What it is
This is a pre-cooked half duck, seasoned with aromatic spices. It is designed for convenience, offering a flavorful and tender duck experience without the need for extensive preparation. The duck is typically roasted or pan-fried to achieve a crispy skin and moist interior. It is a convenient way to enjoy duck at home.

To prepare, you can reheat the duck in an oven until the skin is crisp and the meat is heated through. Alternatively, you can pan-fry slices of the duck until golden and slightly crispy.
