Chenpi (Pericarpium Citri Reticulatae), known as one of the “three treasures of Guangdong”, is a traditional Chinese medicine from the dried and ripe peel of an orange or tangerine that has the function of eliminating dampness and phlegm. It has always been used as a traditional seasoning in Chinese cooking. Besides a bowl of authentic soup, some Cantonese dishes such as pork and duck will use this ingredient occasionally. It not only makes Guangdongers enjoy a taste of home, but also has become a unique culture in Guangdong’s historical heritage.
陈皮，“广东三宝”之一，也是药膳同源的食材，由柑皮晒干制成，具有祛湿、祛痰的作用。一直以来陈皮也是中国传统的烹饪调料，广东人除了煲老火靓汤，有时还会用陈皮做成令人齿颊留香的陈皮排骨和陈皮鸭。陈皮不仅能唤醒广东人的乡情，在历史传承中也形成一种独特的文化。
