QUESTION:
It seems almost impossible when traveling in
China to sample the whole range of amazing cuisine,
food and dishes available. No matter how hard
you try there will always be something that
you missed out on.
An interesting dish to try comes from one of
China's best-known cuisines - Sichuan or Szechuan
cuisine.
The dish's name comes from the fact that the
meat is first boiled, and then stir-fried, the
end result being both colorful and spicy. Served
with green and red peppers (Sichuan cuisine
is well known for its spicy heat!), and the
meat is flavored with hoisin sauce and salted
black beans.
What is the name of this amazing dish?
A. Pork with Peppers;
B. Twice-cooked Pork;
C. Sichuan Pork;
D. Wow! - That's Hot Pork.
ANSWERS:
And the winner is... B! Twice Cooked
Pork.
This is an authentic Sichuan dish, so much
so that it is said if you go to a restaurant
featuring authentic cuisine and they do not
serve this dish, you should leave.
The Chinese name for Twice Cooked Pork is Hui
Guo Rou.
