Please try the second recommendation of curing the meat with lavender, for that would also be an interesting post to read. I'm sure the second attempt will be very successful, because the first one already looks delicious.Sanurahttp://www.MyLifeRunsOnFood.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-11535790851015082342010-11-17T13:33:31.730-05:002010-11-17T13:33:31.730-05:00excellently excellent post. the parts that were ed...excellently excellent post. the parts that were edible looked incroyable! good work for your first curing!~ there's always time to cure more fatty fat duckies. there there.Bonbon Oiseauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00217372750598243358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-64431109142418278602010-11-15T08:05:42.240-05:002010-11-15T08:05:42.240-05:00Wearing my copy editor hat:

And thank you for using sane measurement units :-) <br /><br />Our breast was quite a bit smaller, thinner fat too, which probably helped. My suspicion, based on a vague memory of physics and a very colourful animation in my mind, is that the fat serves as great insulation, so very little water escapes through it. On the other side the dry bit might form a similarly impervious shell, keeping the other moisture inside? Really, I know nothing, this is pure speculation, don't trust me, just do your own simulation. But my vote would be for higher humidity next time. <br /><br />As for this batch though? Hmmm. We'd quite happily eat biltong in a similar state? And think of medium-rare duck breast. Yum... (Am I making my point?). Maybe just consign the very duck-like bits to the ragout?jvdhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03917123264206303409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8603107829473043654.post-83284985118280914622010-11-14T16:06:14.826-05:002010-11-14T16:06:14.826-05:00Ellen, back to the drawing board.
