Hi!
What is the best way to have both medium rare (no gradient of temperature) duck breast and totally rendered, crispy, thin skin using the sous vide technique?  In a restaurant kitchen I never know when (or if) my duck breast is going to be served, so leting the skin dry out in my fridge before crisping the skin up is not a good idea. I have to use a paper towel to dry it instead.

I was thinking about doing smaller batches, straining, and then reducing it on the stove top so i can get another batch into the cooker. I can probably fit one MAYBE two chicken carcasses and the appropriate chopped stock items and water.

Lads and Lassies, Jacob talked about velveting before and I believe himself and Alex referred to it as the shizz nizz, assume that's a posItive. At the time I thought it was more related to Asian cuisine. On a chicken wing forum, I encountered the following post,
