💛 家鄉 #五柳炸蛋 Old Guangzhou style Deep Fried Eggs 🍳, with traditional Cantonese 5 Pickles sauce. 要嚟送飯
This recipe is more popular up in old GZ, these days one probably can't find it on Hong Kong side anymore, so lucky to find at least a place cooking one! Here we ate it with Pigs Lard oil Rice, the rendered oil is not too aromatic although u can taste a bit of it in the mouth. A bit subdued 😬
Speaking of the 懷舊 #五柳汁 , here unfortunately it's mostly sugary commercial grade 糖醋 & #瓜英 味道. Not showcasing the complete profile of the original sauce recipes, which can be almost vegetal fruity. Missing the taste of the Pickled ginger & shallot bulbs like 蘇薑, 橋頭, final artisanal sauce tuning etc. This is a taste profile which has taken shortcuts & is hard to rediscover in modern Hong Kong so sad sometimes!
Surprisingly, u will have better luck finding that past Cantonese escabeche-like taste in a Chinese Vegetarian shop 齋舖/素食店 or in Macau after the 2000's, when they adhere to traditions more strictly
