Recurso Premium
Peking Duck offers a complex interplay of flavors, primarily characterized by crispy skin, succulent meat, and aromatic accompaniments.
The crispy skin is achieved through meticulous preparation, often involving air-drying and glazing with maltose syrup. The meat is tender and rich, offering a savory counterpoint to the sweet and crunchy skin. Typically served with thin pancakes, scallions, cucumber, and sweet bean sauce (hoisin sauce), each element contributes unique textures and tastes.

Skin Crispness
The key to authentic Peking Duck is the incredibly crispy skin. Ensure the duck is thoroughly dried before roasting and that the glazing is applied evenly.
Pancake Technique
Warm the pancakes slightly before serving to make them more pliable and easier to wrap. Avoid overfilling the pancakes to prevent them from tearing.
Sauce Application
Use a small brush or spoon to apply a thin layer of sweet bean sauce to the pancake before adding the duck and vegetables. Too much sauce can overpower the other flavors.
Enjoy Immediately
Peking Duck is best enjoyed immediately after carving to savor the crispy skin and warm meat. Leftovers can be used in stir-fries or soups.
