  2. Mash allspice, cloves and juniper with a crush into large crumbs. Mix with dry rosemary and Provencal herbs.

  4. Prepare brandy, salt, sugar and spices.
  5. Mix salt, sugar and spices and add cognac to them.
  6. Smear the duck breast on all sides with the fragrant mixture, rubbing into the skin and meat.
  7. Place in a container and leave for 6-8 hours, depending on the size of the breast.
  8. After the time has elapsed, remove the meat and shake off the salt grains that have not dissolved. Hang the breast over the sink to drain the moisture and dry it slightly.
  9. Then wrap the breast in a cotton cloth and leave to dry in the refrigerator. In the first 2-3 days, check the meat, if the fabric is very wet, then change it.
