Duck in the sleeve - general principles and manufacturing methods
Those who can resist mega-calorie duck baked up the sleeve are true heroes. But it’s unlikely that there will be many such ardent supporters of diets. This is a real pleasure, the ruddy skin and soft tender meat will not leave anyone indifferent. And everything turns out thanks to the ancient method of preparing food - baking. The products are exposed to extreme heat from all sides, resulting in perfectly processed juicy meat.
The baking sleeve is very comfortable. With it, food will never be dry or half-raw. The sleeve is made of special cellophane that is resistant to high temperatures. When heated, this non-hazardous material does not emit harmful substances, and its usefulness is enormous. Products cooked in it are processed immediately with heat and steam, thanks to the ties that ensure density. You can bake using a sleeve not only in the oven, but also in a microwave oven or other devices that civilization provides us with. At the end of baking, the film can be cut to obtain an appetizing fried crust.

The baking sleeve is available in rolls; it must be measured according to the length of the bird, taking into account the distance for the ties (at least 20 cm). The edges are tied together, the sleeve with its contents is laid out on the frying pan with the seams up, it is better that it does not come into contact with the walls of the frying pan or oven (so that it does not burst due to a sudden change in temperature). There is no need to twist - the meat will be cooked moderately. Finally, we pull it out using a spatula.

Duck baked with potatoes in the oven in the sleeve
I'm looking for a tasty and easy-to-make dish that won't be a shame to put on a formal table... And so you don't have to bother with the side dish! This means that there is nothing better than a bird completely baked in the oven with a side dish. Here is a link to a recipe for duck with apples and a potato side dish, it is a little more difficult than the current one, fragrant chicken baked with fruit is also suitable. We dismiss the version of chicken with potatoes in the sleeve as a dish for any day, I cooked Jewish chicken with rice not so long ago, goose with prunes and duck with oranges - it already smells of the new year and Christmas. But duck with potatoes is just right for an ordinary Sunday reception for a small group of guests. There is no doubt that it will be delicious!
Compound:
- Duck - about 2 kg
- Potatoes - 7-8 tubers (about 1 kg)
- Onion - 1 piece
- Garlic - 2 cloves
- Salt - 1 level teaspoon
- Ground dark pepper - 1 teaspoon
- Spices, dried herbs (basil, coriander) - 1 teaspoon
- Soy sauce - 2 tablespoons
How to bake a duck completely in a sleeve with potatoes in the oven according to the usual recipe
Prepare the duck - wash it inside and out, dry it with a cardboard towel, remove the sebaceous gland located at the base of the tail, trim the tips of the wings and trim off excess fat from the neck and belly area. If necessary, scorch the remaining plumage. I have a beautiful tool for this - a household gas burner with a directed flame, it costs a penny, but is very necessary in the kitchen.
Directional flame gas burner
Finely chop the garlic, mix with a teaspoon of salt and a teaspoon of pepper. Rub the mixture given to us inside and out of the duck. Wrap the duck tightly in cling film and leave it in the refrigerator overnight (that is, after dark) .
Rub with spices, leave to marinate
The next day, coarsely chop the peeled potatoes.
Cut potatoes
Cut the onion into half rings, mix with potatoes, pour over soy sauce and sprinkle with spices and dry herbs.
Mix potatoes with onions and spices
Make frequent punctures in the skin with a toothpick over the entire surface of the breast and on the legs of the duck; the fat will be very rendered and the finished duck will have a narrow, crispy crust. Cut the duck down the middle of the breast and flatten it (as when making tapaka chicken). Cut a piece of about 70 cm from the baking sleeve, tie one side tightly. If you are working with a sleeve for the first time, then the advice is to first very much twist the sleeve, and then tie it tightly with the ties or clips included with the sleeve. Carefully push the duck into the sleeve, back down.
Place the duck on its back in the sleeve
Place the potatoes in the duck, like in a wicker, and carefully tie the other end of the sleeve.
Place potatoes
Place the package on a baking sheet with the duck side up - turning it over onto the potatoes and onions. Do not place it on the top shelf - the sleeve will inflate from the hot air. Bake the duck with potatoes in the sleeve at 190-200 degrees. The time can be approximately calculated as follows: 50 minutes to an hour for any kg of weight. I have a very young duck weighing less than 2 kg, it will take me an hour and a half to make. 10-15 minutes before the end of baking, cut the sleeve and open the back of the duck.
Bake at the rate of 1 hour per 1 kg of duck
And continue baking until done and golden brown. The smell in the kitchen is amazing! Test doneness by piercing the duck with a wooden skewer in several of the meatiest parts. If the released juice is one hundred percent clear, the oven can be turned off. The potatoes are soft, they are also one hundred percent ready.

Duck in a sleeve in the oven
How do you cook duck in the oven? Do you stuff it with apples, rice, cabbage? Or is tinkering with the inside not your thing? In this case, take note of the usual dish - duck marinated in soy sauce with honey. Preparations are actually made without your role. The baking sleeve and oven will do all the work for you.
Duck in a sleeve baked in the oven has a number of advantages: the meat cooks relatively quickly, retains a lot of water and comes out indescribably juicy, and you don’t have to wash a whole mountain of dishes. Rub the carcass with spices, marinate, pack in a sleeve and place in the oven for 2 hours. The gala dinner will be ready at the appointed time!
Ingredients
- duck – whole carcass (2 kg)
- soy sauce – 3 tbsp. l.
- salt – 1 tsp.
- mixture of ground peppers – 1 tsp.
- fresh ginger – 2 cm
- lemon juice – 1 tbsp. l.
- honey – 2 tsp.
- garlic – 3-4 teeth.
Manufacturing
Before marinating, you need to prepare the carcass: remove any remaining feathers and fluff, singe it with a gas burner as necessary, wash and dry. I cut off the last phalanges of the wings, which contain virtually no meat and glow when baked. I also removed the sebaceous gland from the tail, which gives off a nasty smell when baked. The neck can be cut off or thrown away, at your discretion.
For the marinade, I combined in a small bowl: soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and garlic, passed through a press (you can use granulated). I mixed all the ingredients with a whisk until the honey and salt dissolved one hundred percent.
I rubbed the resulting fragrant consistency onto the carcass, inside and out.
I packed it in a baking sleeve and poured the remaining sauce into it. I left it to marinate for at least 4-6 hours (preferably overnight (that is, in the dark ) in the refrigerator.
Then I sent the duck into the oven, heated to 160-180 degrees - the bird must lie breast down. Bake for 2 hours. After the designated time, I carefully cut the sleeve and pierced the large joint with a knife to make sure the meat was ready. If clear liquid leaks out, you can turn off the oven.
Duck cooked in a sleeve in the oven is very tasty, soft and juicy, rosy, smells of ginger and honey. All that remains is to divide into portions and serve. Buckwheat with mushrooms, mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, and other pickles are suitable as a side dish. Don’t rush to pour out the rendered duck fat; it’s perfect for frying potatoes.
