"Shen Chu, what does it mean to deal with the duck rack?"

"That's right, isn't that thing a bone? Does it have to be processed and given to Chu Shen and Miss Xiao Yue to eat?"

Chu Qian thought briefly for a moment and answered the waiter's question.

"As usual, half salt and pepper, half soup."

"Okay, do you two need anything else?"

Chu Qian ordered a few more signature dishes of the capital. They said they were the signature dishes of the capital, but in fact they were dishes from several other cuisines and were not unique to the capital.

After the waiter took away the menu, Chu Qian began to communicate with the audience in the live broadcast room.

"Everyone, maybe you don't know much about roast duck. It's because of our visit to the store that we have a certain understanding of roast duck."

"Actually, roast duck is divided into several factions. The northern faction is the roast duck in Beijing. Although there are many roast duck restaurants in Beijing, their methods are different."

"The ducks must be stuffed duck. Whether it is Juquande, Fuyunji, or another Xiangyi imitation, they all use stuffed duck."

"But no one has given a detailed response as to why stuffed duck is used to make duck batches. I think this should be related to the secret recipe of roast duck."

"By the way, let me give you a little bit of science knowledge for all the brothers in the live broadcast room."

"Actually, everyone thinks that Juquande is the most famous restaurant in the roast duck world and the one with the longest history, right?"

The viewers in the live broadcast room responded immediately.

"That must be it!"

"Even foreigners have heard of Juquande. Isn't Juquande famous enough?"

Chu Qian looked at the camera with a slight smile and shook her head slightly.

"Actually, if we simply compare history, the one with the longest history is Xiangyifang!"

"Xiangyifang used to be a place dedicated to supplying roast duck to the emperor. In ancient times, there was an emperor who liked eating Jinling sliced ​​duck the most, so Xiangyifang was founded."

"As for Juquande, it is an improvement on Jinling sliced ​​duck that came up later. So in terms of history, Xiangyifang, which is famous for Jinling sliced ​​duck, is the one that has been in business the longest."

While they were talking, Chu Qian's roast duck had already been pushed to their private room on a trolley by the chef of Pian Ya.

"Two guests, this is your duck. I will fillet the duck in front of you!"

This was Xiaoyue's first time to seriously eat this kind of roast duck, so she became interested immediately.

"Does every roast duck have to be sliced ​​into slices before it can be served?"

The chef who sliced ​​the duck nodded towards Xiao Yue, "Roast duck used to be something only rich people could eat, because the process of making it very tests one's patience."

"So, the job of Master Pianya appeared."

"First, it is to make it easier for guests to eat, so they don't have to wolf down the food and appear unqualified."

“Secondly, this way, we can better display all the places suitable for eating in front of everyone, so that everyone can eat the parts they want!”

When she saw the duck-slicing master slice off the roast duck skin first and cut it into a separate plate, Chu Qian explained to the audience in the live broadcast room: "This is the special thing about roast duck."

"I believe you must have heard of roast duck and roast goose. The way they are made makes the duck skin and the duck meat connected together, making it difficult to separate them easily."

"But roast duck is not painful. Before roasting the duck, air should be inflated between the skin and the meat to completely separate the skin and duck meat!"

"In this way, the fat between the duck skin and the duck meat can allow the duck skin to be roasted at a high temperature alone, achieving a crispy texture!" After hearing Chu Qian's explanation, the chef of the duck also looked at Chu Qian. Qian cast an appreciative look.

“Looking at the two of you, I guess they are not locals, but I didn’t expect that they also have such a deep understanding of roast duck!”

Chu Qian chuckled, "We are food explorers, so naturally we know more than ordinary people."

"However, I have heard that the skin of roast duck dipped in sugar will have a unique flavor, is that true?"

The master of Pianya nodded, "That's right."

"The two guests can take a look. There is white sugar prepared in advance on the table. You can dip the duck skin in the sugar and have a taste."

"This is a habit left over from ancient times. I heard that when roast duck was popular, the ladies in the boudoir also liked to eat roast duck very much. But because they didn't like to eat it with shredded green onions to relieve their greasiness, they invented a way to eat it dipped in white sugar. ."

"Serving, this way of eating has been passed down. Once we see a female guest, we will definitely provide a plate of white sugar!"

Xiaoyue glanced at Chu Qian, but felt a little resistant in her heart.

The skin of the duck is still very rich in fat, and the white sugar is sweet and greasy. The combination of the two is really hard for her to eat.

But when the duck chef placed a plate of duck skin on the table, Chu Qian immediately picked up a piece of duck skin, dipped it in white sugar, and put it into her mouth.

However, this time Chu Qian did not give any comments.

For her, this roast duck was a bit disappointing.

Although according to the requirements for roast duck, as long as the duck skin can be separated from the duck meat and there is no problem with the color, it can basically be regarded as a qualified roast duck.

However, the piece of duck skin she had just eaten made her feel as if there was grease flowing in her mouth. The greasy feeling made it difficult for her to swallow.

Seeing that Chu Qian had tried it, Xiaoyue also wanted to give it a try, but Chu Qian stopped Xiaoyue with her eyes.

At this time, the duck slicer has already sliced ​​the duck, and the remaining duck rack will be taken to the kitchen for processing.

At this time, the waiter began to tell Chu Qian and Xiaoyue the specific steps to eat roast duck.

"Two guests, you can pick up a piece of roast duck, with or without the skin. With the skin on, the texture will be richer, but without the skin, you can feel the delicate meat of the roast duck!"

Then the waiter pointed to the sweet noodle sauce on the side, "Both guests, dip a little bit of the sweet noodle sauce and place the roast duck on the crust of your hands."

"Then you can add shredded green onions or cucumber strips according to your preference!"

"Then roll up the crust and bite into it. The different textures blend together in your mouth. This is the essence of roast duck!"

After saying that, the waiter made a gesture of please.

"Please use it slowly, I won't disturb you two. I wish you both a happy meal!"

Under the guidance of the waiter, Chu Qian and Xiaoyue also put the first lotus leaf cake into their mouths.

But at that moment, Chu Qian and Xiao Yue looked at each other with intriguing expressions.

The viewers in the live broadcast room realized that something was not right after seeing the reactions of Chu Qian and Xiaoyue.

"Chu Shen, what's wrong with you?"

“Is Fuyunji’s roast duck so unpalatable?”
