Cuisine in Wuzhen - Wuzhen Braised Duck (乌镇酱鸭)
Wuzhen’s most iconic dish features duck marinated in a rich, complex soy-based sauce with spices like star anise and ginger. Slowly braised until the meat is tender and the skin turns a dark, glossy mahogany, it achieves a perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet flavors. Unlike typical roasted duck, this version is uniquely moist and deeply aromatic, with the sauce penetrating every fiber. Served at room temperature, it’s a celebrated local specialty often enjoyed as an appetizer or paired with rice, embodying the refined, humble culinary heritage of the Jiangnan water towns.

Cuisine in Wuzhen - Auntie's Cake (姑嫂饼)
This unique Wuzhen pastry is a delicate, square shortbread with a fascinating legend. Unlike flaky pastries, it has a crumbly, melt-in-your-mouth texture from a blend of glutinous and regular rice flours, mixed with lard, sugar, and crushed walnuts or sesame. The taste is subtly sweet and fragrant, not overpowering. Its name, meaning “Sisters-in-Law Cake,” originates from a folk tale of family rivalry. As a traditional snack passed down through generations, it represents local history and is perfectly enjoyed with a cup of Chinese tea for a genuine taste of Wuzhen’s home-style culture.
