Li Ji Candied Duck Introduction
Li Ji Brown Sugar Duck in Pingtung boasts a unique flavor and excellent texture, having already won local acclaim. With over twenty years of history, "Li Ji Brown Sugar Duck" offers a variety of soy sauce duck delicacies, operated by the second generation of the Li family, Li Zuqin. The restaurant emphasizes a completely handmade cooking process, incorporating a unique herbal medicine package during the braising process. This technique results in a duck that is sweet yet not cloying, with a meaty texture that is resilient and satisfying. First, high-quality ducks are selected and slowly cooked in a large pot for one hour to reduce oil content. Then, a combination of herbal medicine, brown sugar, soy sauce, wine, ginger, and other seasonings is added, and the mixture is simmered over low heat. The braising soup and the duck's natural juices eventually "concentrate" into a rich sauce, which is repeatedly drizzled over the duck.
