It’s fun to play “fancy French food” in the kitchen every once in awhile. Unfortunately, I am not classically trained and some techniques and ingredients are just beyond my reach. But when you’re cookin’ up a duck breast, you can’t help but want to make it a l’orange, right? Enter, my cheats sauce…
This recipe also works quite well as a teriyaki sauce or as a glaze for Cedar Plank Salmon.
Looking for a wine pairing? How about an unpretentious French wine: Louis Jadot 2012 Pinot Noir.
