　　Stewed Dog Meat

　　Originally a local rural snack, it seldom appeared on formal banquet tables, but has in recent years gradually entered various restaurants and eateries. Stewed dog meat is primarily made with

　　dog meat,

　　along with seasonings such as star anise and dried orange peel. The dog meat is stir-fried in peanut oil until half-cooked, then simmered with other ingredients until tender, and finally mixed with a bit of starch. The stewed dog meat is

　　richly fragrant, leaving a lingering taste in the mouth, and when its sauce is served over rice, it is particularly appetizing and can be eaten in large quantities without tiring. Stewed dog meat is considered a warming and nourishing dish, but it is

　　hard to digest, so those who are physically weak or ill should eat it with caution. There is a folk saying: “Yellow-swollen people crave dog meat, and dogs crave yellow-swollen people.”
