Tips:
1. Oil seal is a traditional cooking method in southern France. After the duck leg is completely soaked in duck fat, heat it for a long time on a low fire. Use the characteristic of duck legs to solidify at a low temperature to completely wrap the duck meat. When it is time to eat, take out the oil-sealed duck legs and fry them in a pan until golden. The duck meat is crispy on the outside and crispy on the inside, tender and sweet.
2. Duck oil is made from whole ducks. It takes a lot of time to make and can be bought in the market. If it is not available, use olive oil instead, but the taste is second.
