🍗 How to Eat Guangming Squab
- Smell first：Before using your chopsticks, lean in and enjoy the aroma described here as lychee-wood roasting mingled with meat.
- Tear by hand：Use both hands to tear from the leg along the grain, preserving juices and fibers rather than cutting with a knife.
- Try the dips：Dip the first piece in pepper-salt to appreciate the crisp skin, then try garlic vinegar for a different tangy aroma.
