Instructions |
|
|
Remove fat from inside cavity of duck and carefully slice off tail and
oil glands on either side of tail. Rinse duck inside and out and dry
with paper towels.
|
|
|
Rub inside cavity with salt. Put duck on large tray and spoon vodka
over, rubbing all over duck. Leave 4 hours, turning from time to
time so all skin comes in contact with vodka.
|
|
|
Dissolve honey, maltose or maple syrup in hot water and brush
over duck. Hang to dry for 4-6 hours in front of window or fan to
speed process. ( I applied maple syrup 3X)

|
Roast 400 degrees for 30 minutes on rack, well above roasting
pan. Line pan with foil to produce more reflective heat and pour 1
inch of water in pan. Turn heat down to 350 degrees for 1 1/2
hours or until skin is golden brown. Put foil on wing tips and/or
legs if browning too quickly.
