From What I know u r a a good creator( in French we say Creatif) that's your own duck confit, U do Not cook the duck in any spices or herbs or anything except the fat oil. you marinate it with all that then you wipe everything off. also not recommended to wash it off.
@djpapoonie Yes, there are many ways to cook duck - this was recommended to me by a French farmer in the Dordogne and I love it. I think I ate confit (and foi gras) nearly every day I was in the Perigord.
Nice recipe but you are very wrong when you say that duck fat isn't very good for you. Duck fat is not only superior to butter it has greater health benefits than olive oil. Do your research before you mislead people.
Glad you like the recipe. It's my understanding that duck fat is similar to olive oil and better than butter - but, it is still not exactly a health food. Sure is good to fry potatoes in!
Duck fat is, actually, good for you.
Studies have compared it to the merits of Olive Oil, and they reward the body in similar ways.

@antuerius True (although too much of any fat is not good). I think it's perfect for frying potatoes in..

Thank you. It's a little background music from the old French song, 'Fibre de Verre'.
