POV: How to Cook Duck Like a Chef

[@toysarealive1]

I worked in the industry for just over a decade. I was classically trained, tho I learned more in the industry than I ever did in school. What I love about your guy's food is that every dish uses the foundational techniques, but the food is elevated several notches without any pretentiousness. It's just good fucking food. Wish to visit your restaurants sometime. Keep it up, Chefs.

[@Jackielong-sighted7890]

So over ten years of working and you never spent enough time to learn the word though not tho nor the fact that duck has always been a symbol of a high class feast style dining of the rich the most pretentious of all and the clientele they sell most to. Wonderful job. Chef. 😂

looks incredible chef

[@FallowLondon]

It was!

[@AbbiWelch]

I must admit I only make very simple duck breast meals at home because I don't understand the way it behaves. This is a great insight into working with duck more adventurously. Thank you thank you!

[@hamett356]

I always let it rest til 45-50ºC interior temp then to the broiler, I prefer over the pan so the fat won´t burn and all the skin gets the same heat until 55-60ºC, medium rare and perfect crispy skin. I love it. Good work as always.✌

[@Mo_Ketchups]

Actually downloaded this. These guys’ full cook videos are the top a the most, pop a the most. 🤟👍

[@Nanetteb]

When I saw this duck being prepared.I felt I miss duck meat so much and I had duck rarely.It looks so bronzed and glazed with flavors of herbs topped on the flavorful fat it’s poured with.That duck looks scrumptious.🍖😋

[@bluebob81]

3 duck breasts for a £10er in Waitrose, follow the same process without the tricky carving. Came out great

[@davidfarrell8451]

Roast duck is at the top of the meat taste pyramid. Incredible.

[@padders1068]

Yes Chef! Looks amazing and delicious! Thanks for sharing! 🙂😋😎❤

Looking forward to this

[@Troglodyte]

The way he held that knife to cut the skin was wild. He's been doing it for years so he'll be fine, but I would probably use a filet knife or a paring knife, because I would definitely cut myself.

[@asepsisaficionado7376]

When he shook that pan of boiling honey around my fear response went off.

[@brettnelly94]

This recipe is confusing in regards to total time roasting the duck. The video seems to suggest a very large amount of fat has rendered in 4-5 minutes at 200c. Surely that is not possible

[@borisfishman6034]

I think they neglected to mention for how long they turn it down to 140 degrees C. It's 6 minutes at 200 Celsius, and then x amount of time at 140, I would guess between 30-45 min depending on the size of the duck, since he only brings it up to 38 Celsius and waits for it to come up to 56. It does render all that fat pretty quickly, I think. I'm about to find out.

[@AzureCity]

3:40 the way bro was scoring at the end there 😳😭

[@dantheman9919]

What of it?

[@Gmeister484]

haven't seen a chef do this before lmao

[@avefreetimehaver5154]

amazing as always

[@MrRoyalGard]

Thanks my man, will try this one! Nice to see a video with 100% effort ! Wanna ask, if you get a "raised" duck instead of free range duck is there a difference in skin color on the duck?

[@Jackielong-sighted7890]

Difference is night and day.

[@Glee73]

another fantastic video!

[@edenjs1503]

This answers the question: Why do restaurants charge what they do when you can make the food cheaper at home 👍 All the effort and layers of processes make it worth every penny!

[@calummcleod9791]

Because you are paying for the labour cost to make it? You are paying essentially for someone to do something that would take you an hour or more depending what it is. I hate that people complain about restaurant prices. How can they pay their staff a fair wage if they don't charge a decent amount? In my opinion eating out should cost even more than it does now. Independant restaurants are struggling more than ever to stay afloat with rising rent costs and staff wages.

[@ninjadudeofficial]

​@calummcleod9791 you're literally just agreeing with what they said

[@Haltdegrijzejager]

Insane technique! Any opinion on changing the salted boiling water for boiling poultry stock/duck bone broth. Will that benefit the flavour?

[@koga1984]

lovely feather calamus.

[@ggangulo]

sick duck chef

[@Danny_Roman.]

Wish you guys would do another fillet steak video. Full break down on how you achieve a perfect medium rare.

[@DavidBrown-ts2us]

Great to see the temps. I saw on another show once where duck was perfectly cooked, but then ruined because it was over rested. How long will it take for that to happen?

[@ruud24k]

There is no straight answer to your question. Since it very much depends on the weight/size of your bird. More mass means it will come up to temp slower. The key take away from this vid (for me at least), is to pull it out fairly early. You can always heat it a little further if necessary. Chef takes it out with just 36c on it. Which seemed early to me. But his experience enables him to judge how far internal temp will rise way better than I'd be able to. He makes it look simple. But do not underestimate how much the chefs experience plays into the process. He has to take into account how much temp will rise, not only during resting, but also with browning the skin in the pan and under the grill. It will put some more heat into the bird and is easy to become overdone at that point.

[@countryside_guy]

Wild duck is a pita to cook, barely has any fat.

[@lul.t.6831]

It looks delicious but I think my family would scrunch up their face at how pink the meat is.

[@ShortP1089]

hey! loved the video, as always. a quick question: when you are preparing the galze, why don't you crush the star anis and maybe even the sichuan pepper to increase the spices fragrance? i once heard a michelin star cook say, that you should always crush spices like anis, ten, cinnamon etc. to increase the intense flavors of them, because you want to be able to taste the spice, and if not, why would you put it on there in the first place. However, i feel like you might also be consciousnessly going for the mellow flavor, if that's the case, ignore everything i said :D

[@TheIceMan23]

if only i could afford to buy duck

[@JanBongoO]

Youre an incredible talented chef, but they way you hold knife at 3:40 is scary. Please, think about your hands, need more videos. Thanks ;)

[@thomasbarber9979]

[@Will057]

Just a little critic, the music is not necessary in my opinion.

[@williammohae]

How did you attach the GoPro to the apron?

[@braisedtoast9002]

Be careful when you're draining the duck from the boiling water. If you copy the technique shown here it's extremely easy for boiling water to follow the groove down the tongs straight on to you. Edit: ah he mentioned it 5 seconds after I paused to comment.

[@zangrat]

Just a quick question.... Why would you comment before you've watched the whole video ?

@@metalpuppet5798 food wastage is apart of life, if you think tiny portions zero food wastage well they don't.

[@metalpuppet5798]

@@Jackielong-sighted7890 massive portions not only waste extreme amounts of food. They also cause all kinds of health issues for people. Just look whats going on in America with literally almost everyone being extremely obese while in other countries people arent getting enough food to survive. Admittedly its not just the portion size but also the ingredients but thats a different topic. Bottom line is it makes zero sense to have American sized portions. Especially not for super cheap. You then even stop appreciating the value of the food

[@Dynasty1818]

Wait so you only cooked the whole duck for like 6 minutes at 200c then poured hot duck fat over it and rested for 10 mins and that's enough to cook it to medium? Seriously? A whole chicken is like 1hr+ at 180.

Did you just skip through the video then make a comment? 6 minutes was initial temp then it went for longer at 140, as clearly described in the video.

Don't get me wrong, it looks fantastic and probably tastes as well. But it's an overkill.
