Mandarin Duck (((Authentic)))
"This is one of the most complicated Chinese dishes to do, because of its 4-part preparation process. Mandarin Duck is also one of the most delectable Chinese dishes you'll ever eat! Many restaurants simply fry commercial pressed duck & then top it with a thick brown sauce. This recipe gives you the authentic procedure, complete with all the steps. Do yourself a favor & TAKE NO SHORTCUTS! It's well worth the effort!..."
