Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Learn how to make incredibly crispy duck at home with this easy recipe. You'll be amazed at how simple it is to achieve that perfect crispy skin and juicy meat! Perfect for a special dinner or any occasion.
Ingredients:
Duck Crown
1L Water
400g Fine salt
Aromatics: garlic cloves, rosemary, thyme, black peppercorns
1L Ice
Salt and pepper
Neutral oil or Duck fat
Glaze:
Honey
3 Star Anise
1 tsp Sichuan peppercorn
3 Garlic cloves, crushed
Orange peel
Sage
Lavender
Lavender sprigs; for garnish
Coriander seeds; for garnish
Method
1. Brine the Duck: Dissolve salt in 1 litre of water in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add aromatics to the brine and let sit for 5 minutes. Add ice to cool the brine. Ensure it’s completely cooled before proceeding.
2. Prep the Duck: Remove duck from the brine and rinse under cold water for 30 minutes. Prick the duck skin all over using a sausage prick, wooden skewer, or small sharp knife.
3. Blanch the Duck: Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Using tongs, dunk the duck skin into the boiling water for 20 seconds, then transfer to ice water. Repeat once more (a total of 2 times).
4. Dry the Duck: Place the duck crown side down in a bowl of coarse salt. Air dry the duck in the fridge for 24 hours.
5. Prepare for Cooking: Rinse the salt off the duck under cold water and pat dry.
6. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Bring some duck fat or oil to heat.
7. Score the duck skin without cutting into the meat.
8. Cook the Duck: Place the scored duck on a wire rack over a tray. Roast in the oven for 6 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 140°C. Pour hot oil or duck fat over the duck.
9. Roast until the internal temperature reaches 56°C, checking after 8 minutes & basting with hot oil/fat at intervals. Continue to check the temperature until the Duck is at 56°C. Rest the duck outside the oven for 10 minutes (internal temp should reach 56°C).
10. Make the Honey Glaze: In a hot pan, bring honey, star anise, and Sichuan peppercorns to a boil. Reduce to a golden brown colour, then remove from heat. Add crushed garlic, orange peel, sage, and lavender. Let flavours infuse.
11. Finish the Duck: Brush the honey glaze over the duck skin. Finish by blow-torching or placing under a hot grill to crisp the skin.
12. Garnish and Serve: Garnish the duck crown with lavender sprigs and coriander seeds.
Enjoy your beautifully glazed, aromatic, and crispy duck crown!

    I worked in the industry for just over a decade. I was classically trained, tho I learned more in the industry than I ever did in school. What I love about your guy's food is that every dish uses the foundational techniques, but the food is elevated several notches without any pretentiousness. It's just good fucking food. Wish to visit your restaurants sometime. Keep it up, Chefs.

    hey! loved the video, as always. a quick question: when you are preparing the galze, why don't you crush the star anis and maybe even the sichuan pepper to increase the spices fragrance? i once heard a michelin star cook say, that you should always crush spices like anis, ten, cinnamon etc. to increase the intense flavors of them, because you want to be able to taste the spice, and if not, why would you put it on there in the first place. However, i feel like you might also be consciousnessly going for the mellow flavor, if that's the case, ignore everything i said :D

  • @ruud24k

    @ruud24k

    Ай бұрын

    There is no straight answer to your question. Since it very much depends on the weight/size of your bird. More mass means it will come up to temp slower. The key take away from this vid (for me at least), is to pull it out fairly early. You can always heat it a little further if necessary. Chef takes it out with just 36c on it. Which seemed early to me. But his experience enables him to judge how far internal temp will rise way better than I'd be able to. He makes it look simple. But do not underestimate how much the chefs experience plays into the process. He has to take into account how much temp will rise, not only during resting, but also with browning the skin in the pan and under the grill. It will put some more heat into the bird and is easy to become overdone at that point.

    Because you are paying for the labour cost to make it? You are paying essentially for someone to do something that would take you an hour or more depending what it is. I hate that people complain about restaurant prices. How can they pay their staff a fair wage if they don't charge a decent amount? In my opinion eating out should cost even more than it does now. Independant restaurants are struggling more than ever to stay afloat with rising rent costs and staff wages.

Just look whats going on in America with literally almost everyone being extremely obese while in other countries people arent getting enough food to survive. Admittedly its not just the portion size but also the ingredients but thats a different topic. Bottom line is it makes zero sense to have American sized portions. Especially not for super cheap.
