Week 7 — Wild Duck Week

duck gives three gifts — breast seared rare under crackling skin, legs confited slow in their own fat, and the rendered fat itself. And because confit is a preservation, it keeps a week-plus in its fat, which is what carries the back half. Garden and pizza nights fill the rest.
