The origin of the Peking Duck can be traced back to the 13th century when it was served during the Yuan Dynasty to the Chinese Emperor.
This is a traditional food in China that you can find in almost all authentic Chinese restaurants, not just because it is lip-smacking but also because it is the national dish of China.
It is a crispy roasted thinly sliced duck that is served with bean sauce, cucumber, onions, and pancakes. It is roasted in such a brilliant way that it has a crispy, crunchy exterior, and is considered a perfect Chinese food.
This classic cuisine in China takes a lot of effort to cook - Peking Duck is seasoned, then dried for an entire day, and finally cooked in a hung oven (open-air oven), so one can say that it is not an easy Chinese recipe and you cannot fully replicate it at home.
So to enjoy this popular China food item, you can go to a popular Chinese restaurant (you will definitely find this dish on the Chinese food menu) or if you are a great cook and want to try different Chinese food recipes, you can try Peking Duck at home too with the help of a cookbook or an Internet video. If you love eating gourmet Chinese food items, then you must try Peking Duck once.
