and another way to make whole chicken...chinese salt baked

[David Chang]

recipe here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbM4kSmRIco&t=10s

if you go to a chinese restaurant that roasts meats, this chicken is usually hanging next to the roast duck wrapped in parchment paper..

How is the texture of the skin when finished?

it's thin and jelly, some parts unnoticeable, some parts too thick and rubbery, like the fatty part around the cavity.  but it's not as nice as hainanese chicken skin, which i think is the gold standard when it comes to steamed asian-style chicken..

the dish is "hainan" but it's more common in thailand, malaysia and singapore. and the main attraction is the chicken, but what i think is even better is the rice. it's cooked in broth and chicken fat. you can eat this rice alone with nothing else and walk away happy..
