I need a duck recipe because my mom doesn't want to cook a duck. She will cook a turducken but not a duck. I don't get the difference.

Ooooh, sumbitch. Let's do this.
ReplyDeleteO.K first of you'll need at least 3 ducks just for yourself….
ReplyDeleteGet your duck, and brine it for at least a day; longer if you can. Use about a cup of kosher salt and a couple of gallons of water. Throw in some lightly crushed peppercorns if you want.
ReplyDeletePrior to roasting, slice the skin/tendon at the base of the drumstick. Truss the legs together. Roast at 350 for about 3.25 hours. Pour off and reserve the fat. If you throw it out... you're a np-good-pinko-commie-bastard that makes baby jesus cry.
Eat the skin (for the same reason that you don't discard the fat). Rehydrate dried cherries, or get raspberries to make a compote to serve on the side.
Use yukon gold potatoes for mashed potatoes. Add a stick of butter, some Half&Half, and a couple tablespoons of the duck fat as you're whipping it in the KitchenAid.
Eat, eat, eat, And then undo the top button of your pants.
Can you come cook for me?
DeleteDamn, what's for dessert?
DeleteWe are making cioppino for Christmas eve. It's so delicious and we do it every year.
ReplyDeletedamn charlie, thats hot. ever been to NE FL? ;)
ReplyDeleteA friend was talking about a Tur-pork-en. Which, is like a turducken, but with a pork tenderloin instead of a duck. Duck's too fatty for me.
ReplyDelete@ All the ladies. This is just a subtle way for me to get you to unbutton your pants. "Just one more slice want hurt. C'mon, it's the holidays."
ReplyDeleteWon't
ReplyDeleteAddendum: If you use the packet of orange sauce that comes with the duck, I will have to go Amish on your ass and shun you. Just don't do it.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing a spiral ham. The duck I tried made me wanna hurl.
ReplyDeleteBrine the duck in a high fat milk to soften it and to remove any of that "gamey" taste. The lactic acid works wonders on any meat of that sort, like venison or the like.
ReplyDeletePrepare next as you would like. My family hails from the land that originated the turducken, btw, if anyone wants a recipe for that?
@ Reno. I'm sorry to hear that. However, that is like saying "I had sex with a guy once, and it made me want to hurl". Not all ducks are the same, Sugar. In fact, you should try getting ducked again .-)
ReplyDeleteyes?
DeleteLove ya, dear.
DeleteDuck is too greasy for me. We're having a spiral ham with pecan maple glaze, sushi for the fish friends, and sammiches for those of us who need it. Since half the people in each home are germy I'd prefer to put it off till we feel better.
ReplyDeleteOh, Charlie, food literotica! I will be oh so happy when this damn cold goes away and I can taste food again.
ReplyDeleteOn the rehydrated cherries note, I'm not sure I can forgive MichaelK for posting the Jodie Marsh terducker. :/
Ahhhhhhjj! My eye, my eye. Oh dear god.

ReplyDeleteDear Enty: I am allergic to kitchens. Not a good cook. I cooked a duck once that my uncle had shot. Mercy. It smelled really bad, as in gamey. I had even made a sauce for it of canned cranberry sauce, brown sugar, frozen condensed orange juice. The sauce was yummy. The duck was inedible, and it smelled up the whole house. We were astonished. I have since heard that one could braise the duck in wine beforehand to get the gaminess out. But, I don't think you want to take cooking hints from me, generally. How about epicurious.com? Or the internet. Anyway, there must be more pleasant ducks than the one I had. We had a turkey once that my dad shot on my mother's land that had been eating peppers. Don't know where the turkey got the peppers, but that turkey was hooooooooot! I wish you bon chance.

ReplyDeleteYum Yum.
There is a food truck in the bay area called Rolli Roti that makes amazing rotisseried chicken. The Opster said they had some ducks roasting on Sat. and I can only imagine that would get rid of all the fat (sadly you wouldn't have any for those delicious duck fat fries later) but would be good for those who find the bird too fatty.
ReplyDeleteSounds like our Hotty McOneEye has the right idea for the home cook. I don't eat duck but would love to make it for friends who do enjoy it.
Charlie where do you stand on the milk soak? Can't call that a brine since no salt is involved.
Oh yeah, Roli also had pig kunkle. That's right, the spelling comes from a Chinese restaurant we were at once and has always stuck as a joke.
ReplyDeleteBut it is a knuckle.
@sherry I would use the milk soak if you're using wild duck: mallard, canvasback, etc. Their natural diet is of a more suspect and varied nature; leading to the potential gamey flavor. You shouldn't need it for a store bought pekin or muskovin. With them, definitely go with the brine. The long (3.25) hr roast renders off most of the fat for those who think duck is too greasy. Leaving behind warm, tender succulent duck that you slowly wrap your lips around.

ReplyDeleteI used to know a woman who stuffed her duck with sauerkraut. She said it soaked up a lot of the grease and made for a tasty side dish. I dunno...still can't say I ever want to try duck.
ReplyDeleteOooh, Cee Kay. You're breakin' my heart .-(
ReplyDeleteMy children won't eat chicken anymore; they say it's too bland.
I almost forgot. Save the neck and the carcass. Use it to make stock. Then use said stock when you're making risotto. Fuck me raw, soooooo good. Duck stock risotto with porcine mushrooms, garlic, and pine nuts. Try that and you'd be begging to marry me.
Porcini mushrooms - swear to god, spelchek, you doubt me again and I'll kick your ass.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Charlie...Porcine mushrooms might be a good mix as well.
ReplyDelete@amulbunny- is there a recipe for the pecan glaze that you might recommend? that sounds delish.
ReplyDelete@ Caliblondy I could make creme brulee. I usually grind French Vanilla coffee beans superfine and incorporate it in the brown sugar to make a quasi- coffee creme brulee
ReplyDeleteLove it! @OneEye! I shall take your advice.
