrappers. The shapes of wontons can be different depending on how they\u2019re made. Some of them look like silver ingots, making them an auspicious \u2018wealth-invoking\u2019 dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Wonton fillings are most often minced pork or diced shrimp. Wontons are commonly boiled and served in a soup (broth), but sometimes deep-fried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Rui Gu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" With a long history, unique features, numerous styles, and exquisite cooking, Chinese cuisine is one of the important constituent parts of Chinese culture.
