1 5-8 lb duck
2 tsp leaf basil
2 tsp ground ginger
3 tsp salt
1 cup honey
2 sticks butter
1/2 cup orange-pineapple-guava juice

Mix together basil, ginger and salt.
Heat butter in saucepan, then mix in honey, orange and lemon juices and dry mustard; boil for 3 minutes.
Rub about 1/3 of basil mixture inside of duck and rub the rest on the outside.
Stuff duck with tangerine slices.
Pour half the honey mixture over the duck in roaster breast side up, include a bit in the inside (with the tangerines). Cover and roast at 400° for 30 minutes. Keep honey mixture warm.
Reduce heat to 350°, turn duck breast side down and pour rest of honey mixture over duck. Cover and roast breast side down until duck is very tender, about 22 minutes per pound (total cooking time).
This is too good to even describe!  So, this holiday season, just make it!
