Squeamish? Duck! Don't Look! Gross! (pix heavy)
Comments (7)Posted by lsr2002 "I'm waiting for Episode 2! And waiting to see what you do with the skin(and the rest of the parts). You are certainly skilled, I would have had a duck explosion. Lee" I will have a few dishes made the next few days. This method of using compressed air to detach the skin completely in one piece is basically what they do for making Peking Duck with the fantastic crispy skin. Posted by punamytsike "What did you do to make the bony thing into nice plump thing and why?" A very good question. Because the breast meat and the leg meat require different cooking time otherwise the breast meat will get tough and the tough leg meat will not get tender. It is difficult to have all the fat rendered and the skin made crispy without completely overcooking the meat if the skin is on the duck. By cleanly remove all the meat from the bones, you can have a beautiful duck stock made from the bones. This way you will also have all the priced duck fat collected. dcarch...See MoreWhat's good with Duck Fat?
Comments (12)Arley, the duck gumbo sounds delish & will be added to my repetoire(sp?). Minette, I cooked duck breast the other night according to the directions in the June issue of Bon Appetit & it was better than I've ever had in a restaurant. Pound flat to 1/2" thick. Score the skin side into the fat in a 3/4" diamond pattern & saute skin side down in a little butter in a med-hot pan for 5-6 minutes. Reduce heat to medium & saute other side for 5-8 minutes. Remove from heat, tent with foil, & let rest for 10 minutes to absorb juices. Slice & serve on a warmed plate. It was so good, I felt guilty having it when DH wasn't home, LOL!...See MoreWhat do you serve before the turkey?
Comments (19)Here you go Pat, it's Ann T's recipe. As you can see in the picture I do individual puffs. Ann does a full ring. La Gougere (Ann T) 1 Cup water (or half milk/halfwater) 1/3 Cup butter 1/2 Tsp salt fresh nutmeg,Grated cayenne pepper 1 Cup flour 4 eggs 1 Tbl Dijon Mustard 1 Cup gruyere cheese 1 Tsp milk extra cheese for top Bring the water/milk to a boil and add butter. When butter has~melted remove pan from heat and add flour, salt, cayenne, nutmeg, pepper and stir vigorously with a big wooden spoon. The mixture should come away from the sides of the pan and form a ball. Place mixture in the bowl of a large mixer and add one egg at a time beating well, After you add last egg continue to beat well. Mixture will be shiny. Add dijon mustard and taste for~ seasoning. Adjust to your taste. Add coarsely grated cheese. Butter a large cookie sheet and flour. Draw a small circle in the flour (about 2 inches wide) and proceed to drop the dough by tablespoon fulls around the outside of this hole, making a ring, or a crown. Dough should be piled high. Brush lightly with milk and sprinkle the extra cheese over top. Bake the ring in the over for 45 minutes at 400F. Do Not Open Door. Aften baking, open the door of the oven and leave the gougere in the oven for 5 minutes. It should be firm to the touch and golden brown. My Notes: 1)Do not refrigerate batter it needs to be at room temp. Do not place on the pan until ready to cook or they will spread. Cook as close to servng as possible...best warm but OK room temp 2)Gougere are best when cooked as close to preparing the batter as possible in order to get maximum "puff" and best texture. 3)I prefer individual puffs. Scoop up a heaping teaspoon of dough and with another spoon, push it off onto the paper-lined baking sheet (it should form a mound about 1 inch in diameter). Continue with the remaining dough, leaving an inch of space between the gougeres (work in batches as necessary, the dough can stand, covered with buttered waxed paper or parchment, for up to 1/2 hour). Bake until the gougeres are puffy and light golden, about 25 minutes, switching pan positions halfway through. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving, or turn off oven and let gougeres remain in oven, with door ajar, for up to 1 hour. 4) Chopped chives make an nice addition so does roasted garlic ....See MoreDuck recipe critique
Comments (9)I have a number of Roast duck recipes, but Ina Garten's method is my favourite. The meat is tender and the skin is deliciously crisp. Home Cookin Chapter: Recipes From Thibeault's Table Roast Duck ========== Roast Duck Copyright Ina Garten, All rights reserved This recipe is available for a limited time only. Why? 2 (5 to 5 1/2 pounds each) ducks, innards and wing tips removed 6 quarts chicken broth Kosher salt 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper Unwrap the ducks and allow them to sit at room temperature for 20 minutes. With a fork, prick the skin without piercing the meat. This will allow the fat to drain off while the ducks cook. Meanwhile, in a very large stock pot which can hold the 2 ducks, heat the chicken broth with 1 tablespoon of kosher salt until it boils. Add the ducks very carefully and bring the stock back to a boil. If there isn't enough stock to cover the ducks, add the hottest tap water to cover. If the ducks float to the top, place a plate on top to keep them immersed. When the stock comes back to a boil, lower the heat and simmer the ducks in the stock for 45 minutes. When the ducks are finished simmering, skim off enough duck fat from the top of the stock to pour a film on the bottom of a 14 by 18 by 3-inch roasting pan. This will keep the ducks from sticking when they roast. Carefully take the ducks out of the stock, holding them over the pot to drain. Place them in the roasting pan, pat the skin dry with paper towels, and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of salt and the pepper. If you have time, allow the ducks to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow the skin to dry. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. (Be sure your oven is very clean or it will smoke!) Roast the ducks for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow them to rest, covered with aluminum foil, for 20 minutes. Serve warm....See Morerob333 (zone 7b)
