There is a well known Chinese dish known as 手撕鸡 (shǒu sī jī) or 'hand torn chicken' and this isn't it.

This is 手撕鸭 (shǒu sī yā) or 'hand torn duck', which I've never heard of, but strange times call for strange dinners. The half quacker was braised with shallots, garlic, chilli, star anise and tangerine peel for a long time, then served with rice and 湖南酸菜 (hú nán suān cài ) or "Hunan pickled vegetables".

Attrition food, but tasty.

I also garnered lots of fat and bones to be rendered or made into stock tomorrow.
