Looks very good, nice photo. Never tried Duck, rabbit once. Have a standard and a seafood. My problem is walking the line between crisp rice on the bottom and burned. I mostly chicken out. I have the proper pan. though it is too big for most occasions, so I use smaller cast iron.

Excellent preparation and composition of a classic dish. The duck must add a richness to the flavor. Well done.

The crispy rice, soccarat, is not as difficult as you might think. I turn off the flame when I just begin to smell the rice browning, cover the pan and let rest for about 10 minutes.

Fantastic. I learned to make paella in Barcelona. I will send a photo later this week.
