And our protagonist today is boiled duck, which is a very simple home-cooked dish. Because duck meat has a fishy smell, it will be a little different from boiled chicken.
White-cut ducks and white-cut dogs are popular in Zhanjiang, Guangdong, but they can also be eaten in the Pearl River Delta. The best thing for boiled duck is not duck meat, but duck soup for boiled duck.
Today, I want to share with you how my family cooked boiled duck. I hope you like it. Of course, there are many ways to boil ducks. If there is a better way, welcome to share.
White-cut duck
Ingredients: half duck, onion, ginger, pepper, galangal, garlic.
Seasoning: salt, soy sauce, peanut oil.
Detailed practice
1. Prepare half a duck, and of course the whole duck will do. Put the duck in cold water in the pot, add a spoonful of salt, minced onion and ginger, and finally sprinkle with a handful of pepper. Pepper can remove fishy smell and enhance fragrance. It would be best if the pepper particles were crushed.
2. Cook the duck on high fire, then turn to low fire, pour the soup on the duck, and finally cover it and cook for about 20 minutes. When the time is up, turn the duck over and continue to cook for 20 minutes. Don't use fire, the ducks cooked with fire will be more firewood.
When cooking the duck, now mix some sauce, chop up all the onions, ginger and garlic and put them in a bowl for later use. Put peanut oil in the pot, heat it, pour it into a bowl, and finally add a little soy sauce and stir well for later use. This sauce is ready. Of course, you can also use some seasonings you like.
It's time, stick a small hole in the duck leg with chopsticks. If there is no blood flow, it proves that the duck is cooked. Pick up the cooked duck and let it cool slightly. Don't pour cooked duck soup. This is a good thing. Can be used to soak rice, flour and pickles.
5. Put the slightly cooled duck pieces on the plate, and finally pour the prepared sauce on the duck meat. You can also eat them directly without watering or make them according to your own preferences. This simple and delicious boiled duck tastes good even if it is cooked. You can try it if you like.
