  • Let the duck rest for at least 15 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Use a sharp knife to thinly slice the duck breast against the grain for tender and flavorful pieces.
  • For a crispy duck skin, score the skin before roasting and rub it with salt and pepper.
  • Make sure to use a variety of colorful and crunchy vegetables for the salad, such as cucumbers, bell peppers, carrots, and radishes.
  • To enhance the flavors of the salad, add a flavorful dressing made with rice vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and honey.
