Peking duck (“北京烤鸭”in Chinese) is my beloved dish and is also a famous and traditional Chinese duck dish from Beijing that I’ve just tasted few days ago at BBQ King restaurant in City. The peking duck has been prepared since imperial’s time and now is considered as one of the most national dish of China.

It is famous known due to the thin, crisp skin, with authentic versions of the dish serving mostly the skin and little meat, sliced in front of the diners by the cook.  Ducks bred specially for the dish are slaughtered after 65 days and seasoned before being roasted in a closed or hung oven that the smell and taste is really attractive. I think peking duck is just like the tradition of roast turkey in America, which owes its origin to the roast goose that is still popular in Europe on festive occasions. Then, it is not time to enjoy your food for Peking Duck yet, as it is always served in well-cut slices. To be honest,the whole duck must be sliced into 120 pieces and every piece has to be perfect with the complete layers of the meat. It is not easy to do which requires the high cutting skills of the cook as a little mistake will make the taste different, as a result, watch their cutting technique is also one part of enjoyment.

Normally there are many dishes served with the duck, I strongly recommended to to combine with a dish of fine-cut shallot bars, a dish of cucumber bars and finally a dish of paste-like soy of fermented wheat flour when you eat it. The taste is just wonderful mixed with these food!!!!!!!!
