Stuff, and Things

In name, this is my personal blog. In practice, it's more of a multifandom blog with everexpanding scope. The five pillars holding up this mighty fandom edifice are SuperWhoLock (incl.merlin,torchwood) , Valve (Portal/Half Life), Tolkien, The Avengers , and Homestuck.you will also find, in no particular order of ranking : Game of Thrones, IT crowd, Firefly, Invader Zim, stargate, star trek, and whatever else i feel like blogging. I also read an insane amount, so you'll see a fair amount of that. and if i ever get around to actually finishing anything, I'll post random short stories and fanfics. this blog is 99% reblogs, so unless otherwise indicated, none of it is mine ( will be removed at content creator's request). in days of yore, i was fractured-atlas

Apeldoorn’s Asian Duck

Both poultry and Appeldoorn’s Tea are staples in our home, but not two things we have ever thought to combine. Enter Lindsay, our guest chef who also happened to stop by when I was making this cake and offer me some pro tips! If you find yourself wondering what to do with your Appeldoorn’s Tea this month (a problem we don’t have), she has an idea all cooked up for you.

Apeldoorn’s Asian Duck

INGREDIENTS ·         6 cups water ·         ½ cup Apeldoorn’s House Blend Black Tea ·         3” piece of ginger, roughly chopped ·         6” piece of cinnamon ·         2 star anise ·         1 tablespoon black peppercorns, crushed ·         3 cloves garlic, minced ·         2-3 green onions, chopped ·         4 tablespoons brown sugar ·         ¼ cup soy sauce ·         1 whole duck or 4 duck breasts

DIRECTIONS Combine water, tea, ginger, cinnamon, star anise, and peppercorns in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Turn off heat, add the garlic and green onions, and let steep for 30-45 minutes.. In a large glass or plastic container, combine the tea, brown sugar, and soy sauce, and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.   Reserve 1 cup of the liquid and use the rest to marinate the duck/duck breasts for 4-6 hours. Remove duck from the liquid 1 hour before cooking. Rinse and pat dry. Prepare the duck/duck breasts to your liking, using the reserved marinade to baste the bird or as a base for sauce.

Enjoy!
