Authentic practice of Hakka brewing bitter gourd

Traditional Hakka dishes are mainly stews. The most common ones are stewed bitter gourd, eggplant, pepper and tofu. Stews made from different ingredients taste different. There are two kinds of clip vegetables, one is to make stuffing with glutinous rice, and the other is to make stuffing with minced meat after seasoning. In the old society, most people couldn't afford meat, so people ate more glutinous rice stuffing. Although the society has developed into a new era, people still can't afford to eat meat, but fermented meat is undoubtedly more popular.
