Over on 老饭骨, the masters demonstrate how to elevate humble ingredients in a traditional state banquet dish called “Shao Er Dong” (braised winter bamboo shoots and dried shiitake mushrooms). They reveal that briefly frying the ingredients at 170°C locks in their moisture, while a simple braise with chicken fat, soy sauce, and sugar creates a stunningly rich glaze. Meanwhile, 詹姆士官方專屬頻道 makes White Cut Chicken incredibly accessible by using boneless chicken thighs instead of a whole bird. After boiling the chicken in a seasoned ginger-scallion broth for just one minute, he turns off the heat and steeps the meat for about 15 to 16 minutes before moving it to an ice bath.
