Instructions for Use

Wash thoroughly; the preparation method is the same as for venison. However, the heart, liver, and tripe do not need to be double-boiled; simply simmer them in a pot until very tender and eat. As for the kidneys, split them open and remove the inner and outer membranes; soak them in a mixture of salt, wine, and a small amount of vinegar for one hour. Add sesame oil and pepper seasoning, mix well, bring to a boil, and serve immediately. Extract the marrow and simmer it in wine with scallions and ground Sichuan pepper.
