You can apply a high amount of heat to the duck skin, but to achieve perfection, it’s essential to cook it very slowly.
Cook the duck skin following the 90:10 rule — 90% of the time on low heat and the remaining 10% on higher heat.
After about 8 minutes, remove the duck from the heat, then alternate between placing it back on the heat and off it.
Remove the press; there’s no need to add butter or other fat. The duck will cook in its own rendered fat.
If the meat is still undercooked, leave it on the fleshy part for about 30 more seconds.
The target internal temperature of the meat is 56 °C (about 133 °F), which corresponds to medium rare.
Once this temperature is reached, let the duck rest for 8 to 10 minutes so the temperature stabilizes beautifully at 56 °C.
After resting, the duck should have a tender texture, a pink center, and extremely crispy skin.
