How to bake a duck with prunes in the oven? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Take a duck weighing no more than 1. 8 kg. It is advisable to buy chilled, since it is difficult to judge the freshness and quality of meat by frozen carcass. The duck should be light pink, with a neutral smell. If you take poultry, it should be young (less than a year) or it won't be suitable for baking. Use natural fermentation soy sauce.

If the duck is frozen, defrost it in advance. Remove the package and place it in the container on the lower shelf of the refrigerator 12 hours before cooking. Wash the duck under running water, remove the insides and feathers, if available. Roll the carcass on all sides with cool boiling water. Better 2 times. This is necessary so that the pores close, the skin does not crack when baking and becomes crisp.

To remove the oil that the dried fruits are treated with before selling, fill the prunes with warm, approximately 70 ° C, water. Do not use boiling water because prunes will boil. Stir it so that the water gets to all the cream. Drain through a sieve to avoid too much fluid.
