A unique way of cooking duck stew using nipa wine or “tuba”. This native wine comes from coconut sap collected by snipping the stem called the florescence and attaching a bamboo pole. The product derived from the sap is either wine or vinegar. Cooking meat using coconut wine has a distinct flavor compared to using ordinary cooking wine.
To cook stewed native duck in nipa wine: Mix all Ingredients together and bring to a boil, uncovered. Then lower heat and boil, covered till duck meat is tender. Uncover and let the sauce simmer till thickened and sweet. In the last 5 minutes, add pineapple tidbits, carrots, soy sauce (for color), freshly ground black peppercorn and MSG. Serve.
