I’m on a mission to buy my first Chinese Cleavers Part 3 Exploring HongKong to see how all kinds of chefs & workers use a cleaver. A good Chinese cleaver is honestly one of the most versatile knives you can own.  In reality a cleaver is multiple tools in one. You can:     * Slice meat paper-thin.     * Dice vegetables.     * Mince garlic and ginger.     * Crush garlic with the side.     * Tenderize meat with the flat.     * Scoop food into a wok or bowl.     * Even use the spine to crack open things like lemongrass or shellfish  However diving more into this; each style of cleaver can then be even more specialized as I saw meat butchers, fishmongers, vegetable owners, fruit seller & regular workers all use a cleaver but specialized for the task at hand. One very specialized cleaver is the Pian Pi Dao 片皮刀 used for Peking Duck. & it’s designed with a long, narrow, and exceptionally sharp blade with one goal: precision slicing without tearing the delicate, crispy skin.  @mott32hk is one of the most celebrated Asian restaurants in the world & their AppleWood Roasted Peking Duck has been a signature of theirs since inception. 42 day dry aged, roasted, carved tableside, multiple accompaniments… it’s a lot of work for one dish. This is why they specifically teach their chefs on using the cleaver in serving this dish.  With multiple locations around the world; it’s also no wonder why Mott32 is a dining partner of @cathaypacific with their meals available on their Business Class flights & also in their award winning lounges in Hong Kong. After seeing the many different uses; I was ready to go find my cleavers  Stay tuned for part 4 as I visit the most famous cleaver maker in Hong Kong & the world.  In partnership with @DiscoverHongKong @Cathay Pacific ✈️  #chef #knife #eating #chinesefood #asianfood
