Duck Rilettes Tradition

This traditional duck rillettes is made from slow-cooked duck meat blended with duck fat, stock, and liver for a rich, spreadable pâté with deep savory character. Simple seasoning with salt, pepper, and spices keeps the focus on the natural flavor of the duck, while gentle thickening from cornstarch gives the texture a smooth, cohesive finish.

The rillettes has a pale, rustic appearance and a supple, meaty texture that melts easily on the palate. Flavor is full and savory with subtle peppery warmth and the rounded richness of duck fat, balanced by the clean taste of slow-cooked meat and stock. It spreads easily on crusty bread or toast and pairs naturally with cornichons, mustard, or lightly dressed greens.

Terroirs d’Antan draws on classic French charcuterie traditions to craft products rooted in regional recipes and straightforward ingredients. By focusing on careful preparation and balanced seasoning, the brand produces rillettes that reflect traditional countryside style while remaining versatile for everyday boards and simple meals.
