Features: Ningbo cuisine is a branch with a long history in China's culinary culture and a unique gem in the dazzling world of food. Today, I have compiled this book with the aim of promoting the essence of Ningbo cuisine, contributing to the inheritance and development of national culinary culture, and providing readers who love Ningbo cuisine with a new reference. Ningbo cuisine primarily uses seafood as its main ingredient, excels in cooking techniques such as steaming, braising, roasting, and stewing, and emphasizes the original flavor, focusing on the tenderness, aroma, softness, and smoothness of seafood. Due to the frequent use of mustard pickled vegetables and seaweed as seasonings, the dishes are mostly savory with a hint of freshness, forming a unique flavor profile. There are many varieties of Ningbo cuisine, among which the most famous include Rock Sugar Turtle Soup and Seaweed-Grilled Yellow Croaker. The traditional dish "Big Soup Yellow Croaker," made with mustard pickled vegetables and fresh yellow croaker, is also a distinctive and renowned dish in Ningbo.
