The Great Duck Experiment Part 2

If you haven't read The Great Duck Experiment Part 1, I suggest you skip to that first, and pick up here, where the story continues.

Back to the duck drama. So this is the duck at the halfway point. You can't see all the fat in the pan I'm about to suck out, but you will in a moment.
This is how you get the fat out of the pan. Please note the proper use of a baster. It's not for the various dirty things I've been accused of!
Here you can see how much fat I've taken out of the pan, and my duck is ready to go back in the oven!This duck is done. I forgot to take a picture when I'd started to chop into the leg, so it's already on it's way to being decimated.Result! While I finished the cooking and steaming of the pancakes, flatmate D chopped the onions and cucumbers as good as I've seen in any restaurant. The only disappointment was the crappy plum sauce I got. It was so not the right sauce and really couldn't hold it's own, but it had to suffice.Mmmmmm duck! I ate the duck. The duck was good. I liked the duck. Mmmmmm duck!Now, D and I only ate just under half a duck. But in order to clean up, I shredded the rest to put in the fridge. This is the duck carcass. Such a far cry from that perfect looking duck above.In conclusion, the duck was very good. A bit to salty and could have used more spice, less salt. But tender, and tasty. The plum sauce was also off, which would have assisted with the saltiness, had it been the right sort. But that's me being picky. The pancakes were great, the duck was really good, the onions and cucumbers were perfect and I have enough left over for dinner tomorrow!!! Conclusion to the Great Duck Experiment, positive with room for improvement. I guess I'll have to try it again!
