Notes

If you have a thick slice of duck foie gras you can score it with a criss cross pattern on top.
If your pan is hot enough you should have smoke when cooking the duck foie gras and rendering the fat.
Do not overcook the foie gras: if the foie gras begins to shrink significantly it means that it is overcooked.
Frozen or fresh duck foie gras slices are cooked in the same way.
