Numbers are still climbing Matt. And so they should, your dishes deserve support. Cheers mate.

Bloody hell that is good presentation. My favourite way to have confit duck is very simple - the best French bread you can get, mustard, butter and the duck. Absolutely delicious.

I'm planning to make duck rillettes soon, which is a very rich spread that's perfect with some toast or crusty bread and pickles

I love duck as well. I'm always looking for more ways to cook it. This looks very nice. Thank you.

@unclemattscookerylessons Год назад

Thanks for taking time to comment, this means a lot to me, duck is a strange beast. The breast is best slightly pink but the leg is tough if not slowly cooked. I've created a lot of duck videos so please do check them out, I really believe you'll find some use in them

Duck is hard to find in the stores here. It's just not popular. I order it if it is on the menu at restaurant. I love it.

@unclemattscookerylessons Год назад

I've heard that, when I occasionally go to a nice restaurant I usually go for something that I wouldn't normally have at home. Luckily duck is readily available over here

@wezholly4629 Год назад

I’ve been scrolling around your channel most of the afternoon, and I’m impressed so far! And, by the way, our duck was beautiful (although I failed to crisp up the skin properly)

@4realdustin Год назад

What is it about that crispy skin and tender meat together that makes confit absolutely smashing? You really demystify this process and motivate me to confit this weekend! Perfect use for some extra rosemary sprigs I've got lying around my fridge 😂 🌿.

No need to melt the lard first if you have the right container. I place my aromatics directly on top of the duck, and then put two blocks of lard side by side on top of that. Place the lid on and you're good to go... Just discovered your channel. Looks good! Subscribed.

@unclemattscookerylessons 8 месяцев назад

I'm sure your method works just as well, you have to be confident that you have enough fat that way? Thanks for taking time to comment as well, I appreciate it.

@seanonel 8 месяцев назад

@@unclemattscookerylessons Yeah. For two legs it doesn't take a lot, especially if the legs fit snugly. Thanks for the reply! I realised that I actually _had_ subscribed previously! Guess I'm getting old...

@jaynej9924 3 месяца назад

Hi Matt, Can you demistify something for me please? I have made this in bulk a few times, freezing the legs in twos, submerged in the fat in oven dishes. I learnt mine from watching French people who I can only understand to a point. French people were putting the submerged legs in jars and appearing to keep them long term without any kind of canning process. Do you know if that is a tradition? Just seems that after the long slow cook, you wouldn’t then want to bring it up to any great temperature to preserve it.

@unclemattscookerylessons 3 месяца назад

I think the difference between home cooked and industrial is clear. I imagine that the canned product is heat treated. If you're making this for your family,I suggest eating within a few days

Is there a replacement for lard oil or duck oil?

@unclemattscookerylessons 7 месяцев назад

You can use any oil, even regular vegetable oil. I try to avoid veg and sunflower oil personally, seed oils generally are bad for you

@ishanpreetsingh-r7t 8 месяцев назад

can we serve it with salat

@unclemattscookerylessons 8 месяцев назад

I haven't had this with salad (salat) before because I really like having a sauce with it. If I had it with a salad I would like to pull the meat with forks into strands and serve with a dressing, the dressing would need to be quite sharp tasting like with lemon juice as the duck is very rich. Hope that helps

@RdLine-zk8ik 10 месяцев назад

Is the lard made from duck fat? Can I use some pig lard? Thanks!

@unclemattscookerylessons 10 месяцев назад

I made a mistake sorry, lard is pig fat and is good, if you have duck fat, use that as it's better. You can use oil by the way but animal saturated fats are better in every way. You can reuse the fat several times

@RdLine-zk8ik 10 месяцев назад

Duck ham?????

@unclemattscookerylessons Год назад

Not sure if I've ever seen duck ham but I spoke to someone recently who loves venison bacon. I think you can use hamming techniques with most meats?

@moniquem783 Год назад

@@unclemattscookerylessons after I’d typed that I thought wait, if you can do ham, then you can do bacon! I’m moving to a little smallholding soon but at this stage I’m not planning to keep pigs. Sheep, cows and poultry. Definitely chickens, I’ve already got some, but probably also some ducks and maybe a couple of geese. I’ve seen bacon made from lamb or mutton breast, so I was thinking I would do that although that’s a very limited amount per year. But I had thought ham just wasn’t going to be something I would have anymore. But if I can do it with any meat, then that opens up a huge amount of options. And if I can do ham, and it’s a fatty meat like duck or goose, surely I could try bacon from that too. Oh that’s so cool! Another step towards being self sufficient!!

@tombailey3807 8 месяцев назад

I was going to get angry about your assumption that I don’t want to eat excess duck skin, and then you said ‘duck scratchings’. Don’t think I’ve ever subscribed to a channel so quickly.

@unclemattscookerylessons 8 месяцев назад

I love the duck skin, what I don't like is when they cook didn't render the fat out first. Chewy skin just wont do

@kevinaschim8475 7 месяцев назад

Nothing wrong with eating duck fat.

@delanomomo2133 11 месяцев назад

Duck cooked in Fett not really confit, the fat was way to hot.

@unclemattscookerylessons 11 месяцев назад

You make a good point re the temperature, I have so say however, I've confit duck so many times at different temperatures. The end result is the same for me re the texture.
