I'm spelling this the right way, not how it looks on the card with it's ancient calligraphy. 

 

 

 

 

(Shane's witty narration)

Ingredients

2 ducks  
Livers from the two ducks
Two oranges, peeled
2 tsp. beef stock
pinch cayenne
1/2 cup port

Process

1. Roast ducks as usual (like a boss). 
2. Parboil and puree the livers
3. (This is my favorite transition) Meantime, cut rind from two oranges, and shred into tiny match sticks. 
4. Par boil rind match sticks for 2 minutes in just enough water to cover.
5. Drain and pat dry.
6. Add the match sticks to a double boiler with the juice of the two oranges, the  skimmed pan drippings from the duck, beef stock, and cayenne.
7.  Simmer 2 or 3 minutes
8. Add the livers and port. 
10. Heat through and place into gravy boat. 
11. Serve ducks on platter, garnished with orange slices with sauce on the side.
