Steamed Chinese Preserved Duck Leg 蒸臘鴨腿

This Chinese preserved duck leg 臘鴨腿 is one of our favorites. Raw duck leg is first salted down with spices and chinese rice wine, then hung to slowly dry under the sun. Wonderfully dense textured, intensely concentrated duck meat flavor, infused throughout with a delectably fragrant oil.
