WHOLE MALLARD

Wild duck is a classic piece of game known for its rich and distinct flavor and versatility in the kitchen. It is a refined and authentic game dish that will certainly impress your guests!

WHAT MAKES MALLARD SPECIAL?

Wild duck has an intense and light gamey flavor, which is deeper and more complex than that of domestic duck. The meat is often leaner than that of domestic duck and has a soft nutty undertone. The meat is darker than chicken and similar to other game birds. Wild duck has firm meat and must therefore be properly prepared to prevent it from becoming dry. Our ducks are carefully selected from wild animals that have had a good life, so the meat is free of antibiotics or other artificial additives.

HOW TO PREPARE WILD DUCK?

Wild duck is suitable for various preparations. You can choose to roast or stew the duck, but you can also prepare the legs and breast fillets separately. Wild duck combines excellently with earthy flavors, such as celeriac and carrots, and with fruity flavors, such as orange or cranberry. You can also season the meat very well with thyme, rosemary, sage and bay leaf or with spices such as juniper berries, star anise, cloves and cinnamon. Add a delicious Pinot Noir to the table and you have a delicious feast!
