Cured rice

Overview

On the streets of Guangzhou, there are some food stalls called Claypot Rice. When you pass by, you can always smell the mixed aroma of various meats, and your saliva will salivate. In Shanghai, I saw a tea restaurant selling Claypot Rice, but after eating it, The cured meat in my mouth is not the same. This year I went back to Guangzhou for the Chinese New Year and brought back sausage, bacon, cured duck, and even dace fish cakes. I didn’t have a clay pot, so I made an improved version of clay pot rice (steamed rice is actually one of the Cantonese Hakka specialities).
