Shanghai cuisine, characterized by a greater use of soy sauce, sugar, rice wine and rice vinegar, reflects the cooking styles of the provinces of Jiangsu, Anhui, Zhejiang, Fujian and Jiangxi. In Shanghai, the largest city in the People’s Republic of China, it is not uncommon to spot celebrities waiting to dine at Old Jesse, widely recognized as the best restaurant in the city for authentic Shanghainese dishes. Among the house specialties, and one you must order in advance, is the Eight Treasure Pig Trotter Stuffed with Rice. Old Jesse’s version showcases tender, deboned, melt-in-your-mouth soy-braised pork. Stuffed with fluffy rice filled with sweet dates, dried scallops, earthy mushrooms and so much more, this amazing treat is Chowzter’s Tastiest Rice in Asia for 2015.
