Wash the accessories. Garlic whole, green onion cut off, ginger cut into pieces, dried chili cut in the middle, grass fruit cut with a kitchen knife

The lettuce hob is used to cut large pieces. Lettuce is mainly used for the base. If it is cut too thin, it will stew and melt, so the hob must be used to cut large pieces.

Tips:
The main reason for using lettuce as a base is that lettuce will not spoil the taste of pigeon meat, and the aroma of pigeon meat will be blended into the lettuce after being slowly stewed. The taste of lettuce itself will make the lettuce taste more full-bodied. You can add cucumber strips, pigeon meat with the refreshing fragrance of cucumber, which is another feeling. This is the typical Changde bozi dish in Hunan cuisine.
