Duck Rillettes Recipe
I present you one of my favorite dishes! This is a Riet from a duck. I love duck. A Riet is a type of French pate. And it is prepared quite simply, though relatively long. Well, those who don't like duck can make a chicken salad like this. And if you got a goose, you can make it out of a goose or any other bird)

Instructions
  1. Neck (without skin) and frame fill with cold water, add salt, add Bay leaf, onion and allspice. Put on a slow fire and cook WITHOUT a lid for at least an hour. You can do 1.5. I always cook broth without a lid, so that the liquid evaporates and the broth comes out more saturated. You can prepare the broth in advance. You can also take chicken broth.
