'''Tea-smoked Duck''' (Simplified Chinese: 樟茶鸭; Traditional Chinese: 樟茶鴨; Pinyin: ''Zhāngchá yā''; also '''Zhangcha Duck''' or camphor-tea smoked duck) is a Sichuan preparation in which marinated duck is smoked with tea leaves and aromatic materials traditionally associated with camphor-wood or camphor-scented leaves, then steamed or finished so the meat is fragrant, mahogany-hued, and sliced for serving. It is '''not''' [[Peking Duck]] (北京烤鸭), which is oven-roasted for crisp skin and carved with pancakes, and '''not''' [[Nanjing Salted Duck]], which is salt-cured rather than tea-smoked.<ref name="wp">[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhangcha_duck English Wikipedia]</ref>
 
== Characteristics ==
 
Skin and flesh take a deep brown smoke tint; aroma is tea-smoky and spicy-marinated. Served sliced, often at room temperature or warm, with dipping salt or sweet bean accompaniment in some banquet settings.
 
== Ingredients (overview) ==
 
Whole duck, marinade (salt, spice, wine), smoking medium of tea leaves plus aromatic wood/leaves (camphor-related materials in classic naming—modern kitchens may adapt for availability and safety; treat exact smoking fuel lists as soft/variable). Distinct from roast [[Peking Duck]].
 
== History and culture ==
 
Sichuan banquet repertoire; the name 樟茶鸭 references camphor and tea smoking. Soft/folk stories tying the dish to a single Chengdu restaurant era are commercial lore. English menus say "tea-smoked duck" or "Zhangcha duck." See [[Sichuan Food]].
 
== Serving and variations ==
 
Banquet cold/warm platter or restaurant specialty. See [[Sichuan Food]], [[Peking Duck]], and [[Nanjing Salted Duck]].
