This Asian Tea Glazed Duck Breast is the perfect dish to celebrate the Lunar New Year. The glaze is seasoned with our Asian Tea Rub, combining bold, pine-smoked Lapsang Souchong tea with hints of cinnamon, pepper, ginger, orange and brown sugar. The glaze is easy to put together and the sweet and smoky flavors are balanced with a bit of sour from tamarind paste. We served the duck on a bed of leek and celery root puree alongside crunchy fennel slaw. We were lucky enough to have a duck cooking coach on hand, thanks Scott! The result was a perfectly cooked breast with a thin and even layer of crispy fat on the outside. Follow the cooking instructions closely and you will enjoy the results. This meal will set the tone for a spectacular 2020. Happy New Year!
