Cooking Methods: Pan-Sear, Pan-Roast, Sous Vide, Grill, Cure
Cooking Tips: Magret duck breast is best served medium-rare. Whether pan-searing, roasting, or grilling, score the fat layer before cooking to render and crisp. After resting, slice the magret against the grain in 1/4-inch slices before dressing with your favorite sauce.
We work with New York State and Canadian duck farms to provide us with Moulard duck.
Our Moulard ducks are raised in open-air barns, on a bedding of wood shavings with plenty of space and sunlight, and environment that allows natural flocking behavior. The ducks eat a vegetarian diet of corn, soy and fresh, clean water.
The duck farms do their own hand processing in certified and inspected plants and use air-chilling to ensure the best flavor and the least amount of water retention.
