RILLETTES PUR CANARD - DUCK RILLETTES
320 g duck meat, salt, pepper, onion, thyme and laurel
The meat is slowly and long
cooked until it looses texture.
RECIPE : How do we eat them ? most often cold on a
baguette, but they can also be served warm mixed with mashed potatoes. Heat up the
rillettes, slowly mix them with mashed potatoes, add a teaspoon of butter, salt and
pepper (just a touch, as the rillettes are already seasoned). Powder with Gruyere
grates and cook gratin in an oven.
CONFIT DE CANARD - DUCK CONFIT
Canard (Duck) confit : For preparing confit we first cut duck legs and fillets, keep
them into salt for 24 hours, then cook them slowly into duck fat (this is actually
the essence of confits, this cooking into fat).
RECIPE : How do we eat them ? Simply warmed up into their fat, and accompanied with
lenses seasoned with a sip of vinegar. Tip : keep the fat to cook potatoes...

or a potatoes salad and eggs.
CONFIT DE CANARD CUISINE AUX HARICOTS - DUCK CONFIT WITH BEANS
Duck legs and fillets slowly cooked in duck fat, and after with beans, tomatoes,
thyme, salt and pepper. With this recipe, two types of beans are available, small
or large (like the so-called Giants of Soissons), white, they give different but
typical flavors to this country dish. Just warm the jar content slowly, and enjoy...

CHOUCROUTE DE CANARD AU POUILLY - DUCK SAUERKRAUT COOK IN POUILLY WINE
This dish is inspired by a traditional recipe of Alsace, goose sauerkraut, modified
by the use of Pouilly sur Loire white wine. Pouilly sur Loire wine, made from Chasselat
grapes, is a little cousin of the famous Pouilly Fumé, made from Sauvignon.
Legs and
fillets are first briefly roasted in duck fat, with onions and bacon cubes. Meat
and sauerkraut are then slowly cooked together with Pouilly sur Loire wine, juniper
, salt and pepper.
RECIPE : You may add to this dish sausages, ham, and serve with boiled potatoes.
