In the one corner, you've got a filling and theatrical roast duck. In the other, a light, flavorful poultry. So which one rules the roost?
By Tracy You, for CNN 18 November, 2013
Peking duck may be one of China’s most famous feasts, but the true capital of duck dishes lies 1,160 kilometers south.
Nanjing, the provincial capital of Jiangsu, is well-known in China for its tasty duck offerings. Local chefs produce soups, appetizers, main courses, pastries, snacks, dim sums and even travel souvenirs out of this livestock.
If the saucy, filling and theatrical Peking duck is typical of China’s northern fare, then Nanjing’s duck dishes are a good reflection of the palette of Chinese southerners. It's light and flavorful -- more of a nibble.
But which one is the most delicious? We’ve put the two cities’ ducks in a beak to beak face-off.
Round 1: Versatility
The capital is most famous for its duck roasted over apple wood, but Nanjing can turn one duck into a wide variety of dishes.
Nanjing’s top billing is salted duck. The chef marinates the duck in salt, flower pepper and brine before boiling it in water and Chinese rice wine. It's served sliced.
Nanjingers can also pick up a sesame pastry made with duck fat as breakfast, order a basket of steamed soupy dumplings full of duck meat or down a bowl of duck-bone stock filled with deep-fried firm tofu, vermicelli noodles and thickened blood cubes for dinner.
“Nanjingers also eat roast duck,” says Nanjing-born chef Chen Hengbin, 46, who works for Nanjing Jinling Hotel on Hanzhong Road. Opened in 1983 as a state-run five-star hotel, Jinling Hotel’s salted duck has won praise from Chinese leaders such as Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zemin.
“Nanjing roast duck has crispy skin and tender meat, but it’s leaner than other roast ducks in China, probably due to the breed of duck in southern China,” adds Chen.
“When Nanjingers eat roast duck, we chop them up then pour over a light brown brine to make the meat more flavorful.”
Round 2: Cultural acceptance
“Every time [my] foreign friends come to China, especially the capital, this must be one of the meals to be eaten in a restaurant, preferably one that is still in a hutong, and where the ducks are slow roasted with apple wood,” says Lawrence Lo, a Shanghai-based food and wine critic who has lived in China, Europe and United States.
This is because, unlike many other foods in China, Peking duck can be eaten largely without bones, tastes like the heavily sauced Chinese food served in the West and looks like a mini wrap.
Unlike most Chinese food, Peking duck is roasted, a technique usually only found in the West.
In comparison, Nanjing’s duck dishes present more challenges for international diners. For one, the iconic salted duck contains bones, which Chinese like to suck on, and is eaten cold as an appetizer without extra condiments; while the duck blood soup contains bean-curd-like coagulated blood and duck organs.
Both tend to turn off customers who aren't from China.
“Eating poultry cold in the United States is typically something you do when you’re too lazy to reheat the leftovers,” says Kyle Gale, 28, an Arizonan who has lived in Nanjing since 2009.
Gale says Nanjing salted duck is more of an acquired taste.
“Nevertheless, these days I like Nanjing [salted] duck every bit as much as Peking roast duck.”

Round 3: Taste
The skin is crispy and sometimes caramelized, the meat is tender, boneless and the hoisin sauce is sweet.
“We don’t cut open the ducks when we cook,” says Yau Shuiwing, 36, chef from a popular Beijing restaurant Duck de Chine.
“Instead, we cut a small hole to extract the organs, then pump in boiling water when we hang the ducks to roast. This way, we can achieve ultra delicious duck skin, which is the best part of a Peking duck, while keeping the meat juicy and soft.”
Nanjing’s symbolic duck dish of salted duck is even more tender than Peking duck and more meaty in flavor, but compared to the aromatic and golden brown roast duck, its looks don’t reflect its taste. To tourists who have never tried it, it might appear bland and under prepared.
“The crispy and roasted skin of Peking duck is visually more appealing than the plain white skin of the Nanjing kind,” says Lawrence Lo.
But Lo considers Nanjing salted duck a great snack to go with a bottle of cold beer.

Round 4: Portability
Peking duckHot or cold? The choice is yours. Peking Duck is best eaten when it’s out-of-the-oven hot and aromatic. This makes it a great sit-down restaurant dish.
Although diners can easily find them in high-end restaurants and hotels, such as Jinling Hotel and InterContinental Nanjing, most of Nanjing’s duck dishes are great for quick bites. They’re convenient, hassle-free and extremely portable.
Diners on-the-go can shovel a duck-fat-sesame pastry or a few chunks of salted duck into any food container and they taste as good after an hour or two.
Smart Nanjingers have taken advantage of this and made salted duck a popular travel souvenir. Many supermarkets, retail stores and restaurants stock salted duck in portable and sealed vacuum packs.
They can be eaten directly from the pack or after a quick zap in the microwave.

Round 5: Entertainment value
To many, Peking duck’s draw lies in its dramatic dining experience, from watching a razzle-dazzle duck-cutting performance to making a duck wrap with their own hands.
This makes eating a plate of Peking duck as entertaining as it is delicious.
“Peking duck restaurants purposely allow chefs to cut the duck in the restaurant, where customers can see how the crispy duck is sliced,” says Lawrence Lo.
Peking duckWith Peking duck, it's all about theatrics. “Peking Duck is served with other trimmings, such as thin pancakes and well-known Hoisin sauce, which creates ‘theater’ in the dish,” adds Lo.
“In comparison, Nanjing duck dishes have no such theatrics.”
Final verdict: To international visitors, Peking duck still rules. And as the capital, Beijing dominates China’s international tourism scene.
But for anyone who wishes to appreciate the diversity of Chinese cuisine and explore what daily meals are like for ordinary Chinese, Nanjing’s salted duck, sesame pastries, duck blood soup and duck-meat dumplings are great starters.

In china they enphasize about a menu of duck very much because this menu has long time ago and this menu is the signuture of china.
ReplyDeletePeking duck is different from anywhere because the chelf are very meticulous in gastronomy.
Nanjing have many menu about duck peking duck is typical of china's Norther and nanjing duck are good reflection of the patette of chinese southerners.
The capital is most famous for its duck roasted over apple wood, but nanjing can turn one duck into a wide variety of dishes Nanjing can pick up a sesame pastry made with duck fat as breakfast and use duck bone to make noodle for dinner. But peking duck still most popular chinese dishes in the world peking duck can be eaten largrly without bone but nanjing duck, we chop them up then pour over a light brown bine to make more flavorful Nanjing duck is salted and terder than paking duck and more meaty in flavor but peking duck have colour and smell better than Nanjing.
I think no one is better than because they are different tasteand they very pay attention to cook eqully.
Menu about duck in chinese have cook for long time ago So I think It has valuable and should to tast very much.

DeletePeking duck in Nanjing and Beijing is a famous food in china. I see they love to eat it even in Thailand. I think people from Nanjing and Beijing prepare and prefer Peking duck differently because they are different eating culture. “Peking duck in Nanjing is a salt duck. The chef marinates the duck in salt, flower pepper and brine before boiling it in water and Chinese rice wine. It’s served sliced but in Beijing is duck roasted over apple wood” from the article that you can see difference about method cooking many reason make them difference such as the knowledge, livelihood, Region of residence. It same every country they can see people in every Region of residence have difference life. In Thailand the north of the people don’t eat Spicy food but the northeast eat Spicy food etc. The difference culture makes eating behaviors difference too.
Because Both Nanjing and Beijing are in China, The different culture has found a way to do about duck that are also different. And differrence of the Peking duck, it may be caused by breed of duck in southern and northern China. Such as Nanjing roast duck has crispy skin and tender meat. So cultural diversity makes life different. Although in the same country.

ReplyDeleteBecause the both cities are different in cultural. It is the capital culture and rural culture. Look at there are prepare differently. Beijing is the capital culture, for its duck will grilled with apple wood. And Peking duck will be within restaurant and hotel only. Look at be high-class. But Nanjing is the rural culture, can be duck made into a simple menu as salted duck. Beyond Nanjing can turn one duck into a wide variety of dishes for is choice to diners. salted duck in Nanjing it has sell at supermarkets, retail stores and restaurants. Because salted duck in portable and sealed vacuum packs. Its makes salted duck look at be low-class.
Peking duck is a very famous dishes in Beijing but the true capital of duck dishes is in Nanjing. Beijing and Nanjing prepare and cook Peking duck in the different way because they are have a different culture and they are have different about the breed of duck for example in Beijing the most famous dishes is roasted duck over apple wood but in Nanjing can turn one duck in a wide variety of dishes and the most famous is salted duck and it also more tender and more meaty in flavor than Peking in Beijing . For portability Peking duck in Beijing has to eat when it was hot and aromatic but in Nanjing they can eat from the pack or after a quick zap in the microware so it more portability than peking in Beijing. But if you eat Peking duck Beijing in restaurant chef will show you how to cook so you can see how the crispy duck is sliced this make eating Peking duck as entertaining as it is delicious. Finally the international visitor vote that they like Peking duck in Beijing more than Peking in Nanjing.

ReplyDeleteThe reason that both cities are doing it different is both culture isn’t the same. Beijing’s duck hasn’t any bones and it doesn’t fit to their city or they just don’t like duck with bones and its easier for tourists to eat a duck without bones. But Nanjing like to ferment their duck in salt and paper and flowers and put it in salt water which they use to boil the duck but some like it baked in salt too.
Both Nanjing and Beijing are in China but it was different because in round 1: Versatility- Beijing is most famous for its duck roasted over apple wood, but Nanjing can turn one duck into a wide variety of dishes and round 2: Cultural acceptance -Peking duck can be eaten largely without bones, tastes like the heavily sauced Chinese food served in the West and looks like a mini wrap but Nanjing’s duck dishes present more challenges for international diners. For one, the iconic salted duck contains bones, which Chinese like to suck on, and is eaten cold as an appetizer without extra condiments; while the duck blood soup contains bean-curd-like coagulated blood and duck organs and round 3: Taste-Nanjing’s symbolic duck dish of salted duck is even more tender than Peking duck and more meaty in flavor, but compared to the aromatic and golden brown roast duck, its looks don’t reflect its taste and the crispy and roasted skin of Peking duck is visually more appealing than the plain white skin of the Nanjing kind so different between Nanjing and Beijing that are culture , method because lifestyle and learning are not the same and about a material in both city can't find the same material so that why it make these different.

In my opinion,Beijing people focuses more on the look of the duck, that’s why it attracts more attention, while Nanjings people emphasize more on the taste. The roasted duck are prepared differently due to their different technique and different breed of the duck. That’s why they provide different tastes and looks. Form cultural point of view, Nanjings care more about taste but not the look, while Beijings like the duck looking tasty. Also, the ways of eating are different. Nanjing’s ducks can be tasty eaten cold, while Beijing’s ducks are better right off the oven.

The reason why Nanjing and Beijing prepare and prefer peking duck in different way. Beijing peking duck is very famous but in Nanjing they can make a variety of dishes and they duck have different type Nanjing their duck it’s leaner than other roast ducks in China. Both city have different method and taste. Beijing peking duck can be eaten largely without bones, tastes like the heavily sauce but Nanjing salted duck a great snack to go with a bottle of cold beer. Beijing crispy and roasted skin of Peking duck is visually more appealing than the plain white skin of the Nanjing kind. We can said both of peking duck are very delicious but they have different taste.

In my cultural point of view why people from both cities prefer peking duck differently might due to the different culture between Nanjing and Beijing that make the chefs of both cities cook a peking duck differently as we can see from the article that location of Beijing is in northern but Nanjing is in southern, so with the different location always have the different culture so this might be one of the main reason why they cook peking duck differently. Another reason is the different between the breed of ducks which the ducks in Nanjing when already roasted has crispy skin and tender meat and leaner than other roast ducks in China. These might be the one of the reason with the different breed so the chefs must prepare the different breed of ducks to get the best taste of it. For examples The Beijing get the best taste of the duck by roasted over apple wood but Nanjing get the best taste with a different way to cook and when they already cooked the taste is delicious as well. Both of them have different way to cook to make the typical of their cities.

ReplyDeleteBoth Peking duck in Nanjing and Beijing has different way of cooking the duck in to many type of menu, but why they have differently ways of eating it. Because of cultural between City life and Suburb life, and still have the same type of meal that they all eat. The only difference style of cooking in Nanjing and Beijing is Nanjing can invent many of menu in Peking duck but the menu that they invented mightn’t be as like theatrical but has more flavorful. Anyhow Peking duck in Beijing is also more accepted than in Nanjing causes in every restaurant have to have this Peking duck one of the most popular Chinese dishes.
Causes Nanjing and Beijing, like ducks are not the same because the local culture, but not the same. And with that, the local people, each with a different strain of duck species.

Both Nanjing and Beijing are in China, but the reason people from these cities prepare and prefer peking duck differently due to the culture. Nanjing has once been a capital of China, located in East part. While nowadays Beijing is a capital city, located in North. They both have a rich culture of their owns which is obviously explained why they cook the peking duck differently based on a purpose and expectation cooking. Plus, the previous name of Beijing was peking. Which is we why peking duck is more famous and we called it Peking duck.
ReplyDeleteSimilarly to Thailand, the way North people and South people cook are different because of products or ingredients are different due to climates and geography.

Duck has long been a famous dish for China. Peking duck is well-known because the preparation includes roasting the duck delicately with apple firewood by the chef. On the other hand, Nanjing duck is another famous and most ordered dish prepared by salting the thinly sliced meat. In presentation, the skin is salted, crispy but tender in the meat.

Both Nanjing and Beijing are in China but it was different because I think Beijing people care about the look of the duck more than Nanjing people that care about the taste. Beijing is most famous for its duck roasted over apple wood, but Nanjing can turn one duck into a wide variety of dishes because an ingredient in other city are different. That's the reason why Peking duck has the golden brown roast and look more appealing than the white skin of Nanjing duck.

People from Nanjing and Beijing prepare and prefer pecking duck differently because they have different between cultures and behaviors. After I read this article, I can know the cultures in Beijing from the cooking step of Pecking duck. How to make Pecking duck in Beijing is very complicated and you should be steady and calm because Pecking duck is hard to cook. The techniques for doing it, you have to hang the duck and shower it with the hot oil. So it can refer that the culture in Beijing, people is very delicate and cautious. Nevertheless, in Nanjing I can refer about culture that most of people in Nanjing should be create, fast and comfortable. Because when cooking Nanjing salted duck, it’s very easy way to cook and you can eat them in different ways such as soup, steam soup dumpling with duck meats, etc. I think both of them have good points in different way, it depends on cultural, geography, and life style in each place.

The differences in location between northern and southern China makes differences of duck species and differences of species makes differences way to prepare and to cook the duck so it makes the taste differences.
ReplyDeleteThe article refers that Peking duck beats Nanjing roast duck in popularity. Because of its taste and eating style which is more western than Nanjing roast duck. Even though, Nanjing’s duck has even tenderer and meatier in flavor than Peking duck, but it’s white plain skin makes it looks like under prepared. Moreover, Nanjing’s duck is eaten cold and served with duck blood soup contains with coagulated blood and duck organs which makes it harder for customers who are not from china.
From my point of view, Peking duck and Nanjing’s duck is even. I like both the way they cook their duck. It expresses the way they lived. Although, the culture is different or the breed of duck is different. But both of their ducks are delicious.

DeleteBecause Both Nanjing and Beijing are different method of making the pekking duck. For Nanjing, the Nanjing chef can turn one duck into a wide variety of dishes such as salted duck, roast duck, a basket of steamed soupy dumplings full of duck meat or down a bowl of duck-bone stock filled with deep-fried firm tofu, vermicelli noodles and thickened blood cubes for dinner. For Beijing, this capital is most famous for its duck roasted over apple wood and the Beijing chef do not cut open the duck when they cook and this way makes customers achieve ultra delicious duck skin, which is the best part of a Peking duck, while keeping the meat juicy and soft. Although Nanjing and Beijing are in China, they are different culture, lifestyle and language. I think it is depend on what taste that you like to eat. If you like a unique taste, you can go to Beijing to eat roast duck. If you like to eat ordinary and various dishes making from duck, you can go to Nanjing.
