Features: This book has three distinctive features: First is "new." The market has introduced many new ingredients and seasonings, and Mr. Chen Jianxin has fully utilized these new ingredients and seasonings to innovate dishes. At the same time, he excels at recombining ordinary ingredients and configuring traditional seasonings, giving the dishes new styles, textures, and flavors. These dishes retain the characteristics of Shanghai cuisine while incorporating influences from other culinary traditions, even Western cuisine. Their color, aroma, taste, and presentation are all full of novelty. Second is "refined." The 121 dishes in this book are the finest selections from hundreds of meticulously created dishes by Mr. Chen Jianxin over the years, many of which have won medals in national cooking competitions. The dishes not only feature exquisite craftsmanship but also come with detailed preparation instructions, accompanied by illustrations, making them easy to apply and offering valuable learning and reference value. Third is "excellent." The success of a new dish ultimately depends on consumer judgment—the higher the order rate, the better the ranking.
