Classic confit is quite a fatty dish. Pieces of duck languishing in duck fat and preserved under a layer of solidified fat that was important in the days when there were no refrigerators. My recipe is an attempt to make confit with more diet, it is more appropriate for our time. Of course, to keep this dish should be in the fridge. If anyone objected to me that my recipe is not a confit, I will not argue, this recipe is inspired by a recipe confit. Often in a classic confit use orange zest to give the dish flavor.
