Cómo preparar

1
Pat the duck legs very dry. Rub them all over with the salt and black pepper, then arrange them in a covered dish with the garlic and thyme. Refrigerate for 8 to 24 hours.
2
Wipe the seasoning, garlic, and thyme from the duck legs without rinsing them. Heat the oven to 135°C.
3
Arrange the duck legs skin-side down in a snug roasting dish. Pour in the melted duck fat so the legs are mostly submerged, cover tightly with foil, and roast for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, until a fork slips easily into the thickest part and the meat is pulling away from the bone.

4
Lift the duck legs from the fat and place them skin-side up on a rack over a baking sheet. Let them drain and cool for 10 minutes while the oven heats to 230°C.
5
Roast the duck legs uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes, until the skin is deeply golden and crisp and the meat reaches at least 74°C for safe serving.

Rest the duck legs for 5 minutes, then serve hot with a bitter green salad or potatoes roasted in reserved duck fat.

Por qué funciona esta receta

Salting seasons the duck deeply while drawing moisture from the skin, and gentle roasting in fat renders the meat tender without drying it. A final blast of heat restores the signature crisp texture.

Conservación y recalentado

Cómo conservarla

Cool the duck in its fat, cover, and refrigerate for up to 5 days. For longer storage, keep the duck fully submerged in fat in a sealed container for up to 2 weeks.

Cómo recalentarla

Place the duck skin-side up on a rack over a baking sheet and reheat at 220°C until hot throughout and the skin is crisp, about 20 minutes. The meat should reach at least 74°C for reheating safety.
