slack: unforgiving — the breast goes dry and stringy in the same pot that made the thighs perfect, and there is no reversing it
washing-up: the slow cooker crock, the saucepan, a sieve to strain the lou sui, a jar to keep it in
keeps: 3 days — meant to be eaten cool, so it loses little; keep the master sauce in a jar of its own
step: rest 20 min, brush with sesame oil, chop
