My friend Ross McKnight of Backwater Foie Gras Farm has gifted me a duck he specially deboned for me, I'm axin' y'all, how would YOU cook it for Sunday dinnah tomorrow, cher!
Why kosher salt. Just as un-kosher salt, it is just plain sodium chloride NaCl. Does it have a separate nature—or flavor— because it has been blessed by a rabbi who may be a trans female? Yo Mama!
LOL. Well, cause I have POUNDS of the stuff lying around for making rubs. Meat rubs made with fine ground salt just don't have the same texture. We also use very coarse ground black pepper. BTW Kosher is the oldest food preservation system on earth. A K or U with a circle around it makes something "kosher" which basically means naturally preserved or it contains nothing against the kosher code. The infamous "Sick Chicken" case in 1938 was one of the SCOTUS cases used to nationalize the FDA/USDA stranglehold on health regs. The Schecter Brothers were butchers in Brooklyn whose butcher shop was devastated by FDR's jihad against local anything.
Kosher salt also distributes more evenly, sticks to food better, and dissolves more readily on the surface of meats and poultry, making it ideal for dry brining. Because the grains of kosher salt are larger, they take up more room, making a teaspoon of kosher salt less dense than a teaspoon of regular table salt.
looks good
I would stuff it with some andouille or chorizo, give it a little heat and fat from the inside.
