Hi all, about to roast a 4 pound duck for the first time. I was wondering, of all the recipes I’ve looked online, why doesn’t anyone season under the skin of a duck like other birds? (Does it have to do with carving and presentation?) I had this idea to put minced garlic and spring onion under the skin, along with regular seasonings, before I let it sit in the fridge on a rack to dry overnight. Any thoughts? Would the garlic and spring onions under the skin make it less crispy? (Also, I do plan to score my bird tomorrow, so would seasoning under the skin affect that process?) Thanks in advance, advice is much appreciated.
