Shanghai Duck

"A delicious recipe I learned from my aunt. It brings the taste of the duck to perfection. Though a long winded recipe, it is simple and completely worth it! I personally love this with Chinese Steamed Bread."

directions

  • Put the scallions, star anise and ginger root in a heavy pot, on the top of your stove.
  • Place the duck, breast side up in the pot.
  • Mix the remaining ingredients and pour over the duck.
  • Cover and bring just to a boil.
  • Simmer for about two hours or until tender, turning every half-hour.
  • Pre-Heat Oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Remove duck from pan and place on a shallow baking dish.
  • rub honey on duck.
  • place duck in oven just until crispy -- this does not take long and should not be left alone.
  • Once crisp, remove and serve!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

From Canada, I was raised and taught to cook by my Grandmother. Originally she was from England, but married Italian and cooked the best from both worlds. Raising children through the depression, she really learned how to manipulate ingredients to taste and the value of a home grown garden. I mainly bake, and my husband, who was a chef for 5 years and on his way to the New York School of Culinary Arts does most of the meals, but now I find we are working together to bring our family amazing dishes.
