Remove duck from bag, and remove neck and giblets from body cavity. Rinse under running water and pat dry. Wash work surfaces and utensils after handling raw meat.

Cooking

Cooking time for whole duck is approximately 60 minutes per kg (30 min. per lb) or until internal temperature reaches 82 °C (180 °F). Internal temperature should be taken at the thigh joint.

Oven

  • Preheat oven to 180 °C (350 °F).
  • Season the skin and the cavity of the duck with salt & pepper.
  • Add a mirepoix of vegetables (carrots, onion, garlic, coarsely chopped celery) and a bouquet garni (thyme, parsley, juniper berries, whole pepper, cloves, bay leaf) in the duck cavity (optional)
  • Place duck on a rack in an oven-safe broiling pan, breast-side up.
  • Cover and cook for 2 hrs. Remove cover and cook another 30 min. until skin is golden and crispy.
  • When the duck is fully cooked, legs should come off easily and the juices should run clear.

Tips and tricks

For crispy skin, place the duck in a large pan slightly hollow and, depending on time available, refrigerate it for 1 to 2 days, without covering, to dry the skin thoroughly before cooking.
