Taro Braised Pork Belly

Taro Braised Pork Belly

　　“Taro Braised Pork Belly” is one of the famous dishes in the Guangxi region. It is made with pork belly as the main ingredient, combined with peeled Lipo taro from Guangxi and various seasonings, then steamed and served upside down on a plate. The Lipo taro is produced in Heshan City, Guangxi. These taros are large—each weighing over half a kilogram—with white, fine-textured flesh, a rich aroma, and high protein content. The finished dish has a deep iron-red color, with tender yet not mushy meat, soft and glutinous taro, the pork infused with taro flavor, and the taro enriched with the taste of pork, offering a uniquely delightful flavor.
