Tonight's dinner plan is for duck! I've always wanted to try it in a crock pot, but never found a recipe that gave me any faith it would turn out. I'm soooo excited! My friend Lynne raises them and they are much leaner than grocery store ducks, so sadly I don't get as much fat usually.

It is meant to be dried before cooking (that's why you see the ducks hanging in the windows all over Chinatown). Also, the accompaniment is not plum sauce, it is hoisin sauce. Plum sauce is too sweet and tangy for this dish.

I've found that a lot of traditional crockpot recipes go overboard with the liquid and the meat falls apart, or begins to all taste alike (like the broth, wine, etc). In this case, I wanted the duck to kind of dry out, which is why I elevated it Stephanie ODeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08618710485017373256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-50156220377954853142008-12-19T07:29:00.000-08:002008-12-19T07:29:00.000-08:00Hi- I am new to your site, and I am wondering abou...Hi- I am new to your site, and I am wondering about water.

Place the strips in the bottom of the crock cross-wise, then set the meat on top. The edges of foil should drape over the top edge of the crock.
