Xiao long bao: Shanghai-style "soup dumplings": a thin pleated wrapper around seasoned pork and a cube of gelatinized stock that melts into hot broth as it steams. Eat them from a spoon: bite a corner, sip the soup, then finish the dumpling with a little black vinegar and ginger. On this menu as: Soup Dumplings · Pork Soup Dumplings · Chicken Soup Dumplings.
Potstickers: Crescent-shaped dumplings (jiaozi) pan-fried on one side until crisp, then steamed in the same pan so the tops stay tender. Boiled versions of the same dumpling are usually listed as "boiled dumplings" or shui jiao; the fillings (pork and cabbage, pork and chive, shrimp, or vegetable) are the same. On this menu as: Beef Pan-Fried Dumpling · Shanghai Pan-Fried Dumpling · Shrimp & Pork Pan-Fried Dumpling.
Red-braised pork: Pork belly simmered slowly with soy, rock sugar, rice wine and spices until the fat turns silky and the sauce reduces to a red-brown glaze. Shanghai's version is sweeter; Hunan's (Chairman Mao pork) adds chili; Dongpo pork is the Hangzhou cut-into-a-single-cube version. On this menu as: Braised Pork Belly Bun · Braised Pork Belly Noodle Soup.
Chili oil / chili crisp: Oil infused with toasted chili flakes and often star anise, cinnamon and Sichuan peppercorn. Chili crisp keeps the crunchy fried flakes and garlic in the jar. It dresses cold noodles, wontons and dumplings, and sits on most Sichuan tables. On this menu as: Boiled Beef in Hot Chili Oil · Boiled Fish in Hot Chili Oil.
Tofu (bean curd): Pressed soybean curd, from custard-soft (for mapo tofu and soups) to firm (for stir-fries and braises). Fried tofu puffs soak up sauce; tofu skin (yuba) is the sheet lifted off simmering soy milk, rolled and braised or fried as a "vegetarian duck". On this menu as: Celery and Beancurd Salad · Mapo Tofu.
Wonton: Small dumplings in a thin square wrapper, loosely gathered rather than pleated. Served in clear broth (wonton soup, often with egg noodles), deep-fried as an appetizer, or tossed in chili oil as a Sichuan cold plate, "red oil wontons" or hong you chao shou. On this menu as: Shanghai Chili Wontons.
