Bean Curd Stick Braised Lamb Belly, and Stuffed Chicken Wings

Why people make these dishes

The winter solstice is nearly here, and as the saying goes, “the solstice is bigger than New Year.” Homemakers prepare a fuller table so the whole family eats happily and feels that warm sense of togetherness. Nourilo shares two of his solstice favorites: bean-curd-stick braised lamb belly, and stuffed chicken wings. Chilled lamb belly and neck are tender cuts that braise beautifully; the bean curd sticks and winter bamboo shoot soak up the savory sauce, keeping the dish flavorful without feeling too greasy.
