Castaing Duck Mousse 400g Barquette

Tasting Notes from the Curator

The buttery goodness of this duck mousse can be used as a pate spread on fine bread. It will make a great addition to your platter of appetizers. It will bring that extra touch of elegance to your table. Its maker, Castaing is renowned all over the world for its expertise on foie gras.

Preparation

Duck Mousse can be served directly as it is a ready-to-eat foie gras. It can be served with toasted brioche with a sprinkle of fine salt or Truffle Salt, if you wanted a more rich taste. You can also serve with a fresh baguette with fig jam, or on a slice of crisp apple.

Duck Mousse can also be used to enrich and thicken a pan-sauce. In for a more indulgent treat? Serve a generous slice on top of a hot steak and enjoy.

This makes a great pairing partner to some tawny Port, a vintage Champagne, your preferred Riesling or even a refreshing Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay.
