Roasted duck with edamame

Roasted duck with edamame

Overview

When I was a child, my family raised ducks. I often ate duck eggs but not duck meat. Because ducks are raised to lay eggs and are not willing to kill them for meat except under special circumstances, the opportunity to eat duck meat is rare unless it is during the holidays. Recently, edamame has been on the market in large quantities. Fresh edamame is very delicious even if it is boiled in salt water. I remember when I was little, my mother would use fresh home-grown edamame and cook it with duck meat. The beans are cooked until soft and absorb enough of the meat juice, making them very delicious. The duck meat is blanched and stir-fried. It is bright red in color and not fishy or greasy.
