Duck Leg Adobo – A Existent Household Unit Of Measurement Repast

If you’ve worked inwards restaurants before, y'all know that every nighttime earlier service the staff sits downwardly to what’s called the “family meal.” One of the younger cooks is usually charged amongst scraping together something filling and, to a greater extent than importantly, non expensive. It was during i of these meals that I root had adobo.

When I worked at the Carnelian Room inwards the belatedly 80’s, much of the kitchen crew was Filipino, together with therefore chicken together with pork adobo was a real mutual dinner. One of the dishwashers made a especially nifty version, together with I cruel inwards dearest amongst the bold, uncomplicated flavors. I also think beingness pretty annoyed that the dishwashers in that place were improve cooks than I was at the time, but that’s some other story.

Anyway, I happened to accept some duck legs to a greater extent than or less end week, together with all it took was a well-timed electronic mail wishing for adobo to inspire this video. I sympathize that most of y'all volition non role duck for this, but if y'all do, travel certain to salve the fat.

Duck fatty is prized yesteryear chefs, together with to a greater extent than heart-healthy than people realize. It tin sack travel used for simply almost anything you’d commonly tyke inwards butter or vegetable oil. I roasted some Brussels spouts amongst mine, but it also volition brand simply almost the best homefries you’ve always tasted.

Like I said inwards the video, no duck, no problem. If y'all tin sack simmer it inwards a sauce, it volition travel inwards this recipe. Because of the high soy sauce content, travel careful almost over reducing, but other than that, non much tin sack larn wrong. This is cheap, easy, together with real flavorful, which is why it makes for such a nifty “family meal.” Enjoy!
