For live ducks
- Choose ducks with smooth feathers, full feathers, and no down feathers inside.
- The breast of the duck should be round and plump, with a thick neck and belly skin.
- If the two wings of the duck can cross each other, it indicates a good duck with plenty of meat and easy to pluck.
For processed ducks
- Choose ducks with a uniform light yellow color, not too dark or bruised.
- When pressing the duck meat, it should feel firm and have elasticity.
- Do not choose duck meat that is soft or has a foul smell.

Prepare the duck meat
Buy pre-processed duck from the market. To eliminate the fishy smell of the duck, rub salt all over the duck, both inside and out.
Then, use a few crushed ginger slices and a little white wine to rub on the duck for about 3 – 5 minutes, rinse with water several times, and then cut the meat into bite-sized pieces.
Tips for cleaning the duck, no odor- Pluck the duck feathers cleanly to avoid the duck meat from being smelly.
- Soak and rub the duck with lemon, salt, or vinegar for 10 – 15 minutes, then rinse with water.
- You can also cut the duck into bite-sized pieces and briefly blanch them in boiling water with ginger and roasted shallots for about 5 minutes to remove the odor.
