Incorporating nourishing ingredients into the dishes & bringing a new twist to classic signature dishes at Crystal Jade La Mian Xiao Long Bao
The “Nourishing Menu” feast combines precious medicinal ingredients with Crystal Jade’s classic delicacies, highlighting the use of premium ginseng in the dishes. Ginseng is described as having a sweet taste with a slightly cold nature. It is known to nourish the five internal organs, calm the spirit, stabilize the soul, alleviate palpitations, dispel evil energy, improve vision, and enhance cognitive function. Modern Chinese medicine also points out that ginseng has the effects of replenishing vitality, enhancing physical strength, and promoting blood circulation. Consuming ginseng can make one feel mentally alert and full of energy. Additionally, ginseng contains compounds like ginsenosides and ginseng oil, which have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging effects, benefiting skin health. Ginsenosides can make the skin smooth and radiant.
In the “Nourishing Menu” menu, building upon the foundation of Crystal Jade’s classic Eighteen-Fold Xiao Long Bao, ginseng stewed chicken soup is added. Each dumpling is meticulously handmade by dim sum masters, with the perfect coordination of skin, meat, and broth. Upon biting into it, the fresh and flavorful broth inside the dumpling naturally blends with the ginseng chicken soup, elevating the taste to a new level while capturing the essence of ginseng. Additionally, the Lanzhou noodles in use are freshly made on-site by noodle masters, with a chewy texture, paired with the stomach-nourishing ginseng stewed chicken soup, invigorating the spirit and providing vitality and nourishment to the body.
