Dongjiang Crispy Meatballs
Dongjiang Crispy Meatballs: Su Dongpo was known for his bold and free-spirited nature. His poems often offended the powerful, resulting in several demotions. One day, after returning home from court, he pointed to his belly and asked his wives and concubines, “What do I have in here?” One replied, “Writings.” Another said, “Insight.” But his concubine Wang Chaoyun smiled and said, “A bellyful of things out of season.” Su Dongpo praised her, saying, “You understand me, only you, Chaoyun!” Later, Su Dongpo adapted the Hangzhou-style crispy pork into meatball form and named them “Out of Season.” They were later called “Dongjiang Crispy Meatballs,” also known as “Dongjiang Su Meatballs.”
Features: Rich flavor, tender and crispy.
