Cooking tips
- When deboning the duck, don't try to cut through the bones. Instead, insert the knife into the joint space between the bones for easier separation.
- Do not discard the duck fat used for confit. Strain it and store it; it can be reused for over a week.
- Always start cooking the duck breast skin-side down in a cold pan. This allows the internal fat to render slowly, resulting in crispy skin without burning.
- Gravy sauce can solidify when it cools due to the duck fat content. Reheat it just before serving to ensure a smooth consistency.
