In addition to the candidates, Nanjing people also have duck oil pie, duck blood vermicelli soup and eight-treasure duck. The practice of so many ducks reminds people of a famous sentence in Nanjing, "Jinling can't eat ducks, Jinling ducks can't eat." From the perspective of Nanjing people, nothing can't be linked with eating ducks. It is precisely because of the promotion of Nanjing people who like to eat ducks that we can get such a set of data information: China accounts for 20% of the world's population, but the production and sales of beef reach 70%.
Away from China, we are Americans who are basically not partial to food. As an economic power, Americans have a big appetite. The average obesity index of Americans ranks in the top three in the whole world, but it is puzzling. Why do Americans eat pork, mutton, chicken and sometimes beef, but they don't have a fever or catch a cold at all? Even in American supermarkets, most of them can't see goose?
In terms of cooking methods, it is also difficult for Americans to solve goose meat in their daily cooking. As we all know, goose meat is not slippery, and it is more difficult to cook than chicken breast. The way Americans cook every day is nothing more than frying and baking. In the face of goose meat, it's easy not to know how to start. Even if it is cooked, the goose is either undercooked or overcooked and can't eat at all.
In terms of taste, ducks are omnivorous livestock, and the ingredients and habits they swallow make duck meat have a fishy smell. When China people treat domestic ducks, they usually try their best to remove the fishy smell, and use spices such as star anise, pepper, onion and garlic to cover up the fishy smell. And Americans cook because the smell of goose is hard to get rid of, and goose is hard to taste, so most Americans dare not say that they like duck in the future.
This urges Americans to choose chicken breast which is tender and easy to cook, but not thick goose which smells fishy. However, this does not mean that it is not easy for every American to eat ducks, but in popular culture, Americans have not publicized and planned to eat ducks.
When do Americans eat duck? At some high-end Michelin stars, Americans will taste the goose. But the goose cooked by these foreign chefs is not the whole duck in China, but the duck breast with the most meat is cut off and cooked in the form of smoked duck breast, which is warmly welcomed by foreigners.
There is also a kind of goose that Americans love very much, and that is Beijing roast duck. Although Nanjing examinee is the ancestor of examinee, Beijing roast duck enjoys a high reputation all over the world. When foreigners arrive in China and Beijing, the first thing they want to taste is Beijing Roast Duck. Even in Chinatown in the United States, some Chinese shops will release the increasingly popular Beijing roast duck without spitting bones. Goose meat has no fishy smell.
