Dishes
Beijing Wood-Fired Roast Duck (Un-sliced)Beijing Wood-Fired Roast Duck (Un-sliced) is a traditional dish featuring a whole Peking duck. Key ingredients include a high-quality fattened duck and fruitwood (such as date or pear wood). The duck is scalded, glazed with sugar syrup, air-dried, and then roasted in a special oven over an open flame fueled by fruitwood. The wood imparts a distinct aroma into the meat and skin, resulting in a crispy, glossy, reddish-brown exterior. Unlike the traditional sliced version, this dish is served whole or in large pieces, preserving the duck's complete form. It is typically accompanied by sweet bean sauce, cucumber strips, scallion slivers, and thin pancakes.
Charcoal-Roasted DuckRoast duck is made from Beijing ducks, marinated and slow-roasted in a special hanging oven. Cooked over fruitwood charcoal, the skin becomes crispy while the meat stays tender, with a bright red color and rich aroma.
Green Onion StripsScallion strips are a simple and refreshing side dish, primarily made from fresh scallions. The preparation involves washing the scallions and slicing them into thin, long strands, typically served alongside main dishes to enhance flavor. Scallion strips not only add a touch of green color to the dish but also their unique spicy taste can stimulate appetite.
Duck SauceBean sauce is made primarily from fresh duck meat, combined with various spices and seasonings, and carefully simmered. First, the duck meat is finely chopped and stir-fried with ingredients such as scallions, ginger, and garlic. Then, a specially prepared sauce is added and the dish is slowly stewed until the duck meat fully absorbs the sauce, resulting in a rich and flavorful texture.
