一直以来，扬州人对吃是很讲究的。一年到头，漫步扬城街头巷尾，卖老鹅的熟食摊点随处可见，在熟食摊点上，老鹅是分开卖的，而且价格也不同，通常分为鹅头（连着颈部）、鹅肉、鹅爪翅、鹅肫肝、鹅肠和鹅血。一般来讲，当你选好所要的鹅的部位以后，老板会从厨柜中拿出一只整鹅（内脏已掏空），放到案板上，首先一刀从颈部下去，把鹅头和鹅身分开，再将鹅从胸膛部位一分为二，随便你要半边、前夹或后夹，老板会刀刀准确地把它剁成大小差不多的鹅肉块，随即装进食品袋，倒上鹅油，浇上老鹅卤汁，最后用塑料绳扎紧袋口，回家后便可食用了。

Yangzhou people have always been very particular about food. All year round, as you wander along the streets and alleys of Yangzhou, cooked-food stalls selling old brined old goose can be found everywhere. At these stalls, the goose is sold in separate cuts at different prices.The parts usually include goose head (with neck attached), goose meat, goose claw wings, goose gizzard liver, goose intestines and goose blood. Generally, after you pick the goose parts you want, the vendor will take a whole goose (with internal organs removed) from the brine cabinet,place it on the cutting board, and first cut through the neck to separate the head from body.Then the goose is split into two halves from the chest. Whether you want half a goose, front clip or back clip, the vendor will accurately chop it into goose pieces of similar size with a knife, then put it into a food bag, pour goose fat, pour the brine sauce, and finally tie the mouth of the bag tightly with a plastic rope, so it can be eaten when you go home.
