Tell us about your star ingredient.

The people here think of duck as being a typically French product. It has a unique taste, with depth and character. We used to bring in ducks from France, from the Landes region, but now we have a duck farmer here in Argentina, in Mendoza. In Uruguay we still import Landes ducks, and we also get a few wild ducks from the lagoons and rice fields of Rocha province. One of our main specialties is pressed duck. I love twice-cooked duck — first we roast it whole, then after carving off the fillets and supremes, we confit the legs to be served in the next course, with a green salad and a diablo sauce.
