Fois Gras de Canard

Here another Specialty from France,
Fois Gras. I picture already my colleague Brice getting homesick and commenting on Facebook about this great delicatess from his home country.

For some people this kind of food might be very controversial, since the ducks have been specially fattened in order to get a big liver and fat.


Interesting is also that the technique used to conserve this product is more than 4500 Years old.
If you want to learn more about that product I suggest to visit Wikipedia

I taste this product once a year at Xmas, on plain toast bread, and can tell you, its delicious !
