Guess, which famous dish is Sichuan style pork or pot-stewed pork? The answer is pot-stewed pork.
Pot-wrapped meat comes from Heilongjiang Province in the northeast of China, and Sichuan Province in the southwest of China. Although their cooking methods and tastes are similar, the ingredients and cuisines they use are different. Pot meat is mainly lean pork, with sweet and sour taste and golden color; Sichuan style pork is mainly pork with skin, with spicy taste and bright red color.
Pot-wrapped meat, formerly known as pot-fried meat, was created by Zheng Xingwen, the chef of Harbin Daotai Mansion, in Guangxu period. After cooking, it is golden in color and sweet and sour in taste. Pot-wrapped meat is a dish with sweet and sour taste, which changes the salty and fresh "burnt pork strips" into one to meet the tastes of foreign guests. Usually, the pork tenderloin is sliced and marinated, wrapped in deep-fried pulp, fried until golden brown in the pan, fished out, and then stirred and thickened in the pan.
