Region
The dish is common to the cultures of Southern China, including Guangdong, Fujian, and Hong Kong.
In all cases it is served with a condiment called jīang-cōng (姜蓉, Cantonese: goeng1 jung4) or jīang-cōng-yóu (薑蔥油, Cantonese: goeng1 cung1 jau4), which is a salted mixture of finely minced ginger, scallions, and either liquid pork fat or vegetable oil.

Famous quotes containing the word region:
“It was a favor for which to be forever silent to be shown this vision. The earth beneath had become such a flitting thing of lights and shadows as the clouds had been before. It was not merely veiled to me, but it had passed away like the phantom of a shadow, skias onar, and this new platform was gained. As I had climbed above storm and cloud, so by successive days’ journeys I might reach the region of eternal day, beyond the tapering shadow of the earth.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“This moment exhibits infinite space, but there is a space also wherein all moments are infinitely exhibited, and the everlasting duration of infinite space is another region and room of joys.”
—Thomas Traherne (1636–1674)
“Then, that no region of the universe
Should remain void of life, the floor of heaven
Was peopled with the stars and godlike forms,
The seas became the abode of glittering fish.
Earth took the beasts and mobile air the birds.
A holier animal was wanting.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
