Drunken Duck in Beer
This savory and aromatic Beer-Braised Duck with Root Vegetables is a hearty, flavorful dish that brings together tender duck, earthy root vegetables, and a rich, spiced broth. The duck is first blanched and marinated in Chinese cooking wine, salt, sugar, and pepper for depth of flavor. Pan-frying the duck renders out its fat, creating a crispy skin while infusing the dish with rich duck oil. Aromatic ingredients like scallions, ginger, garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, and bay leaves add warmth and complexity, while chili peppers bring a subtle heat. The addition of beer creates a robust, slightly tangy broth, enhanced by light soy sauce and a splash of vinegar for balance. Root vegetables—potatoes, radishes, sweet potatoes, and yams—soak up the delicious flavors as they simmer to perfection. A final sprinkle of wolfberries adds a touch of sweetness and color. Perfect for family dinners, this dish is best enjoyed with extra broth, as requested by loved ones! Comforting, flavorful, and satisfying—it's a must-try for duck lovers.
