Nanjing salted duck 南京盐水鸭 →
Duck is salted and gently cooked in a seasoned liquid, then cooled and chopped into bone-in slices. The method emphasizes curing and controlled cooking rather than roasting the skin crisp. The skin remains pale and supple, while the meat is firm, juicy and evenly salty. Aromatics should support the duck's own flavor.
Squirrel-shaped mandarin fish 松鼠鳜鱼 →
Mandarin fish is carefully deboned and cross-cut so the flesh opens during deep-frying. A sweet-and-sour sauce is poured over the crisp, sculptural fish just before serving. The coating is light and crunchy, with moist fish beneath and a bright sauce that combines sweetness and acidity.
