Beijing roast duck has become a world-famous American food. Gourmets of past dynasties ate Beijing roast duck and ate a lot of attention. It seems that if they don't eat like this, they can't reflect the authentic flavor. To sum up, there are four main points:
(1) Pay attention to the season:
Roast duck must be eaten in the right season, and bad season will affect the taste. Taste advocates that it is best to eat roast duck in winter, spring and autumn. The reason is that Beijing ducks in winter and spring are tender and tender; The weather is sunny in autumn, and the temperature and humidity are especially suitable for roast duck. At this time, the ducks are also fatter. The summer climate is hot and the air humidity is high. At this time, Beijing duck meat is thin and thin, and its quality is poor. Roast duck skin is easy to root (that is, it is not brittle), so the taste is relatively poor.
② Pay attention to slicing method:
Because slicing is good, not only the shape of the dish is better, but also the taste is more beautiful. After the roast duck is roasted, the skin must be cut off and eaten on a plate before the duck breast collapses. At this time, duck tastes crisp and delicious in the mouth. The practice of duck slices is also particular. Slice the duck skin while it's hot. It's crispy and delicious. Then eat a piece of duck. Second, there are several pieces of belt meat, which are thin but not broken. A duck weighing 2 kg can cut 100 pieces of duck meat, with uniform size, such as the taste of clove leaves, crisp, fragrant, tender and unique.
③ Pay attention to seasoning:
Why can't roast duck be eaten directly? This is because ducks are very fat, and eating them directly will be very greasy. At present, there are three main ways to eat Beijing roast duck, and the ingredients are different. The first one: pick a little sweet noodle sauce with chopsticks, put it on the lotus leaf cake, put some roast duck slices, put some onion strips, cucumber strips or radish strips, and roll up the lotus leaf cake. This is the most common way to eat. The second kind: garlic sauce, or radish strips. Garlic paste can relieve greasy taste. Dip sliced roast duck in garlic paste and soy sauce, which adds a touch of spicy taste and a more unique flavor. Third: Some customers don't like onions and garlic, but they like crispy ducks dipped in fine sugar. This way of eating is especially suitable for ladies and children. It is understood that eating roast duck is also nutritious. According to professionals, roast duck is often eaten with green onions, garlic and cucumber strips. This can not only balance acid and alkali, but also vitamin C and dietary fiber in these foods can lower cholesterol, increase fibrinolytic activity and help digestion. The first seasoning method is the most commonly used at present, and the sweet noodle sauce used in it is produced by Beijing "Liubiju", otherwise the taste will not be regarded as authentic.
④ Pay attention to diet:
There are two kinds of food commonly used to eat roast duck, one is lotus leaf cake; One is hollow sesame cake. You can peel off two pieces of lotus leaf cakes, spread sweet noodle sauce on each piece, then add onion, cucumber strips, (or green radish strips) and roast duck slices, or spread garlic paste, soy sauce, cucumber strips (or green radish strips), and then clip the roast duck slices and roll them up to eat. In the early years, Quanjude Roast Duck Restaurant also prepared a kind of millet porridge cooked with barley rice and red beans all the year round. This kind of millet porridge is bright in color, smooth and refreshing. Drinking a small bowl of this special millet porridge after eating roast duck will definitely bring you great comfort.
