Salted Duck
A pot of dark old stock simmers while a hand lifts a whole braised chicken out of it on a hook, sliced sauced beef fans out on the board, and a salted duck lies on a wooden platter beside it.
Meat and poultry simmered in a seasoned sauce or brine stock until the flavour is in, ready to eat as they are.
