During the Chinese New Year, there are always some braised dishes at home. Remembering that it's my mom who makes them every year, I suggested trying something like braised pig ears. I really didn't have much experience in making it, but now I realize that there are too many first-time attempts I need to make in order to keep improving! After braising, you can also dip it in the sauce to eat, which makes the taste more rich!

2. Ginger, dried chili, fragrant leaves, cinnamon, star anise, Sichuan pepper, cloves.
3. Cut a small piece of gauze, shred the dried chili, add Sichuan peppercorns, and wrap the cloves inside.
