Four years of living in Nanjing has kept my taste buds from the memory of dried plums. From the buns filled with dried plums for breakfast to the roasted pork with dried plums for lunch, I will never forget them. Especially the prunes are paired with pork belly with plenty of oil and water, and the fragrant lotus leaf cake on top is really missed by a person in the severe cold area.

Meigancai is a famous traditional dish commonly seen in Cixi, Yuyao, and Shaoxing. It has oily yellow and black, scented aroma, relieves heat, cleans the internal organs, eliminates food accumulation, cures coughs, and promotes appetite.

8. Add water/dashi (must be wiped with meat on the surface of the water), boil over high heat and simmer for 45 minutes at medium to low heat, then turn off the heat and simmer for 60 minutes.

Intermittent heating can make the stew crispy and not rotten.

The amount of rock candy is based on the sweet taste of Huaiyang cuisine. If you don't like it so sweet, you can adjust it yourself.
