How To make Shanghai Duck

x

8 lg Scallions,
Cut into 2-inch lengths 2 md Star anise, broken into
16 sections
2 sl Gingerroot,
Half-dollar size 5 lb Duck
1 c Dark soy sauce
1 c Light soy sauce
1 c Water
3/4 c Sugar.
Honey Put the scallions, star anise and gingerroot in a heavy pot. Place the duck, breast sideup in the pot. Mix the remaining ingredients and pour over the duck. Cover and bring to a boil. Simmer for about two hours or until tender, turning every half-hour. Remove duck from pan and place on a shallow dish, rub honey on duck, place duck in a 400 degree oven just until crispy...not too long. Remove and chop into small pieces. Reserve liquid and serve at the table as a sauce. Sometimes I thicken it a little but most of the time we just serve it as is.
