Cantonese-style Stewed Duck

Cantonese-style Stewed Duck

Cantonese-style Stewed Duck is a savory and flavorful dish that is a specialty of Guangdong cuisine. The duck is typically marinated in a rich combination of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and other spices before being slow-cooked with vegetables like Shiitake mushrooms, dried tangerine peel, and scallions. The long, slow cooking process results in tender, juicy meat that is infused with the aromatic flavors of the broth. Cantonese-style Stewed Duck is traditionally served as a main course during special occasions and family gatherings.
