Food Tip
Most food borne pathogens thrive at room temperature or in warm water. Use your refrigerator to thaw foods by moving them from the freezer to the refrigerator one or two days before you plan to cook them. An alternative method for thawing is the microwave oven. However, if thawing is done in the microwave oven, the thawed food must be cooked immediately afterward.

Mama Leah's Roast Duck With Orange Sauce Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Wash the duck, dry it, and make sure to remove any remaining
pinfeathers. Pull away and discard any loose pieces of fat. Place
the peeled orange inside the cavity. Sprinkle the outside of the duck
lightly with salt and garlic powder. Rub the salt and garlic into the
skin but do not prick the skin.

Line the bottom of roasting pan with aluminum foil to catch to grease
as it melts. Place the duck on a rack in the roasting pan.

Cook in the preheated oven for 1 hour.

In the meantime, in a bowl, mix together the brown sugar and
cornstarch. In a saucepan, place the mixture together with the orange
juice, orange rind, lemon juice, and the orange liqueur, if desired.
Stir well and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce to a simmer,
stirring constantly until the mixture loses its cloudiness and
thickens slightly.

Remove the duck from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 to 15
minutes. (Do not turn off the oven.) Split the duck in half using
poultry shears or a sharp knife. Remove the breastbone. Once you
split the duck, you will find it easy to gently pry the breastbone
away from the meat. Drain off any accumulated fat from the roasting
pan. Place the duck halves on the rack, skin side up. Brush the duck
with the orange sauce and reserve the remaining sauce to serve at the
table.

Roast the duck for another 30 to 40 minutes. When done, the skin
should be very crisp and browned. Serve the duck surrounded by the
orange rounds and garnished with parsley. Pour the warm orange sauce
into a gravy bowl and pass around. This duck goes very nicely with
any rice dish. Makes 2 to 3 servings.

ADVICE FROM MAMA: For a very fancy variation, in a small saucepan,
heat 1/3 cup of orange liqueur. Place the roasted duck halves on a
preheated serving platter, decorate, and pour the heated liqueur over
the duck. Strike a match and light the liqueur in the bottom of the
platter. Carry the duck flambe to the dinning table to a chorus of
ooohs and aaahs.
For an exotic variation, try mixing together 1/3 cup of honey, 1/3
cup of orange juice, and 1 teaspoon of curry powder. Season the duck
to taste as usual. Apply half of the sweet, spicy mixture to the
bird. Roast in the preheated oven as above. Periodically baste the
duck with remaining mixture. This delicious coating on the duck will
have you dreaming of warm nights in Kashmir.
