Roasted Goose

Roast Goose (“Shao Er” in Chinese), originating from the roasted duck, is one of the traditional hot dishes in Guangzhou. The best geese to roast are medium-sized and small black ones from Qingyuan, which is north to Guangzhou. The wings, feet and entrails being removed, the body is then blown, besmeared with five fragrant seasonings, sewed in stomach, shortly boiled in water, poured with cold water, besmeared with sugar juice, air-dried and preserved, and then hung and rolled in the oven or above the flame.


Then it can be served in pieces, seasoned flavor, crisp skin, and rich and tasty meat.


There are many roasted-goose shops in Guangzhou, among which the most famous is Yuji in Changdi and Shenjing in Changzhou island of Huangpu District.
