    I cooked duck breasts for my brother and his wife one time....the only duck they'd ever eaten was wild and still had buckshot in it *insert eye roll here*. They LOVED mine (served it with a cherry compote). I had told my sister in law that she could keep the fat, freeze it in an ice cube tray and use it for all sorts of goodness. She seemed thankful....but months later, I learned that she'd thrown the fat out, because keeping it was 'too much trouble'. That was the beginning of the end of our civilized relationship :(

    Thank you for this detailed and easy to follow instructional video Chef Williams! I cooked duck breast for the first time on NYE for my Covid bubble, and it turned out exactly as demonstrated. It was deeeelicious - tasted like a perfect piece of steak, but yummier - and my friends were SO impressed. So thank you, and I look forward to more of your videos!

    Chef, I'm doing research about the duck breast pan-fried and your video is the best. Get's the best results by far and there is no oven involved. That fat is rendered to an impressive thinness! Glossiness and pinkness are amazing! Thank you for this technique! Subscribed!

    This is seriously the best and the most professional duck breast recipe on UA-cam. Have watched so many videos and tried so many times but none of them really helped! I can really tell this is gonna work because of how thin that crispy skin is and the evenly cooked meat !! Nice work ! I’ll try it on weekend.

  • @hamsicle
    @hamsicle 7 місяців тому

    This guy actually knows how to cook. I prefer cooking it on medium low and straining the fat out as it renders but it also depends how big your burner is. I also put a weight on it because it helps ensure good fat contact. Not a problem when the heat is not high. I'm not in a restaurant so I can take my time with it and duck definitely requires it. But no doubt about it, that was cooked perfectly. Plating was awful but who cares.
    Duck is one of my favorites.

  • @doylesouders1228

    Awesome to see somebody pay so much attention to splitting that duck fat open with such a sharp and thin blade
    The slow sear and rendering of the duck fat and then cooking a duck breast in its own rendered fat
    O yeah
    I have used a similar technique for years much to the chagrin of some of my foodie friends but they never argue with the results
    That looks phenomenal thank you for sharing

    Do you normally attempt to put some char on the skin side? I've started to use sous vide to help me control the process to get a more even cook, but the way you did it gives a really nice pink color to meat, which looks awesome. Just wondered if you meant to cook that skin at such a high heat to get a char. Curious your thoughts on that, thank you.

    • @peterbrenton410
      @peterbrenton410 10 місяців тому

      Not blood .That red liquid is water mixed a protein called myoglobin. as meat ages, the muscle tissue breaks down - and it doesn't take long. The water and myoglobin cells inside the meat are released and, a red blood-like liquid emanates from the meat when it is prepared
