Duck

The difference between Peking duck and wild duck is so great that one could be led to believe that the only thing they have in common is their outward appearance. Peking duck has pale flesh whereas the meat of the wild duck is similar to venison and hare. Nevertheless, when roasting duck, of whichever variety, it should be placed in the very hottest oven. Cooking times vary with the type of duck you are preparing. Wild duck should be left underdone.
