side up on a rack in a large shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered,
at 350° for 2-1/2 to 3-1/4 hours or until a meat thermometer
reads 180° for the duck and 165° for the stuffing. Drain fat
from pan as it accumulates. Cover loosely with foil if duckling
browns too quickly. Cover and let stand for 20 minutes before
removing stuffing and carving. Meanwhile, for glaze, combine the
sugars, cornstarch and salt in a saucepan. Gradually stir in orange
juice, peel and hot pepper sauce until blended. Bring to a boil; cook
and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with duck.


Yield: 2-4 servings.
