Time for duck

I make my flour tortillas with duck/goose fat. My wife likes the flavor a bit better than schweinfet.
So I was extremely low and my daughter doesn't like duck of goose too much.
So I roasted a duck to take to the Biergarten with other friends.
I pierced teh skin and let it sit overnight in the fridge rubbed with salt and pepper. Rinsed that off and put onion and garlic in the cavity and coated with Chinese 5 spice. Roasted the first half back side up then turned it over to finish.

Now waiting for our guests to arrive.

try her on duck quesadillas: flour tortilla, queso anejo (white cheddar or even mozzarella might do), and sliced duck. Be sure to include a little piece of crunchy duck skin. Toast until the tortillas are crisp and the cheese is gooey.

I love duck but I have to agree with her about goose, I've never been terribly impressed with it, especially how little meat there is on such a big bird. Except for that yummy fat that renders out, it's hardly worth wrestling it into the oven.
