- 1 tablespoon chopped thyme
- 1 ounce brandy
- Up to 1 cup duck fat, melted and slightly cooled

- In a bowl of an electric mixer with a paddle combine duck meat, shallots, parsley, thyme and brandy; cream together for 2 minutes.
- In a slow steady stream, with motor running, pour in duck fat -- it will add a wonderful flavor and a nice creaminess to the dish; adjust seasonings to taste.
- For extra richness, add butter.
