Ingredients
4duck legs
2 cupsduck fat
to tastegarlic and thyme
Instructions
1
Salt the duck legs generously.
2
Refrigerate uncovered overnight, which draws out moisture and firms the meat before it cooks.
3
Submerge the legs fully in duck fat with garlic and thyme, then cook low and slow at 140C for 2.5 hours until the meat is completely tender.
4
Crisp the skin-side down in a hot pan just before serving, which is the step that turns soft confit skin into something properly crackling.
