Hakka delicacies
Hakka stir-fry
This Hakka signature dish is made by first stir-frying pork belly and dried tofu on high heat, then adding dried squid, and finally sautéing with chili peppers, celery, and green onions. A classic dish with layers of flavors is ready to be served!
Asian pear
The plump pears are large and heavy. When peeled, the juice flows out continuously, revealing the white flesh that is juicy and fine. The crisp and refreshing taste with the sweet aroma make this fruit irresistible.
Ponkan orange
Ponkans have a protruding pedicel and therefore are called pon(protruding)-kan(orange) in Taiwanese. The orange-yellow peel is smooth and shiny, and the fruit is plump in a slightly flat shape. They are small in size, sweet, sour, juicy, and flavorful.
