Mandarin Duck-style Lotus Egg with Hair Moss

　　Mandarin Duck-style Lotus Egg with Hair Moss is a specialty dish from Xining, Qinghai. Chicken breast is minced into a paste and seasoned with ginger, Sichuan peppercorns, and other spices. A thin layer of the chicken paste is spread on soft egg crepes, followed by a layer of hair moss. The mixture is then rolled into a cylinder, steamed, sliced, placed in a bowl, and poured over with a flavored broth before being steamed for another five minutes. The dish is then inverted onto a plate and topped with the sauce. It features an elegant color scheme, beautiful presentation, clear and mellow broth, and a deliciously fresh and savory taste.
