Directions:
- Mix the allspice, nutmeg and kosher salt and sprinkle evenly over duck. Press the garlic and fresh thyme bunches onto the flesh and skin and place a bay leaf on the exposed flesh of each leg. Cover and cure in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 200°F Drain all the liquid from the baking dish. Pat dry. Return the cured legs to the cleaned dish along with the garlic and herbs and cover with warm fat.
- Bake for 6 to 8 hours or until the garlic cloves have turned a deep golden brown and fleshis soft to the touch.
- Let the meat cool in the fat. When it reaches room temperature remove the legs and strain fat.
- There will be a bit of duck liquid at the bottom that will turn to jelly when refrigerated and should be saved and used for seasoning poultry sauces.
- Pour the strained fat back over the duck legs and store in the fridge until needed.
- To reheat the duck, brush with orange marmalade and bake in the oven at 450F until crispy and golden.
- French Vinaigrette:.
- Combine and whisk all ingredients together. Pour over salad mix.
