Duck Recipes
Duck Confit
Duck legs cured with salt, herbs and spices, then poached in duck fat and stored up to three months. Oh, and did I mention it's delicious? Because it is.
Ducks have one thing that makes them an extra special member of the poultry community: FAT. They have a lot of it, and it's one of the most delicious things in the world. Cooking things, including duck itself, in duck fat is amazing. Below is a recipe for confit, which is duck legs poached in duck fat. It's one of my favorite things.
Another thing that ducks have going for them are their livers. When a duck is force-fed for four to five months, its liver gets engorged. We call this fatty liver foie gras. And it is also awesome.
