Dragonair's new menu: How to serve claypot rice while airborne

Thu, 10/20/2011 - 12:39 — Anonymous Dragonair has unveiled its new seasonal
menu for first and business class passengers on its Beijing and Shanghai
routes. The highlights include Hong Kong's winter staple, claypot
rice.Claypot rice is essentially a casserole of white rice with various
toppings, traditionally prepared over fiery charcoal. While this method of
cooking is not possible onboard Dragonair's flights, the airline has figured
out how to mimic the original dish as closely as possible.Flight attendants
have been instructed to reheat the rice bowls covered with a cabbage leaf to
preserve moisture in the rice and toppings. The rice on the bottom of the
bowl even gets crispy, like an authentic claypot rice dish. var
