Sea cucumber absorbs a rich scallion-scented sauce while retaining a springy texture. Ask the serving size before ordering this banquet-style dish.

How it is made

Prepared sea cucumber is braised in a savory stock enriched with cooked scallions, and the sauce is reduced to coat it. Much of the work takes place before final cooking, especially when dried sea cucumber is used.

Flavour & texture

Sea cucumber contributes a springy, gelatinous texture more than a strong flavor; scallion and stock supply the aromatic depth.

Local roots & traditions

The dish sits in Liaoning's more formal seafood and banquet repertoire.

Pressure-braised young chicken 压锅小公鸡 →

Bone-in young chicken is cooked under pressure with a seasoned sauce and aromatics. This shortens the softening stage while allowing the meat and bones to flavor the liquid. The chicken is tender and moist, with a concentrated savory coating. Skin and joints bring a richer texture than a boneless chicken stir-fry.

Dalian seaweed jelly 大连海凉粉 →

Seaweed is boiled so its gelling components enter the liquid, which is strained and allowed to set. The jelly is cut and dressed with savory condiments such as garlic, vinegar and soy sauce. Cool, slippery pieces have a delicate bite and a mild marine note; most of the stronger flavor comes from the dressing.
