The rillettes
Rillettes de Canard. Riet - old dish of French cuisine, which is a chopped baked or stewed meat, covered with layer of fat and a good present. I would call it a cross between a stew and conventional paste. Especially the delicious rillettes, it just created for this dish - and its meat is fragrant, and delicious fat is a lot. Seemingly a simple dish of peasant origin, but in fact a real delicacy, especially in the company of dry red French wine, a fresh baguette and pickles gherkins. Prepared in explanation of the recipe is Paula Wolfert (The Cooking of Southwest France) from Valentina.

Cooking

step-0
For riata I bought the perfect homemade duck weighing about four pounds.
step-1
Prepare all the ingredients, to not to forget anything, since a lot of them.
step-2
A duck to remove all the fat and skin, and finely chop them, place in a heated thick-walled pot or cauldron and melt over very low heat. When the fat just begins to melt, add to it 3-4 tablespoons of water (this procedure makes the fat nucleosomes). Fat to drain, measure from 300 ml rest to return to the pot. Measured fat (300 ml) refrigerate.
step-3
Prescription need to chop a Duck into pieces of 4-5 cm, but I do not hack. Fold the meat in a pan with fat, add 2 onions, garlic and carrots. Season with salt and pepper, add all the spices. Pour the wine and broth. Mix well. Put the pan in a preheated 150°C. Cover to cover. I cooked in a slow cooker, I like it better on the program dolgovka,4 hours. Stew meat 4-5 hours (until it is well separated from the bones). During cooking the contents of the pan to mix several times. Gradually all the liquid evaporates, the meat will be prepared in fat.
step-4
Prepared meat remove from pan, cool slightly (to avoid burning your hands) and take apart (the pieces of meat to separate bones and skin and throw away). Fat to drain and measure from 100-120 ml. the Remaining fat can use at their discretion.
step-5
In a heatproof bowl set fire to the brandy, give it a burn and allow to cool (CAUTION!!! Keep hands and face! Do not burn near flammable items!). I was even remembering how to burn brandy)))
step-6
According to the recipe using a blender to grind meat, steamed vegetables (onions and carrots), mushrooms. This should be done in pulsed mode, so that the mixture did not become homogeneous, but I personally always assort the meat fibers, for a long time, of course, but much tastier, the meat Slices should be well felt! Add to meat 300 ml stored body fat and brandy, mix well. It needs more salt, if needed. To decompose Riet in ceramic pots (or glass jars), it's good to pin down. Pour on top of the saved flavorful fat (one in which you cooked the meat). Before serving let stand in refrigerator at least 3 days!
step-7
That much of rieta is obtained from a specified quantity of products, plus left a jar of fat for my next rieta of the rabbit, which just a lack of fat)))
step-8
Good homemade white bread, pickled vegetables (especially cucumbers), salad of fresh vegetables (tomatoes work fine) and dry red wine! Nice, but not good!
