Macheng meat pie and Chu cuisine are traditional dishes in Macheng, Hubei Province. Macheng is a famous banquet "meat pie mat", in which meat pie is the first of ten dishes. The specific method of Macheng Meat Pie is to remove the spines and skins of fresh fish and the bones and skins of pork (pork belly is the best), and chop them all into paste. Then, put the sweet potato powder, clear water and salt into a basin in proportion and stir them with the meat sauce, then add seasonings such as Jiang Mo and chopped green onion, make them into a round or square shape, put them into a steamer, steam them for 30 minutes on high fire, and cut them into long strips after coming out of the cage. Hot pot is very good.

I like my mother's sauerkraut soup and sauerkraut jiaozi best. I can eat ten jiaozi, but I can only eat five other stuffed jiaozi.

This is my favorite when I was in the northeast, and I can take my mother's pickled cabbage bumps to school for dinner!
