Poon Choi is a food custom in Shenzhen, Guangdong and the New Territories of Hong Kong. It is said to have originated in the late Southern Song Dynasty and has a history of hundreds of years. It is a food that can only be eaten during festivals or festive events. Generally, Poon Choi is made of a large pot or basin, which contains common ingredients such as chicken, duck, fish, and pork. Later, with the improvement of economic level, various high-end and precious ingredients were also added to Poon Choi. In fact, no matter how the ingredients change, what remains unchanged is the profound meaning contained in Poon Choi. The dishes are full, the dishes are booming, and the family is reunited. The Chinese pay attention to the meaning. After eating such auspicious and good-meaning dishes, they pray for a prosperous business and family reunion in the coming year... The large pot of vegetables I made today did not strictly follow the ingredients of the traditional pot.
