Using Duck for Mole?

Question

I have some duck b*****s and was wondering if I could use them in a mole recipe. I have a recipe using both chicken and turkey, I am not sure how duck would work.

Do I remove the fat from the breast? Or should I save the duck for something else? Not sure about this so any good advice would really help.

Answer 1

OMG, you can TOTALLY use mole sauce for duck.

We currently have duck breast with mole on the menu at a restaurant I work at. The fat is kept on so the guest can remove it at their discreation, but you can take it off.

Answer 2

I have cooked duck, but never with a mole sauce.  Mole is a strong flavor and I personally thing duck is strong also.  I say go for it, the worse that could happen is you learn a lesson whether to do it that way or not.
