Tips:
Poetry heart phrase:
1: Cook the duck liver with cold water, so that the taste of the cooked duck liver is delicate. If you wait for the water to boil and then add the duck liver, the duck liver will shrink immediately and become astringent and tight.
2: Put the blanched duck liver into the brine broth and boil it, don't keep cooking it. Then simmer until cool, let the duck liver taste. (The duck liver at this time is also the braised duck liver, which can be taken out and sliced and eaten with your favorite seasoning)
