Duck Fat by Rougie

Duck fat is a classic French kitchen staple prized for its clean richness, silky texture, and exceptional versatility. Rendered slowly for purity and consistency, it delivers a delicate savory depth that enhances foods without overpowering them. Its high smoke point and smooth mouthfeel make it ideal for both everyday cooking and refined preparations – and it’s quite possibly the most delicious fat on earth.

Duck fat excels at roasting potatoes and vegetables, searing meats, and confit-style cooking, producing crisp exteriors and tender interiors with subtle, lingering flavor. It also adds depth to sautés, legumes, and grains, lending dishes a round, satisfying finish that butter or oil alone can’t replicate.

The Rougié family’s culinary heritage dates back to 1875 in southwestern France, where their dedication to ingredient quality and collaboration with chefs established them as a benchmark for foie gras and duck specialties. Today, Rougié remains deeply committed to craftsmanship, animal welfare, and working closely with chefs, making its duck fat a trusted ingredient in both professional kitchens and home cooking.
