Salt to taste.

Cook until desired temperature (medium rare is best) Once achieved remove the duck to a cutting board and allow to rest 5 minutes before slicing. Slice the duck breast on a bias thinly. Plate celery root purée in center of the desired platter then accordion the slices of duck breast along the edges of purée.
