Peking Roast Duck

Peking Roast Duck is a world-renowned delicacy. Its main ingredient is a species of fine duck, the Peking Duck. The duck is roasted with fruitwood charcoal. With rosy skin and rich yet not greasy meat, it is known as the “first delicacy under the heavens.” There are two culinary schools to cooking Peking Duck that are represented by the hung-oven roasted duck of Quanjude and the closed-oven roasted duck of Bianyifang. Both schools adopt Peking Roast Duck as the main ingredient and roast it in an oven after several procedures.

If you visit Beijing, make sure you try Peking Roast Duck or you will regret it!
