A delicious recipe for an amuse bouche of duck breast, smoked for additional flavor, combined with homemade cranberry compote becomes a delicacy.
Until Christmas a daily serving of Christmas recipes, DIY gift idea, home decorating table and fun gift ideas. Just because it's almost Christmas.
And today we start with an appetizer. An amuse, a small snack served on a spoon, which is supposed to be eaten in one bite. Today I chose an appetizer of smoked duck breast, homemade cranberry compote placed on a bed of arugula.
When you make the cranberry compote (which you can store for a week in the refrigerator, the amuse is made in a few minutes. And that's what I love when I serve Christmas dinner!
Because...
- you can make your own cranberry compote, you can add some port wine for extra flavor. Port blends very well with smoked duck breast.
- cranberry compote is ready in an eye wink, so you can make it the night before or in the morning day. Super Fresh.
- you want to add a slight nutty flavor, put the appetizer on a bed of arugula. And let's be honest it looks beautiful!
It's a good taste!
