When the ducks are dressed, put in them a small onion, pepper, salt and a spoonful of wine. If fire is good they will roast in twenty minutes. Make gravy of necks and gizzards, a spoonful of wine, half an anchovy, a blade or two of mace, one onion and a little cayenne pepper. Boil until reduced to a half pint. Strain and pour over ducks. Serve with an onion sauce. Garnish dish with pieces of bread, cut in small pieces and browned.
