Chef’s note
Duck legs confit
Tender and rich in monounsaturated fat, duck is as tasty than healthy. In the grocery store, this flesh is offered into cuts ready to cook like duck legs confit, a cooking specialty in Gascogne, France. Already cooked and kept in fats, you just need to heat it up in the oven for about 15 minutes at 400°F (205°C).
