Dongpo Elbow Recipe
When I was a child, every Chinese New Year, my family would always put a big plate of bright red and fragrant Dongpo pork elbow. That is the most beautiful taste in my memory, as if it can travel through time and space and take me back to that Chinese New Year full of laughter and joy. Today, I want to share this beauty with everyone.
