Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Carefully lower the whole duck into the boiling water and blanch for about 3-5 minutes, ensuring all sides are exposed.

Remove the duck from the boiling water and pat it thoroughly dry with paper towels, inside and out.
約5 分
調理のヒント: Ensure the duck is completely dry to achieve the crispiest skin.

In a small bowl, combine the five-spice powder, salt, white pepper, garlic powder, and ginger powder to create the marinade.

Brush the glaze all over the duck's skin. Repeat this step every 30 minutes for the next 2-3 hours while the duck air dries.
約3 時間
調理のヒント: Hang the duck in a cool, well-ventilated area or place it on a rack in the refrigerator to allow air to circulate around it. This drying process is vital for crispy skin.

Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Place the duck on a roasting rack set inside a roasting pan.
約15 分
調理のヒント: The rack allows air to circulate around the duck, promoting even cooking and crisping.

Roast the duck for 1 hour, then reduce the oven temperature to 160°C (325°F) and continue roasting for another 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 74°C (165°F) in the thickest part of the thigh.
約2 時間 30 分
調理のヒント: Periodically drain any accumulated fat from the roasting pan to prevent smoking and ensure crispiness.

Once cooked, remove the duck from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before carving.

調理のヒント: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful duck.
