Tucheng City Market Deli Stall Introduction
This food stall at the entrance of Zhongzheng Road Market has no name or sign, but it has been quite famous in Tucheng District for over two decades. The old-fashioned traditional stall offers a variety of delicious cooked dishes that are praiseworthy. Boss Wang prepares a dozen types of cooked food daily, including pig ears, pig skin, pig liver, ham, sausage, and roasted chicken, with roasted chicken, ham, and pig skin being the most popular items. The roasted chicken is specially marinated in a Chinese herb broth, using fresh chickens slaughtered on the same day, then roasted in an oven with sugar for smoking, perfectly showcasing the flavor of the chicken through the fusion of the herbal broth and the smoked sugar. Boss Wang's pig trotter ham is a must-try delicacy. The process involves cleaning out the bones and meat from the entire pig trotter, leaving behind just the hollow skin, which is then filled with flavorful pig leg meat, sealed, and simmered in braising broth until cooked. It is sliced and served upon request. The pig trotter ham combines the soft and chewy texture of the pig skin with the tender pig leg meat, resulting in a rich aroma and fantastic smoky flavor that is simply irresistible.
