  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 cups duck stock
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine

  1. 1 Remove the best meat from the roasted ducks. Place the remaining carcass meat, shallots, parsley, pepper, and bay leaf in a mortar or food processor.
  2. 2 Pound or blend the mixture into a coarse paste. Transfer to a saucepan and add the stock, white wine, broth, and a pinch of grated nutmeg.
