Soybeans Braised Pork Tails! Super delicious homemade dish. Once you master this, who would still crave braised pork or pig trotters?

@Dr. Li Wenliang, I made a complete dish and poured a cup of respectful wine to wish you a happy Lantern Festival. Today is Lantern Festival. Wishing everyone a joyful holiday. At the same time, a respectable doctor, Dr. Li Wenliang, has finally laid down his burden of saving lives and left the earth he tried to rescue, heading to a heaven without pain and fatigue. I made a complete dish and poured a cup of respectful wine to wish Dr. Li a happy Lantern Festival. I bow deeply, expressing gratitude for your courage, integrity, and selflessness throughout your journey. A noble person's greatness lies not in their esteemed status nor in their immense wealth, but in the purity and selflessness of their soul. Like Dr. Li Wenliang, who saved lives and spoke out honestly, that courage to face danger despite overwhelming odds, standing up for justice and righteousness, is genuinely admirable. Only such a person truly deserves wave after wave of sincere praise and farewell tributes. In this world, there are so many noble and unsung heroes like Dr. Li Wenliang. For example, a kind soul commented under a help-seeking post for hospital beds: "My loved one passed away this afternoon, perhaps freeing up a bed. Sister, give it a call. I hope you may still have a chance." When they wrote this comment, I dare not imagine their pain. But even in such circumstances, they still chose to sympathize, help, and offer hope to others. These are the noble individuals, kind-hearted and selfless ordinary people like Dr. Li Wenliang. Today, I prepared a complete dish and poured a cup of respectful wine. Let us raise our glasses together, wishing these great people, these brave and pure souls, a happy Lantern Festival, a lifetime of health, peaceful blessings, and eternal fearlessness. Perhaps many matters in this world leave us helpless and desperate, but we still choose to believe that in the face of despair, there will always be one brave soul after another, forging onward undeterred, bringing us immense light and hope! So, don’t cry! Let’s raise our glasses! To the noble souls! Cheers!

Cooking Tips

1. The spices I used include star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, cloves, dried chilies, and tsaoko. 2. The key to creating the caramelized sugar color is monitoring the color change. When the syrup turns dark reddish-brown, it’s ready.
