- Black pepperto taste
- Rosemaryto taste
- Sunflower oilto taste

- Duck fatto taste
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.
