Duck confit takes a little time to make properly but it is worth it. This melt-in-your-mouth duck delicacy will become a favorite. I buy whole ducks and then remove the legs/wings whole and the breasts from the bone. Always leave the skin on the duck! This recipe can easily be doubled if you are hosting a dinner party. I learned this method from Chef Uriah of the Columbian Cafe of Astoria Oregon. The breasts become pan-roasted Muscovy Duck (see my recipe) and the legs/wings become confit. Never roast a whole Muscovy Duck: the breast will be dry musky and bitter.
