Duck Legs (Raw)
Duck Legs (Raw) is a flavorful cut often used in French, Chinese and other cuisines; duck legs are prized for their rich, slightly gamey taste and produce crisp, savory skin when roasted or confited. Nutritionally it is a concentrated source of animal protein, providing about 16g of protein per 100g, while also supplying notable amounts of fat (including saturated fat), some omega‑3s and selenium. It delivers a complete amino‑acid profile and is very satiating, but because of the higher total and saturated fat content it’s often best enjoyed in moderation or prepared skinless/paired with plenty of vegetables for a leaner meal.
