INSTRUCTIONS
Put all liquid ingredients and sugar in a tall stock pot and bring to boil.
Add duck and reduce heat. When boiling again, turn down to a simmer and
skim. Add the rest of the remaining ingredients, except bok choy. Taste for
seasoning. It should have an inherent sweetness to the liquid. If not, add
more brown sugar. Simmer slowly for 2 to 3 hours, or until duck is very
soft. For the last 10 minutes of cooking, add the bok choy. Carefully
remove duck and bok choy. Strain the liquid and reduce until a light syrup
is achieved. Glaze duck and garnish with sliced scallions. This recipe
yields 4 servings.
