But we didn\u2019t stop there, we also added some suggestions to try along with them. Some of the combinations might seem a little out of the box, but we encourage you to give them a try. We hope you enjoy! Ch\u012b h\u01ceo h\u0113 h\u01ceo!(\u5403\u597d\u559d\u597d)<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h2>Roasted Pork Belly with Wakame Seaweed Pesto (Good Luck and Prosperity with Wealth &amp; Fortune)<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I know what you\u2019re thinking. Seaweed (Wealth &amp; Fortune) Pesto?? Yes. Roasted Pork (Good Luck and Prosperity) belly goes good with sauce. So we thought, what would be a good substitute for the traditional sauces? Well, Seaweed Pesto came to mind. If you haven\u2019t yet tried it with Seaweed Pesto, you don\u2019t know what you\u2019re missing!<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h2>Steamed Pork with Rice, Muskmelon and Grapefruit: (Good Luck, Prosperity, Hope and Wealth for you and your Family)<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If the first dish is a little too \u2018Out of the box\u2019 for your taste buds, we recommend a more traditional dish \u2013 Steamed Pork (Good Luck and Prosperity) with Rice (Wealth). And to add a contrast taste to the meal, why not have some Muskmelon and Grapefruit (Family, Hope, Wealth and Prosperity) as a side dish. Or if you\u2019re wanting to try something a little different with the main dish, try mixing in the Muskmelon and Grapefruit into the pork and rice. Who knows, you might like the sweet addition that it adds to the dish.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h2>Pork &amp; Dumplings with Tofu and Lotus Seeds (Good Luck and Prosperity with Wealth, Happiness, Fortune and Blessings for a healthy family and many children)<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I know what you\u2019re thinking, \u2018Don\u2019t you mean Chicken &amp; Dumplings (Wealth)?\u2019 Well\u2014No. It\u2019s the year of the pig, not the chicken. So we suggest substituting the chicken for the pig. We also suggest adding some Grilled Tofu (Happiness and Fortune for the entire family) to soak up all of the wonderful seasonings and flavours. And for a vegetable dish, we recommend adding Lotus Seeds to the dish, which like it says above, symbolizes \u2018Blessings for many children and a healthy family\u2019. So if you have any single friends or family members over for dinner, make sure they eat plenty of those!<\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h2>Fried Pork Strips and Eggs with Noodles (Blessings, Prosperity, Happiness, Longevity, and a Big Healthy Family)<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This list wouldn\u2019t be complete without Noodles (Happiness &amp; Longevity)\u2014especially for Chinese New Year. We also recommend adding some Fried Eggs (Big Healthy Family) into the noodles and pork. And if you\u2019re a fan of mushrooms, top it off with some Poria Mushrooms (Blessings and Fortune), which are very good for your digestive system and offers many more health perks.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>\n<h2>Nian Gao with Tusu Wine (New Year Cake with The Emperor\u2019s First Drink)<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Dessert and Tusu\u00a0Wine (The Emperor\u2019s First Drink) can\u2019t be a meal, right? Well\u2014that couldn\u2019t be the furthest from the truth. It really depends on who you\u2019re asking. And if you ask us, we\u2019ll tell you that it classifies as a meal in our cookbook. We suggest adding something along with it\u2014Peach sauce. Yes, take some Peaches (Longevity) and mix them together until you form a sauce, and then pour it on top of the Nian Gao Cake \uff08\u5e74\u7cd5\uff09(New Year Cake). You can\u2019t knock it if you haven\u2019t tried it, right? Trust us!<\/p>\n<h2>There You Have it!<\/h2>\n<p>We hope that these suggestions will serve you well for this Chinese New Year! Let us know if you try one and what you think. From all of us at 1-StopAsia, we would like to wish everyone a very Happy and Prosperous New Year! And we hope that your celebration will be filled with much joy, laughter and excitement as you celebrate it with family and friends!<br \/>\nX\u012bnni\u00e1n h\u01ceo! \uff08\u65b0\u5e74\u597d\uff01\uff09<\/p>\n<p>Written by:\u00a0Joshua Hector<br \/>\n1-StopAsia Marketing Team<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/pngtree.com\/free-vectors\">free vectors from pngtree.com<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Author&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_raw_html]JTVCYW1vX21lbWJlciUyMGlkJTNEJTIyMzAwNyUyMiUyMGl0ZW0td2lkdGglM0QlMjIyNTAlMjIlMjBhbGlnbiUzRCUyMmxlZnQlMjIlMjBpdGVtLW1hcmdpbiUzRCUyMjIwJTIyJTIwZnVsbC13aWR0aCUzRCUyMnllcyUyMiUyMHBhbmVsJTNEJTIybGVmdCUyMiU1RA==[\/vc_raw_html][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1556797554776{padding-top: 200px !important;padding-bottom: 80px !important;background-image: url(http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Blog.jpg?id=7370) !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Our Top 5 Pig Recipes for Chinese New Year 2019&#8243; font_container=&#8221;tag:h1|text_align:left|color:%23ffffff&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; el_class=&#8221;uppercase&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1541668699420{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;background-color: #bf2026 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1541405850168{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7722,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[36],"tags":[1950,1951],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5359"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5359"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5359\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7583,"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5359\/revisions\/7583"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7722"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5359"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5359"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/173.212.196.205\/1stopasia_new\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5359"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
