Chef Bobby's Grilled Duck Breast
Ricotta recipe: All you need is a food processor and it'll come together in five minutes. Add the whole milk ricotta, extra virgin olive oil, honey, and sea salt to the food processor and blend until completely smooth and fluffy. Feel free to add as much or as little honey, olive oil, and salt to your taste. To grill: Heat a grill to high heat, at least 400 degrees. Use Extra Virgin oil on the grill grate to create a non stick surface. Season and Place eat breast on the grate directly above the fire. Cook medium ducks approximately 2 minutes per side and large duck 3 to 4 minutes per side Sweet and tangy dressings of your choice. Raspberry based vinaigrette work the best! The best temperature for roasting beets is generally between 400°F (200°C) and 425°F (220°C). This temperature range allows the beets to cook through and develop a slightly sweet, caramelized flavor without burning. Here's why this temperature range is recommended and some tips for roasting beets: Moderate Heat:Roasting at 400°F or 425°F provides a good balance between cooking the beets thoroughly and preventing them from drying out or burning. Time:At these temperatures, medium-sized beets will typically take around 45-60 minutes to roast. Testing for Doneness:You can check for doneness by inserting a fork or skewer into the thickest part of a beet. It should slide in easily when the beet is tender. I personally like them on the firm side Not mushy
