Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Flambéing. Pour the alcohol off the heat, never straight from the bottle, and light it with a long match, leaning back. Keep a lid close to put the flames out.

Method

  1. Add wine to hot skillet and stir with a wooden spoon to loosen bits of cooked duck. Add next three ingredients and reduce liquid by half. Add brandy. Caution: Brandy may ignite, so stay a safe distance from the pan. Stir in cream and cook for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. Notes: The term "reduce" means to boil the liquid rapidly until the total volume is reduced by evaporation. Sauces work with just about any dark-fleshed game, include waterfowl and antlered animals, Leysath says.
