Originating from Shaoshan, Hunan — the hometown of Chairman Mao — this iconic dish is beloved for its bold, nostalgic flavor. Made with premium pork belly, it’s first blanched, then lightly fried, and finally slow-braised in a blend of soy sauce, rock sugar, and rice wine until the meat is glossy, tender, and deeply flavorful.
Each bite is melt-in-your-mouth soft with a beautiful balance of savory and sweet. A legendary Hunan-style dish that delivers both richness and comfort.
