“PEKING” DUCK PARTY
Crisp, lacquered Peking duck is a beloved restaurant dish, with good reason.
It makes a delicious hands-on meal (you roll up the meat in mu shu pancakes
with tangy hoisin sauce), but preparing it is traditionally a long, complex
process. Our shortcut, made with duck breasts, delivers big flavor and all of the
fun—in under an hour. Invite friends to share in the feast. Start the evening
off with a pitcher of whiskey cocktails—a festive punch with punch—and
end with cups of green tea and sliced tropical fruits.
