Depression era how to roast a duck

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Whole duck

Directions

A domestic duck requires almost twice cooking as wild duck. A wild duck will take about 30 minutes in a hot oven and should always have strips of bacon or salt pork laid across the breast while roasting, to keep it moist. Both kinds of duck need thorough basting; wild ducks are not stuffed.

Many of the recipes in this collection did not contain amounts or oven temperatures. I have typed them in as they appear in the book, typos and all.
