rotuts

there are two tendons w duck  //  chicken // turkey // Long Pork // beef       breasts

 

as there are two pectoral // breast muscles in all of the above.

 

the most obvious is the rope like tendon , that connects the smaller breast muscle , the ' minor ' muscle

 

it is the easiest to tease or trim out.  its the first one you see , after boning out the breast form the carcass

 

the tendon on the larger muscle,  the ' major ',  is very thin when it connects to the rib cage

 

it can also be teased out , but then you probably have to ' pat ' the duck breast back into its original shape.

 

the ' minor ' is under the ' major ' on an intact carcass , and and that reverses after boning out the breast.

 

this is Chicken , but a new easy way to remove the minor tendon
