Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai all have the habit of eating sauced duck. When it comes to sauced duck, I think of the famous specialty of Kunshan-braised sauced duck.
Stewed duck is a famous specialty in Kunshan. It is characterized by its excellent color, fragrance and taste, and has the reputation of "a pot-cooked, fragrant town", which is quite famous in Jiangnan water town.
Kunshan, with many lakes, reeds and grass beaches, has always been a place for wild ducks, pheasants and breeding. The stewed duck in Kunshan used to be stewed by wild animals.
Zhoushi Town, northeast of Kunshan, was famous for processing braised ducks as early as the Qing Dynasty. At that time, there were more than 11 shops processing braised ducks in the whole town, among which Qiu Dezhai Game Shop of Qiu Baqin, Taihe Pavilion of Wu Shaotang and Zuiyueju of Zhoujia were the most distinctive.
With the development of society, the transformation of wasteland is decreasing, and Kunshan braised duck is cooked with hemp, which is fat but not greasy, tender but not rotten, delicious and nutritious, suitable for all ages, and has the functions of appetizing and increasing appetite.
Since p>1979, Kunshan has successively established three food companies mainly producing braised ducks, opened five braised duck restaurants, and developed individual processing and distribution households.
In the history of Zhoushi Town, descendants of Taihe Restaurant, Zuiyueju Restaurant, Qiuyidai Restaurant and other restaurants should go to Suzhou, Shanghai and other places to cook, and Kunshan braised duck will be fragrant everywhere and become another good wish on people's dining table.
