Yet as you can see, there is severe inconsistency:( with mine blackened)

The skin was neither crispy nor the meat nicely juicy.

I remember when Saveur first started, I was one of those who queued for a taste of this. It was delicately seasoned, cooked to a fork tender moist leg of duck Confit.

Sure, the sauce has since been refined to leaps and bounds comparably, but the star of this dish is really the duck. Why should we fall in love with a side of mushrooms instead?
