Tasty Facts
– Since the duck has dense meat, it is recommended to marinate the duck in spices, mayonnaise or marinade for 1-3 hours before frying, so that after frying the duck is juicy and soft. You can withstand a piece of duck or fillet in the following marinades (per 1 kilogram of duck):
– balsamic vinegar – half a glass, soy sauce – half a glass, salt and pepper – marinate the duck for 10 hours;
– salt, pepper, 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise – marinate for 2 hours;
– ginger root, 2 onions, half a glass of white wine and 1 teaspoon of vinegar, thyme, cloves, red pepper – marinate for 4 hours, stirring every hour;
– 1 lemon, 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of honey, 1 tablespoon of mustard, 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, curry and black pepper – heat the mixture until the honey dissolves and soak the duck in this marinade for 3 hours;
– 2 cups of Coca-Cola, half a glass of strong coffee, half a glass of vodka, apple cider vinegar – 1/4 cup, 3 garlic cloves and 2 onions – marinate the duck for 24 hours in the refrigerator.
– If the duck is with skin, then oil should not be added to the pan. The skin of the duck during frying will release a lot of fat, which will be enough for frying.
– For quick frying, it is recommended to take the largest and fattest parts – they will be softer without pickling.
– When choosing a whole duck, pay attention to the characteristics of the carcass – the legs should not be too short (otherwise there is a risk of buying a duck stuffed with hormones), the skin color is uniform, the smell is not sour.
– The duck is almost always sold with poorly scorched feathers, so it is recommended to scorch the duck before frying at home: using a gas stove, candles or matches. It should be substituted over the fire that place of the skin of the duck, where the pieces of feathers remained – and wait for them to be completely burned.
– If you bought a whole duck, the tail should be removed when frying, because when frying, it will have an unpleasant odor, which will saturate all other parts of the duck.
