Clay Pot Silkie Chicken Wonton Soup 砂鍋雲吞烏雞
You can use any kind of poultry to substitute the silkie chicken. Partridge is also a good choice if you’re looking for something with Chinese medicinal effects. This recipe traditionally uses Jinhua ham which may be difficult to buy and is quite pricey. I usually have Shanghai salted pork belly in my freezer but I ran out when I made this dish. I ended up using bacon and it actually worked quite well. Use napa cabbage or shanghai bok choy or both. But bok choy is to be put in only 5 minutes before serving.

Shanghai Fried Thick Noodles 上海粗炒
A thick noodle is traditionally used for this dish, but you can use any noodle that you like. Udon noodles can be used but you may want to add less water for the braising part and braise for a shorter amount of time. Udon noodles are softer and have higher water content than Shanghai noodles. Bok choy, spinach, napa cabbage are also commonly used instead of cabbage

Shanghai Rice Cake in Soup 上海湯年糕
I used Korean rice cakes that can be found in the refrigerated section of many supermarkets. But you can also use the dried Chinese ones. They tend not to be as chewy as the Korean ones and may take a shorter cooking time but longer soaking time. You can easily make this into a vegetarian dish and can substitute the Shanghai salted pork belly with any meat. Green cabbage, carrots, shepherd’s purse, spinach, bok choy, various mushrooms, and various preserved vegetables are also commonly used.

Chicken with Ginger Scallion Oil 薑蔥油淋雞
I used a whole chicken for this recipe, but you can use any part of the chicken. Chicken legs and chicken wings come to mind. I’m not a big fan of eating ginger, but I like ginger flavour. So, in this recipe, I didn’t add any shredded ginger with the shredded green onions. If you like cilantro, add it with the green onions and also some to cook the sauce.
