Ingredients

Procedure

  • 0. Mix the thyme, rosemary, garlic, and peppercorns with 2 tablespoons of coarse sea salt. Pour half of the mixture into a large baking dish, add the duck legs, then sprinkle with the remaining salt and rub the duck thoroughly. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for 24 hours.
  • 1. Preheat the oven to 140°C. Remove the duck legs from the baking dish, wipe off the salt mixture with paper towels, and set aside.
  • 2. Melt the duck fat (about 750 g) in a heatproof saucepan until it just bubbles. Add the bay leaves and duck legs and bring to a gentle boil. The legs should be completely covered, so add olive oil if necessary. Transfer the saucepan to the oven and cook for 2 hours and 30 minutes.
  • 3. To check if the duck is cooked, insert a skewer into the thickest part of a thigh; it should fit easily. Let the duck cool in the fat.
  • 4. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Lift the duck legs from the pan, scrape off the fat, and place them, skin-side up, in a shallow baking dish.
  • 5. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of honey over each duck leg and grill for 25-30 minutes until the skin is golden brown.
