Ingredients

  • 1 mast duck
  • 200 g sea salt
  • 750 g goose fat
  • 4 sprigs Rosemary
  • 1 untreated orange
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp black peppercorns
  • 500 g shallots
  • 6 large slices of white bread (for serving)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    On the next day, brown all duck parts skin-side down in a little goose fat. Then add the shallots and sauté briefly.

  2. 2.

    Add the remaining fat so that all meat pieces are covered. Place the pot on the bottom of a preheated oven and braise everything at 200 °C until the meat is tender and nicely browned (about 3 hours).

  3. 3.

    For serving, toast the white bread and place it on plates. Arrange one piece of duck on each and add a few shallots.

  4. 4.

    To store as a reserve, put the cooked duck parts in tightly sealing jars.

  5. 5.

    Pour as much liquid, preferably hot goose fat, over them so that the meat is fully covered with fat.

  6. 6.

    Fill any remaining fat into tightly sealing jars. Seal all jars immediately and let the confit cool. It keeps in the refrigerator for 1–2 weeks.
