For the duck:

- 1 whole duck
- 1 tablespoon of salt
- 1 tablespoon of Chinese five-spice powder
- 1 tablespoon of honey
- 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar

For the sauce:

- 1/4 cup of hoisin sauce
- 1/4 cup of honey
- 2 tablespoons of soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch
- 1/4 cup of water

To serve:

- 8-10 Chinese pancakes
- 1/2 cup of sliced scallions
- 1/2 cup of sliced cucumbers
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. Rinse the duck and pat it dry with paper towels. Mix together the salt and Chinese five-spice powder and rub it all over the duck, inside and out. Place the duck on a rack in a roasting pan and roast for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the skin is crispy and the meat is cooked through.
While the duck is roasting, make the sauce. In a small saucepan, whisk together the hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
When the duck is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes. Then, using a sharp knife, carve the duck into thin slices. To serve, heat the Chinese pancakes in a steamer or microwave until warm and soft. Spread a little sauce on each pancake, then add a few slices of duck, some sliced scallions, and some sliced cucumbers. Roll up the pancake and enjoy!
