【Tianjin】Meat Dragon

Overview

It seems that flesh dragons are not unique to Tianjin. We often see the word "meat dragon" in the weekly recipes in the canteens of kindergartens and primary schools here. My eldest friend also likes meat dragon very much and wants to steam it from time to time. Beat the pork filling, roll it into fermented dough sheets, steam and cut into sections for enjoyment. Steaming a big meat dragon during the Spring Festival is auspicious and beautiful. The meals are all in one, easy to eat without sacrificing deliciousness.
