Description
Elegant crostini featuring tender, shredded duck confit and sweet fig jam, drizzled with aromatic thyme-infused honey.
Ingredients
- 1 whole duck confit leg (about 10-12 oz / 280-340g)
- 1 baguette, sliced into ½-inch thick rounds (about 20-24 slices)
- 2 tablespoons good-quality olive oil
- 1 small garlic clove, peeled (optional, for rubbing)
Instructions
- Spread: On each cooled crostini, spread a generous teaspoon of the fig mixture.
- Pile: Top with a small mound of the warm, shredded duck confit.
- Drizzle: Remove the thyme sprigs from the honey. Using a spoon, drizzle the warm thyme honey over each crostini.
- Finish: Garnish with a few fresh thyme leaves and a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt and black pepper.
Notes
Duck confit can be prepared ahead. For crispier skin, broil the shredded duck for 1-2 minutes after baking. The thyme honey can be made in advance and stored at room temperature. For a shortcut, use high-quality store-bought duck confit.
