A Simplified Peking Duck
- 1 large duck giblets removed
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cinnamon ground
- 1 1/2 tablespoons ginger ground
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons peanut oil
- Bring a pot of water, large enough to hold the duck, to a boil.
- Remove from heat and plunge duck in the water for 5 minutes.
- Remove and pat dry.
- Combine the rest of the ingredients in a small saucepan and bring just to the boil.
- Off heat, allow mixture to cool to room temperature.
- Liberally coat the duck with the mixture and let it sit at room temperature for 3 hours so that the coating dries out.
- Place duck on a rack, breast side up in a preheated 350F (180C) oven for 2- 2 1/2 hours.
- Roast until skin is crisp and brown.
- Check occasionally and regulate temperature so that the coating does not burn.
