2015年菜~ 金颗玉绿（Gold and Jade)

  

安迪的童年时段，过年才有机会吃到一些山珍海味。

比如大鱼大肉，不过今日今时，大鱼大肉平时都随口好吃了。

所以，今天我们来点不一样的，就是喜筵常出现的竹生。

During my childhood time, we can only have expensive dishes during CNY, such as fish, meat...... However, now, we can easily have it any day we like. So, today I would like to share with all something different, which often appears during a wedding dinner  -  Dried bamboo shoots (Chuk Sang).

这样，新年的感觉就不言而喻了。。。。。。。

Hopefully, this will cheer you up with the CNY mood......

 本来鲜美脆口的竹生，加上浸吸了鲜甜的高汤，

还有弹口的白果和解腻的蔬菜的配衬，

这道简单带好意兆的菜肴，肯定是我的年菜投选。

I really enjoy the combination of succulent chuk sheng, chunky gingko and fresh greens! I've decided to serve this during my family's CNY dinner.
