4 slices peeled fresh ginger
3 star anise

Put half the leek bunches, all fermented black beans, ginger, star anise, five-spice powder, salt, and thick soy together with the duck and cover with seven cups of boiling water.V 3. Bring contents of the casserole to the boil, reduce the heat so that it simmers, cover, and stew for one and a half hours.V 4. At this point, it is optional to remove duck and discard the bones or not; if so doing, then return the meat to the casserole.
