Cooking Duck Legs

Brined Pineapple Duck
Ingredients
Brine
1/2 cup kosher salt
1 pint pineapple orange juice
15 whole black peppercorns
1 bunch fresh thyme
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1 (5 1/2 to 6 pound) frozen Long Island Duck, thawed
2 handfuls shredded chard
2 shallots, minced
Dash sherry or balsamic vinegar
Preparation
Combine all brine ingredients in a plastic container with a lid.
Place the lid on the container and shake to dissolve the salt.
Remove the pop−up thermometer, liver, gizzards, and heart.
Cut off the wings.
Using kitchen shears, locate the spine at the base of the neck. Cut up the line of the
backbone towards the neck cavity.
Turn the duck and cut straight towards the rear cavity. Remove the backbone.
Turn the duck over and cut straight down the middle of the breast bone, leaving 2 equal
duck halves.
To separate the legs from the breast, flip your halves over so the flesh side is facing up
at you. Using a knife, make a crescent shape cut between the leg and the breast. Lay
your knife flat against the skin and make 3 marks in one direction and then in the other,
making an X. Make sure that you are cutting through the skin and not the meat.
Line the inside of a plastic lexan or a pot with a zip−top bag.
Place the duck quarters inside the bag, and pour the brine over the duck.
Seal the bag, ensuring that all air is removed from the bag.
Brine the duck for 2 to 2 1/2 hours in the refrigerator.
Bring 1 1/2 inches to 2 inches of water to a boil in a large pot.
Place a colander into the pot and line the sides of the colander with the duck. Do not
stack the duck quarters on each other.
Cover and turn the heat to medium low.
Steam the duck for 45 minutes.
Set oven to 475 degrees F. Place a large cast iron skillet into the oven.
Remove duck pieces from steamer and place legs, skin side down, into the hot skillet.
Place the skillet into the hot oven immediately and cook the leg quarters for 10 minutes.
Add the breasts, skin side down, and cook for 7 more minutes or until the duck takes
on a deep mahogany color and the skin is very crisp.
Remove the duck from the skillet and rest under foil.
Add the chard and the shallots to the skillet.
Toss the chard in the fat until it barely wilts.
Season with the sherry or balsamic vinegar.
Serve the duck with the chard.
Yield: 2 to 4 servings
About the Author
Cooking is my life, having been taught initially by my mother at a very young age, I then moved my career on professionally and now work in a pretigious hotel in Washington D.C. If you enjoy great tasting BBQ food, then I urge you to visit Barbecue Party, where you will find a superb selection of BBQ recipes. You may also like to find out how to make your own homemade barbecue sauce.
Duck and orange marinade?
I have 2 duck legs that I’d like to marinade before cooking. Can anybody suggest a tried and tasted marinade using orange? I’d prefer if you statetd the usual cupboard stock, and not things like juniper berries etc.
Take a good tablespoon of orange marmalade and a couple of fluid ounces a whiskey..preferably Bourbon, blend them together really well in a bowl and then turn your duck portions in them. Add a pinch of black pepper and cover the bowl with everything in it, refrigerate overnight if you have time but for at least a couple of hours, then lay the portions on a rack over a roasting tin and roast quite gently for an hour..around 150degrees F., baste them with the marinade every fifteen minutes. Sticky, sweet and bitter at the same time..and delicious.

Duck is eaten in many cuisines around the world. Duck meat is derived primarily from the breasts and legs of ducks. The meat of the legs is darker and somewhat fattier than the meat of the breasts, although the breast meat is darker than the breast meat of a chicken or a turkey. Being waterfowl, ducks have a layer of heatinsulating subcutaneous fat between the skin and the meat. Deboned duck breast can be grilled like steak, usually leaving the skin and fat on.

Cooking for Geeks: $21.94 To watch a video about this book click here. This educational and highly useful book shows the hacker and maker communities how to bring science into the kitchen. Cooking for Geeks will appeal to a broad audience of scientists, cooks, and programmers who want to experiment with food the way they tinker with technology. It allows them to test new food creations by applying the same technical approach they use to debug software or hack hardware. Whether or not they know how to cook, this book helps readers discover a new method to cooking through experiments that let them see the algorithms behind recipes. Are you the innovative type, the cook who marches to a different drummer--used to expressing your creativity instead of just following recipes? Are you interested in the science behind what happens to food while it's cooking? Do you want to learn what makes a recipe work so you can improvise and create your own unique dish? More than just a cookbook, Cooking for Geeks applies your curiosity to discovery, inspiration, and invention in the kitchen. Why is medium-rare steak so popular? Why do we bake some things at 350° F/175° C and others at 375° F/190° C? And how quickly does a pizza cook if we overclock an oven to 1,000° F/540° C? Author and cooking geek Jeff Potter provides the answers and offers a unique take on recipes--from the sweet (a "mean" chocolate chip cookie) to the savory (duck confit sugo). This book is an excellent and intriguing resource for anyone who wants to experiment with cooking, even if you don't consider yourself a geek. Initialize your kitchen and calibrate your tools Learn about the important reactions in cooking, such as protein denaturation, Maillard reactions, and caramelization, and how they impact the foods we cook Play with your food using hydrocolloids and sous vide cooking Gain firsthand insights from interviews with researchers, food scientists, knife experts, chefs, writers, and more, including author Harold McGee, TV personality Adam Savage, chemist Hervé This, and xkcd |

He applies an artisan's approach to cooking, with attention to detail, a reverence for good ingredients, and simple presentations.

The Reason: Chef's lessons on the whys of cooking: blanching vegetables in ice water, covering phyllo dough with a damp cloth. 70 lush color photos and black and white how-to shots by Christopher Hirsheimer are featured throughout the book. |

Aylesbury Duck $60.54 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The Aylesbury duck is a breed of domesticated duck, bred mainly for its meat and appearance. It is a large duck with pure white plumage, a pink bill, orange legs and feet, an unusually large keel, and a horizontal stance with its body parallel to the ground. The precise origins of the breed are unclear, but raising white ducks became popular in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England in the 18th century owing to the demand for white feathers as a filler for quilts. Over the 19th century selective breeding for size, shape and colour led to the Aylesbury duck. Duck rearing became a major industry in Aylesbury in the 19th century. The ducks were bred on farms in the surrounding countryside. Fertilised eggs were brought into the towns Duck End, where local residents would rear the ducklings in their homes.
