Rougie Block of Goose Foie Gras in Gift Box - 5.1oz.

A specialty of Gascony, foie gras is one of the world's great gastronomic delicacies. These fully cooked foie gras have a wonderfully rich flavor and silky smooth texture, and contain the finest liver, seasonings, and port wine.

Traditionalists enjoy it on toasted bread with a glass of Sauternes, but it's equally good on a baguette with a glass of California red. If you want to be more inventive, try foie gras in salads, and if you want to be positively trendy, try it sauteed or roasted.

Which foie gras to choose - duck or goose? Both have their proponents. Fans of duck foie gras claim that it has a stronger, richer taste, while lovers of goose foie gras contend that it has a more subtle and nuanced flavor.
