*1 duck, 4 -5 lbs. (1800-
2250 g)
*4 T. honey
*3 T. sweet bean paste or
Hoisin sauce
*3 T. sugar
*0.25 c. water
*1 T. sesame oil
*12 mandarin pancakes or TaiWanese steamed turnovers
*0.5 c. shredded green onions
Method:
1. Use ample hot water to
rinse and soak duck about
5 minutes; wipe dry. Rub
honey over skin of duck
then hang in a ventilated
place to dry for 3 to 6
hours. Crispiness and
color is determined by
dryness. The drier the
skin, the crispier and
better color it will be
after baking.
2. Put duck on rack, back
side up, then place on
middle shelf of oven.
Roast at 350F-400F
1 hour or until cooked
and golden; turn over
during roasting.
3. Cook until thick then
spread on a pancake; put
in one portion of green
onions and meat, then
roll up pancake. Follow
same procedures for the
other 11 portions.
Serve.
