Juzi La Pai has a close connection with ancient imperial examinations. In ancient times, whenever Juzi (i.e. candidates taking the imperial examination) went to Beijing to take the exam, their family and friends would prepare various auspicious foods for them, hoping that they would succeed in the imperial examination. La Pai, as one of them, is not only delicious, but also symbolizes "rising step by step". We hope that candidates can rise step by step in exams and achieve excellent results. This traditional custom has been passed down to this day, making Ju Zi La Pai a culturally distinctive delicacy.

The production process of Ju Zi La Pai is very particular, requiring the use of high-quality pork ribs as raw materials, carefully crafted through multiple processes such as pickling, drying, and smoking. During the pickling process, appropriate amounts of salt, sugar, cooking wine, spices, and other seasonings are added to allow the pork ribs to fully absorb the fragrance of the seasonings. The drying and smoking process can further remove moisture and fishy smell from the pork ribs, while adding a unique smoky flavor. The final product of Ju Zi La Pai has a bright red color, a strong aroma, and a delicious taste.

The flavor of Ju Zi La Pai is unique, with both the salty and fragrant taste of cured meat and the fresh and tender taste of pork ribs. After being smoked, the cured meat has a more fragrant aroma and a firm and elastic texture. When cooking, there are various ways to choose from, such as steaming, boiling, stewing, etc., all of which can fully showcase the deliciousness of Ju Zi La Pai. Whether as a main dish or a side dish, it can leave a lasting impression.

Ju Zi La Pai can be eaten as a delicious home cooked dish. Before cooking, it is necessary to soak the cured meat for a period of time to remove excess salt and smoky flavor. Then you can choose to steam, boil, or stew to cook, and add appropriate seasonings and side dishes according to personal taste to enhance the flavor. In addition, Ju Zi La Pai can also be served as a special dish to entertain guests or as a gift to family and friends, allowing them to taste this culturally rich delicacy.
