happyjillin Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 We are originally from Europe so we do xmas eve just like Mexicans. Roast Muscovi duck. Hungarian bread dumplings. red cabbage and gravy. Oh, and several brands of beer,Czech,Spanish,German and [gasp!] a Chinese Pilsener. Then for dessert English trifle and snifters of Grande Marnier. Got the locally raised 3.5 kilo duck from los 3 butchery. You can get it fresh or frozen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyFree Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Did you buy the duck fresh or frozen? And how did it turn out? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The picture shows how it turned out and I bought it frozen because of not knowing what my time frame for making the meal was going to be. If it was not excellent I would have not made this post. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmh Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 well what can I say, it is proof that food is difficult to photograph.. The duck looks overcooked.. but then after some Grand Marner who cares.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never overcook duck,it was juicy and tender except for the ultra crisp wing bits you are probably looking at which i really like that way and as the chef i get to grab one for my plate first. the juicy breast chunks with crisp skin have already been grabbed from the platter. Wild duck that I shoot,I do rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

happyjillin Posted December 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 left over duck stir fry prepared in my new wok by my son and daughter-in-law who are visiting from London,England. Side not shown was the brined/spiced cucumber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusMactavish Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Remember that moment when your steak is on the grill and you can already feel your mouth watering........ Do vegans feel the same when mowing the lawn? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
