Good to Know
When you buy duck breast, score the skin in a crosshatch and render it slowly in a cold pan so the fat melts down before the meat overcooks; that rendered fat is pure cooking gold for eggs or vegetables later. Watch the restaurant versions: dishes like duck à l'orange or anything glazed with hoisin or plum sauce can add 15 grams of sugar or more, so skip the sweet sauces and season with salt, pepper, and thyme instead. Plain magret from brands like Maple Leaf Farms or D'Artagnan stays at 0 net carbs, but always check the label on pre-marinated or smoked packages for added honey or maple.
