Savor the rich flavors of perfectly cooked duck breast paired with a sweet and tangy plum sauce. This delightful dish is best enjoyed fresh, but proper storage ensures its deliciousness can be preserved for a few more days.
Storage Time
3–4 days in the refrigerator, up to 2–3 months in the freezer
Temperature
Keep refrigerated at or below 4°C (40°F).
Freezing
To freeze duck breast with plum sauce, ensure it has cooled completely. Portion it into airtight containers or heavy-duty freezer bags, removing as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating gently on the stovetop or in the oven. While freezing is possible, the texture of the duck breast may slightly alter upon thawing.
Signs of Spoilage
- A sour or off smell, distinct from the usual savory aroma.
- Slimy or sticky texture on the duck breast or sauce.
- Visible mold growth or significant discoloration, such as graying of the duck meat.
