Wild Ducks
Ingredients
Directions
The book gives no oven temperature. The 400°F (200°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.
Pluck and wash the ducks thoroughly with warm water after drawing them.
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Roast the ducks for half an hour.
Slice the breast when serving and squeeze lemon juice over it.
Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
