What does CONFIT mean in Scrabble?

Meat, most often duck or goose, salted and then cooked slowly in its own fat, which also preserves it.

The word comes from the French for preserved, and the same idea is applied now to onions, garlic and tomatoes cooked gently in oil. A classic confit of duck leg is crisped in a hot oven just before serving.
