Chicken item: the cock's fiancee

Cantonese people divide the chicken very carefully: chicken item, raw chicken, cock, cock, cock, and so on. Newcomers listen to wait for a while's advice. In fact, the chicken neck is a hen that has never laid an egg. The raw chicken is a virgin chicken. The cock and the cock are cocks and hens that have lived for a certain age. As for the fan chicken, it is a castrated cock.

For Cantonese who love to eat boiled chicken, each kind of chicken has its own unique taste, among which the chicken is famous for its smooth skin and tender meat.

When it comes to chicken, there is a famous allusion between "she" and Premier Zhou. When President Nixon visited China in 1972, the then Prime Minister Zhou Enlai, in order to welcome this distinguished guest, went to great lengths to send people to all parts of the country to find famous dishes and "conquer" Nixon with delicious dishes. Qingyuan Chicken Item, a famous chicken in Guangdong Province, was chosen fortunately. As a result, Nixon praised it during the dinner and asked about its origin. However, the translator was embarrassed about the chicken item. Premier Zhou, who was known for his urgency, had a brainwave and told Nixon that it was the fiancee of a rooster in Qingyuan, so the host and the guest were full of smiles. This has also become an anecdote that people talk about.

Chicken neck is plump and fat. After cooking, the meat is tender and delicious, the bones are crisp and fragrant, and the taste is rich, which is what we often call "chicken flavor". It is often used for chopping and soaking in soup, and it is also the best tonic for pregnant and lying-in women.
