What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was mesmerized by the 'mutton soup jacuzzi' where four whole sheep are boiled overnight until the meat becomes liquid-like and fall-apart tender. He was particularly impressed by the balance of the rich, fatty broth with the citrusy zing of fresh Sichuan peppercorns. He described the experience as life-changing, noting that the broth was so thick it almost required chewing.
