People emphasize that the dishes shall be on sale according to seasons. This is especially true of the dishes with pork as material. To cook this dish, you need to choose the streaky pork, wash it clean, boil it in the pot full of clean water with high heat until it becomes tender, then scoop it out, carve the pork surface into a net-like shape with a knife, put it on the the bamboo chopsticks in the pot. Then you should add some pork soup, onion knots, sliced gingers, refined salt, Shaoxing rice wine and Hongqu sauce to it and boil them for about 30 minutes. After that, you add some rock candy and continue to boil it with low heat until it becomes tender. Then you add more rock candy to it and wait for the soup to become sticky, strip the meat away from the rip, remove the onion knots and sliced ginger in the pot, put the meat into the bowl, and pour marinade onto the meat, then steam the bowl capped for about 5 minutes, then take it out and put it on the plate. Meanwhile, you need to stir-fire the pea seedlings with vegetable oil which will be put around the meat in the plate, thus forming an illusion of strawberries which seem to have be pick just now from the trees. It, mixed with three aromas: salty, sweet and sour, is so tender that it seems to melt when you put it in your mouth.
