The Saliva Chicken served by Yuan Zhou was able to stimulate one's appetite by its looks alone.
The Saliva Chicken was served on a peacock-styled plate, and the head of the peacock was slightly slanted toward the chest, looking like a peacock with its head lowered. That was where the chicken head and neck were placed.
The body of the peacock was where the chicken meat was placed, while the peacock tail was where the chicken feet were placed. The entire dish had the look of a resting peacock.
The chicken used was the little fragrance black-boned chicken, yet this chicken was also classified into three types. The one used by Yuan Zhou was one with dark skin, white flesh, and white bones.
Thus, the entire dish radiated a bluish-black color of the skin and tender white color of the meat and bones. On top of the chicken was a thin and glossy layer of red with some white sesames on it. That was the chili oil.
