Why Choose a Whole Duck?

Whole duck is a tasty and flexible meat that can enhance your cooking. Unlike chicken or turkey, the duck has a richer and slightly gamey flavour, making it great for special meals. You can slow-roast it for crispy skin or braise it for tenderness. Choosing whole duck gives you a deeper flavour that works well in many dishes, from Chinese Peking duck to French confit de canard.

1. Exceptional Taste and Texture

Duck meat is tender and juicy, offering a unique flavour that other poultry can’t match. Its high fat content under the skin keeps it moist, making it great for roasting and pan-searing. The flavourful fat can also be used to cook potatoes and vegetables, adding a tasty gourmet touch.

2. Versatile Cooking Options

With multiple cutting options, our whole duck can be prepared in various ways:

• Whole (Uncut): Ideal for roasting with crispy skin and aromatic seasoning.
• Cut 2 Pieces: Perfect for grilling or slow-cooking.
• Cut 4 Pieces: Suitable for stews and braised dishes.
• Cut 12 Pieces: Great for stir-frying and quick meals.
• Diced Medium: Best for curries, soups, and mixed dishes.

Nutritional Benefits of Whole Duck

Duck is a nutrient-dense protein source that offers several health benefits:

• High in Protein: Helps muscles grow and repair.
• Rich in Iron and Zinc: Important for a strong immune system and good health.
• Contains Healthy Fats: Duck fat is like olive oil, providing heart-healthy fats.
• Source of B Vitamins: Supports energy and brain function.
• Good Source of Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Benefits heart and brain health, making it a nutritious choice.

Cooking Tips for Perfectly Cooked Duck

1. Roasting for Crispy Skin

• Pat the duck dry and score the skin to allow the fat to render.
• Season with salt, pepper, and aromatic spices.
• Roast at 180°C for 1.5-2 hours, basting occasionally.
• Allow the duck to rest for 10 minutes before carving to retain juices.

2. Braising for Tender Meat

• Brown the duck pieces in a pan to seal in juices.
• Simmer in a broth with vegetables and spices for 2-3 hours.
• Serve with rice or mashed potatoes for a comforting meal.
• Braised duck is excellent for meal prep and reheats well, making it a convenient choice for busy households.

3. Stir-frying for Quick Meals

• Slice the duck into thin strips for fast cooking.
• Sauté with fresh vegetables, soy sauce, and garlic.
• Serve with steamed rice or noodles.
• Stir-fried duck pairs beautifully with hoisin sauce, sesame oil, or spicy chilli paste for an extra kick of flavour.

4. Duck Fat for Gourmet Cooking

• Rendered duck fat can be used for roasting potatoes, enhancing their flavour.
• It can also be used to make gourmet scrambled eggs or sauté vegetables.
• Duck fat is prized by chefs for its ability to create crisp, golden textures in cooking.
