　　The sauce-flavored duck from Changde is also quite famous. Changde sauce-flavored duck is made exclusively from laying ducks from the Dongting Lake area, combined with over 30 types of traditional Chinese medicinal herbs, more than 10 kinds of spices, and refined through over 10 meticulous processes. It boasts a spicy, savory, and crispy flavor with a long-lasting aftertaste. Currently, Changde sauce-flavored duck is a bestseller in Beijing, Tianjin, Shenzhen, and other parts of the country. However, in Zhuzhou, Changde sauce-flavored duck is not as well-known as Liling sauce-flavored duck.

　　The method of making sauce-flavored duck involves splitting the whole duck flat, then curing and braising it. The finished product has a deep red color and a rich, savory flavor, making it an excellent dish to accompany alcohol. Currently, this dish has been improved multiple times by chefs, with an added roasting process during production, resulting in a crispier, more fragrant, and uniquely delicious taste.

　　Duck Overlord from Anxiang in Changde is very popular in Zhuzhou. There is a shop called Anxiang Duck Overlord on Renmin Road, where duck necks, duck skeletons, and duck offal have been bestsellers for many years—you can imagine how good they taste. There is also another shop bearing the name Anxiang Duck Overlord on Lusong Road, which has consistently enjoyed good business.
