Warm Salad of Duck with Sesame and Ginger

"Preserved stem ginger is one of my favourite ingredients and is very tasty combined with the sesame flavour. The duck can be replaced with an equivalent amount of chicken, beef or even pigeon breast."

  1. I was able to get stem ginger for this and make it tonight. It was good thank you MarieAlice, with the dressing a nice blend of sweet, sour and salty. I can't imagine where the other reviewer got the bitter flavour from-maybe it was from her salad leaves.
     
  2. I don't know what I did wrong, but this was very bitter. Sorry MarieAlice but I won't be making this again.
