Ever been in a situation where you at a supermarket and at the time think it will be an awesome idea to buy a piece of meat to try, but...when the day comes for you to cook it the first time for your loved one...all of a sudden your heart beats and you wish you never saw the product in the first place? Well, that was me today - I know that my hubby loves Duck and I found Duck Breasts at our local supermarket about 2-3 weeks ago. Thought it would be an awesome challenge for me (as never cooked with duck before) and knew that Ry would be excited and impressed! Like most home cooks, I watch a lot of cooking shows and I using my knowledge from the top chefs I have seen in action on television, intuition and L.O.V.E! I over-came my fear of the unknown - what was the outcome? A delicious combination of crispy Duck skin, tender and moist duck breast meat and a happy Monday Night Dinner...below is my method of how I cooked the yummy meat and hope this helps you try to cook this delicious red meat at home for your loved ones. 1) Place the duck breasts on a plate (skin side up) and with a very sharp knife cut into the skin diagonally and then again in the opposite direction - the outcome should be diamond shaped scores into the skin and fat (try not to go too deep into the meat underneath). |
