I love duck, and it's such a simple good bird!

Do you par-boil the carrots before roasting them? I find half an hour from raw doesn't do them enough. Do you ever add balsamic vinegar to the veg?

No and no, but I did parboil the carrots over Christmas and they did come out much better. You're right though, they need more cooking than the rest.

Balsamic is something I've yet to experiment with. It's one of those things I've only ever used on salad but has so much more potential.

I did a roast duck with my mum the other day. Was awesome however we prepped the bird differently to you (but perhaps not massively differently).

Always a goodun!

It's the only vinegar (except for malt ) that I've experimented with, and only with roast veg. I got a book for christmas that is all about the uses of vinegar in food and it's prompted me to spend far too much on all different kinds
