melted duck or goose fat or butter. you can purchase goose fat at bristol farms; you can save duck fat from roasting duck legs (also available at asian supermarkets; i usually get them on the same trip and make them first, to render the fat). you may supplement either 1 with butter if you need more to cover the gizzards. vegetable oil will not do. you will need enough to cover the gizzards in, a small high casserole ; i also use a loaf pan.
