- 1/2 Tbsp Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Perilla Oil (for nutty aroma)

- 1 Tbsp Gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)
- 1 Tbsp Fish Sauce (for umami)
- 1 Tbsp Plum Extract (for sweetness)

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare your ingredients: have the smoked duck breast ready and wash the fresh scallion thoroughly under running water.
Step 2
In a bowl, combine all the dressing ingredients except for the sesame seeds: gochugaru (1 Tbsp), fish sauce (1 Tbsp), plum extract (1 Tbsp), vinegar (1 Tbsp), soy sauce (1 tsp), sugar (1/2 Tbsp), perilla oil (1 Tbsp), and black pepper. Whisk them together to create the dressing. Finely chop the prepared scallion and add it to the dressing. Gently toss to coat the scallions evenly, ensuring they remain crisp.
Step 3
Heat a pan over medium heat. Add the smoked duck breast and cook until golden brown on one side. If there’s excess oil, you can carefully drain it with paper towels for a cleaner result.
Step 4
Flip the duck breast and cook the other side until golden brown and slightly crispy. Since smoked duck is pre-cooked, the goal here is to achieve a nice sear and texture.
Step 5
Once cooked, slice the smoked duck breast into bite-sized pieces and arrange them attractively on a serving plate. Serving while warm enhances the flavor.
Step 6
Finally, generously top the sliced smoked duck with the prepared spicy and sweet scallion salad. Sprinkle with sesame seeds for a finishing touch. Enjoy the delightful combination of the savory smoked duck and the zesty, refreshing scallion salad!
