China's vast territory and large population have given birth to a developed food culture, and unique cuisines have been born everywhere, and many local cuisines have even traveled all over the country, such as Beijing roast duck.
Beijing roast duck actually originated from Nanjing, more than 600 years of history, the meat is tender and fat but not greasy, and then often appeared at state banquets to entertain foreign guests, and now branches throughout the country, but in Guangdong planted a heel so that it is difficult to find in the streets.
Guangdong is also a place rich in food, and Peking duck has suffered setbacks here, in large part because Guangdong has a strong rival, Guangdong Brine Goose.
Guangdong brine goose is a special snack in the Chaoshan region of Guangdong Province, which belongs to the Chaoshan cuisine family. The dish is made with soy sauce, rock sugar, cinnamon, sand kernels, cardamom, star anise, ginger, rice wine, garlic, shiitake mushrooms and other brines. Therefore, the brine lion head goose has a long history in Chaoshan Province. The specific cooking methods vary slightly from place to place in Guangdong, but the fresh and tender flavor of the meat is very popular with locals.
Because Beijing roast duck is more expensive than the general brine goose, its taste is more heavy and greasy and does not meet the taste of Cantonese people, so it is difficult to mix in Guangdong.
But why is it so difficult to see the halogen goose in other parts of Guangdong? In fact, the reason is the same as Beijing roast duck in Guangdong, or lies in the price and taste, although not as expensive as Beijing roast duck, but due to the long growth time of the goose and the cumbersome process, compared to other roast chicken roast duck brine goose is still a lot more expensive, and the taste is relatively light Guangdong outside the local people are difficult to get used to, plus the history is not as long as Beijing roast duck and did not form a well-known enterprise like Quanjude, so the smaller reputation is basically limited to Guangdong.
