Glutinous Rice Crispy Duck

Crispy Glutinous Rice Duck is a traditional dish primarily made with duck, belonging to the category of private-style cuisine. The main ingredient is home-raised duck meat, complemented by glutinous rice, ham sausage, dried shrimp, shiitake mushrooms, and other ingredients. It is prepared through a series of steps including deboning and marinating, stuffing and steaming, and deep-frying to achieve its signature crispiness. 
To prepare this dish, dice the duck meat along with fatty pork belly, ham, and shiitake mushrooms. Mix these ingredients with glutinous rice to create a flavorful filling, which is then stuffed into the duck skin. After steaming, the duck is deep-fried until its outer skin turns golden brown and crispy. The finished dish should be presented in its original duck shape, with a crispy exterior and a tender, chewy interior. The aroma of the meat and the fragrance of the rice blend harmoniously. Drizzling with Sichuan pepper powder and sesame oil will further enhance the depth of flavor. The core of this culinary technique lies in preserving the integrity of the duck skin while achieving a soft, succulent, and aromatic filling—a testament to the traditional cooking method’s ability to bring out the natural flavors of the ingredients.
