if you ever wonder how to make or cook a duck a l'orange, this duck a l'orange step by step recipe will hopefully help you.
In all honesty, it is not a real French christmas dinner dish but it can be a nice addition if you are looking for a Christmas dish idea.
The biggest challenge in French cuisine when making a real ( authentic) duck a l'orange recipe, is to get the right balance in your sweet orange sauce.
It has to have to right combination of sweet, sour and acidity level with a nice zing of fresh orange flavours. the consistency has to be syrupy and almost sticky.

    Stephane, this is the third major recipe I've made of yours. It was fantastic- really, really good. I can't really creatively cook if my life depended on it, but I can follow directions, and I followed this to the T. The only deviation I made was that I used a commercially prepared duck/chicken demiglace that I converted to the sauce. A couple important aspects to the recipe- 1. Really pay attention to the gastrique because it's easy to burn, 2. I fried the breasts in the pan for 5 minutes fat side, 4 minutes meat side, allowed it to rest for 7 minutes then roasted in oven at 360F for 10 minutes- I think I got the rose look with that timing. Thanks again for a incredible recipe and all your great teaching.

    Perfection! For those who haven't cooked duck breast before, notice that Chef scored the skin of the duck before he placed them into the hot pan. This is essential to ensure crispy skin and the rendering of fat.

  • @rbettsx

    @rbettsx

    6 жыл бұрын

    Suzanne Baruch ... and to render the fat even better, start with a *cold* pan. That sounds surprising, but try it. The meat is well insulated from the skin side, it won't overcook. The other side gets a much shorter, hotter fry, and then the breast is allowed to rest until evenly cooked through in its own heat.

    Duck breast is a dark meat. Before it is rosé, it will have reached 135-140 F, enough to pasteurize it. Chicken breast is pinkish when it is raw. by the time it has been raised to a safe temperature, it is more or less white. (Besides, the texture of undercooked chicken is pretty nasty).

    U can serve it with sauce " aigre doux" which is base on sucar mixed with better once the caramel is formed u add orange juice to stop the cooking of the sauce , then whisk the sauce and after 10 mins add some ketchup to thiken the sauce, you can add some diced fruits to garnish the sauce as well. For the duck breat cooking just follow the same steps as in the video , Duck breats served Rosé , but i like it to be well done =)

    Red wine vinegar doesn't contain alcohol (and even if it was regular wine, the alcohol would evaporate in the reduction). In converting to vinegar, the ethanol is converted to acetic acid (which ALL vinegars contain). CH3CH2OH is converted to CH3C00H (present in all vinegar). P.S. You can substitute Sherry Vinegar.

    that one is really tough to imagine . you have to make it to know how it taste. but mostly it taste like a sweet orange flavoured sauce . I made the video because it’s such a classic but I found it a bit ackward to present on video as like you said, it’s really hard to imagine what it taste like and feels a bit alien. BUT, i have to admit, that sauce actually really goes well with duck. in fact it is one of the best matching sauce for duck i have ever tried.

    you don’t need the duck to experiment with the sauce . it’s a strange one that because it’s not hard in itself but it’s really finding the right quantities that harder .which is why many people have turn that sauce into an overly sweet version. that said the secret is that this sauce is way easier to make in large quantities but unfortunately that’s not ideal for home .personaly i think it’s more of a restaurant dish . but it does taste lovely when you make it right .
