  1. Whether braised duck is delicious or not, duck is very important. Generally, I would choose mallard duck, which is more fragrant. After buying the duck, clean it first.

  2. Boil the prepared duck. When cooking, open the lid and use a little more water to basically cover the duck. Boil for about a minute, turn off the heat, and wash the duck again.

  3. Put the washed duck into the pot, add water, add ginger and star anise, bring to a boil and add cooking wine. Cook over high heat for about 5 minutes, then continue to cook over medium heat for about 30-40 minutes. Be careful not to boil the water dry, leaving about half of it. The duck is almost done at this point.
