Chinese food is another of my favorite ethnic cuisine's to cook. It help's that we have a Chinese teenager living with us, to give me his honest opinion about how far off the mark I was with authenticity. I bought a frozen duck from Costco, my very first attempt at preparing duck and also my first time eating it too. I wanted to have sauce with the duck that any self-respecting Chinese family would serve with Peking Duck. Hoisin seemed to be my best bet for authenticity and I had all the ingredients on hand already. This is a super easy recipe to prepare.
This is a bottle of yummy Chinese goodness, just waiting to be put on your Peking Duck.
Don't worry, I'll show you how to make Peking Duck in another post.
