Chinese Sausage

Chinese Sausage is a Cantonese-style cured sausage commonly used in Chinese cooking, known for its sweet-savory flavor and glossy, reddish appearance; it is often sliced and stir-fried with rice, steamed with rice, or used to add pronounced flavor to dishes. As a cured, fatty meat product it delivers concentrated taste and cooks quickly to caramelized edges. Nutritionally, Chinese Sausage provides about 21g of protein per 100g, making it a meaningful protein source, but it is also high in fat and salt compared with fresh meats. It also contains B-vitamin (thiamine) and selenium, which contribute to energy metabolism and antioxidant defenses. From a health perspective, this is a highly processed, energy-dense ingredient that offers good protein quality but limited fiber and a high saturated-fat/sodium load, so it’s best enjoyed in small amounts or swapped for lower-fat or plant-based alternatives when you want a lighter option.
