Tucheng Market Food Stall Introduction
This food stall at the entrance of Zhongzheng Road Market has no name or sign, but it has been popular in Tucheng District for over twenty years. The old traditional stall offers a variety of delicious cooked dishes that receive rave reviews. Every day, Boss Wang prepares more than a dozen cooked items, including pig ears, pig skin, pork liver, ham, sausages, and roasted chicken. Among these, roasted chicken, ham, and pig skin are the most popular delicacies in the stall. The roasted chicken is specially marinated in traditional Chinese herbal broth, with fresh chicken that is cleaned and cooked the same day, then smoked with sugar in an oven. The combination of the herbal marinade and the smoky sweetness beautifully showcases the flavors of the roasted chicken. Boss Wang's pig trotter ham is also a must-try. The process involves scraping out the bone and meat from a whole pig trotter, leaving just the hollow skin, which is then filled with flavorful pork leg meat, closed off, and simmered in marinade until fully cooked, ready to be sliced when ordered. The pig trotter ham combines the tender chewiness of the pig skin with the succulent pork leg meat, resulting in a rich, delectable flavor that is irresistible.
