Duck in orange sauce , is a traditional French recipe , but very few people actually know that this so special dish has its origins in the cuisine of Tuscany-Florence.
This delicious dish, which the Tuscans called " paparo to Melarancia " was exported to France by Catherine de Medici , who married Henry II of Francs - she decided to bring a little piece of her Florence.
Since the arrival of Catherine in France , in fact, we are witnessing a gradual incorporation of Florentine cuisine in the French one : hence the French decided to claim it as their own some recipes including , of course, the orange duck which in France is called " caneton to orange ."

Let cook your duck over a low heat , with the lid on for 45 minutes (if the duck is great also 60) and only at the end of cooking , add salt .
Meanwhile, peel an orange and cut into strips only the orange part of the peel , removing the white part .
