开场介绍
A classic French technique where duck legs are cured in salt and slow-cooked in duck fat until exceptionally tender, then pan-seared to achieve a beautifully crispy skin.
步骤 1
Prep the duck legs by trimming off any excess loose fat and skin.
步骤 2
Generously season all sides of the duck legs with coarse salt. This helps draw out moisture and cure the meat.
步骤 3
Place the salted duck legs on a wire rack and cure them in the refrigerator for 24 hours. Place them skin-side down for the first 12 hours, then flip them for the remaining 12 hours.
步骤 4
After 24 hours, transfer the duck legs onto paper towels and pat them completely dry. Do not rinse the salt off.
步骤 5
Arrange the dried duck legs snugly in a baking dish.

重要提醒
Always cure the duck legs on a wire rack so that air can circulate and the drawn-out moisture can drip away. Avoid using aluminum racks as they can react with the salt.
Do not rinse the salt off after curing; simply pat the legs thoroughly dry with paper towels to prevent introducing moisture back to the skin.
Ensure the oven temperature is low (around 250°F / 120°C). The fat should slowly bubble occasionally, not boil or deep-fry.
Leftover duck fat can be strained and reused up to 2-3 times. Store it in the freezer or refrigerator for future use.
