If the appearance of the braised pork knuckle satisfied most people's cravings for carbohydrates and fats, then when the Immortal Duck was served, most guests had their taste buds completely refreshed.
It's no exaggeration to say that none of the people present had ever tasted anything like it before.
They never had a clear concept of what "umami" truly was. So, what exactly is umami?
Most of them only knew that adding a bit of MSG, chicken powder, or sugar could enhance the umami.
But if you were to cook two dishes, one with chicken powder and one without, the vast majority of people probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference. Umami was always just a concept that existed in the mind.
However, this dish, Immortal Duck, truly gave their taste buds a lesson: Umami is undeniably real.
Everyone who tasted this dish felt invigorated, their bodies warming up.
