At our bistro, we stay true to the traditional preparation method. The duck legs are generously seasoned with a blend of fresh herbs, aromatic garlic, and coarse sea salt. This mixture is allowed to permeate the meat for at least 24 hours, a process known as 'curing'. This not only seasons the meat but also helps to draw out excess moisture, ensuring a succulent result. After the curing process, the duck legs are slowly cooked in their own fat.
