Rillettes recipe from the duck This is the first post of a new one culinary series about the Regional cuisines in the world that we worked with Azlin Bloor from LinsFood start. In it we will introduce you to regional recipes that we brought back from our travels. Azlin is a cook and will show you in her videos how to cook these dishes. We start with a recipe for a dish I've been dreaming of for years: Rillettes de Canard or "Potted Duck" as it is called in English. I did this for the first time many years ago in a hotel in Quebec City eaten. It was served there every morning for breakfast. This delicious duck dish sweetened my Québec stays every morning. Rillettes is actually one french A specialty. However, it is readily served in the capital of the French-Canadian province, where traditional French recipes are often used. This dish was also easy for the French settlers to prepare. Poultry is plentiful around the province's lakes. Ducks and geese were already used by the French settlers as ingredients in their main meals. Even one of the earliest colonists, Samuel de Champlain, kept his companions in good spirits with good food. His Ordre du Bon Temps was a kind of culinary men's club in which each member had to cook a feast using the game they had killed. This is how Champlain ensured that his men survived their first winter in Canada. With good food and in good spirits. Rillettes de Duck certainly played a role in this. Ingredients for a roast poultry for a feast at Ordre du Bon Temps in Canada Where did the recipe come from? This meat paste was originally made in France. The type of meat can vary. They come with pork, goose or duck. Even rabbit meat is used for it. The canned meat dish is now also known in England. In Germany there is a regional specialty that reminds us of this. In the Harz, however, lard is prepared with more herbs and spices than in France. There it is known under the name "Pottsuse". The meat is cooked in its own fat at a low level until it breaks down easily. This can take three to four hours. Then the meat is chopped up. It gets its flavor from herbs, alcohol as desired and the meat's own fat, which ensures the durability of the dish. Place the meat paste in a glass or container and cover it generously with the boiled fat. This will make it last longer. You can also prepare the Rillettes recipe with fish. But I haven't tried it yet. How do you eat rillettes? The canned meat can be kept refrigerated for up to a week. But with us it rarely lasts that long. I like to do it for starters on special occasions. This year we're serving rillettes on Christmas Eve. With white bread they are also a good starter for the meal Christmas dinner . You can also take rillettes with you to a picnic. Add bread and the snack is ready. It tastes best on a simple baguette. The taste of the meat should play the main role. Then its taste comes into its own. Here I present you a recipe from Azlin Bloor from LinsFood before that is easy to boil. From Lin's YouTube channel I can highly recommend the video to anyone interested in the world's kitchens. This shows how to cook the dish. Ingredients for one serving Two duck legs Two heaping tablespoons of duck fat 250 ml dry white wine (optional) Three cloves of garlic Three sprigs of thyme Two sprigs of rosemary A teaspoon of black peppercorns A teaspoon of salt For the marinade: Two cloves of garlic A sprig of rosemary Two sprigs of fresh thyme A heaping tablespoon of salt A tablespoon of calvados For crushing and potting: Two tablespoons of calvados or brandy (optional) A teaspoon of salt Freshly ground black pepper Preparation of duck rillettes Marinate the duck legs overnight Crush garlic, thyme, rosemary and salt in a mortar until a coarse paste forms. Stir in the calvados. Rub the paste over the duck legs and into all folds and under the skin where possible. Put them in a container, cover with cling film and put in the fridge overnight. Cooking the duck legs Wash the duck legs well and dry them. Heat the duck fat in a flat pan over medium heat. Fry the duck legs on both sides, about two minutes each. Add the white wine. The duck fat will splash, so be careful! Then add enough water, until the duck legs are completely covered with liquid. The skin side must face upwards. Add garlic, thyme, rosemary, peppercorns and salt and bring to a boil. Then turn the heat back on and let the meat simmer for three to four hours. In the end, the meat must be very fine and easily detached from the bone. When it's done, take the meat off the heat and let it cool covered. Chopping and potting When the meat is cool enough, separate it from the bones. Remove the skin, tendons and ligaments. Put the meat in a bowl and chop it with two forks. Add cooking liquid and fat, that provide the taste. Add the calvados and plenty of salt and pepper. Then you fill the meat in glasses. Skim the fat off the cooking liquid and spread it over the meat, so that it is completely covered. Seal the jars with aluminum foil or a screw cap and refrigerate them for at least 24 hours to a week before you eat the duck rillettes. In Lin's video you can see how easy it is to prepare. We wish you good appetite.

The first time I ate Rillette de Canard, I ate it on the beach in Arcachon, right on the Dune de Pilat. A friend of ours brought it with her, spread it on a slice of white bread and placed salty potato chips on top. Covered with a second slice of white bread, she pressed it into my hand and said: Here, try this\! Now I had to think about it all day and try the recipe out\! Thank you\! 1. **Monika & Petar Fuchs** says: [March 31, 2021 at 15:32 pm](https://www.travelworldonline.de/en/duck-dill-recipe-and-memories-of-canada/#comment-33257) Hi Bjorn, I am happy if you like our recipe for Rillette de Canard.

## Rillettes recipe from the duck This is the first post of a new one [culinary series](https://www.travelworldonline.de/en/how-does-culinary-travel/) about the [Regional cuisines in the world](https://www.travelworldonline.de/en/tag/regional-cuisine-in-the-world/)that we worked with Azlin Bloor from [LinsFood](https://www.linsfood.com/) start. In it we will introduce you to regional recipes that we brought back from our travels. Azlin is a cook and will show you in her videos how to cook these dishes. We start with a recipe for a dish I've been dreaming of for years: Rillettes de Canard or "Potted Duck" as it is called in English. I did this for the first time many years ago in a hotel in [Quebec City](https://www.travelworldonline.de/en/travel/Canada-a/Eastern-Canada/quebec/quebec-city/) eaten. It was served there every morning for breakfast. This delicious duck dish sweetened my Québec stays every morning. Rillettes is actually one [french](https://www.travelworldonline.de/en/france-travel-destinations/) A specialty. However, it is readily served in the capital of the French-Canadian province, where traditional French recipes are often used. This dish was also easy for the French settlers to prepare. Poultry is plentiful around the province's lakes. Ducks and geese were already used by the French settlers as ingredients in their main meals. Even one of the earliest colonists, Samuel de Champlain, kept his companions in good spirits with good food. His Ordre du Bon Temps was a kind of culinary men's club in which each member had to cook a feast using the game they had killed. This is how Champlain ensured that his men survived their first winter in Canada. With good food and in good spirits. Rillettes de Duck certainly played a role in this. ![Ingredients for a roast poultry](https://www.travelworldonline.de/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/Zutaten-f%C3%BCr-einen-Gefl%C3%BCgelbraten.jpg) Ingredients for a roast poultry for a feast at Ordre du Bon Temps in Canada ## Where did the recipe come from? This meat paste was originally made in France. The type of meat can vary. They come with pork, goose or duck. Even rabbit meat is used for it. The canned meat dish is now also known in England. In Germany there is a regional specialty that reminds us of this. In the Harz, however, lard is prepared with more herbs and spices than in France. There it is known under the name "Pottsuse". The meat is cooked in its own fat at a low level until it breaks down easily. This can take three to four hours. Then the meat is chopped up. It gets its flavor from herbs, alcohol as desired and the meat's own fat, which ensures the durability of the dish. Place the meat paste in a glass or container and cover it generously with the boiled fat. This will make it last longer. You can also prepare the Rillettes recipe with fish. But I haven't tried it yet. ## How do you eat rillettes? The canned meat can be kept refrigerated for up to a week. But with us it rarely lasts that long. I like to do it for starters on special occasions. This year we're serving rillettes on Christmas Eve. With white bread they are also a good starter for the meal [Christmas dinner](https://www.travelworldonline.de/en/christmas-dinner-recipes-ideas/). You can also take rillettes with you to a picnic. Add bread and the snack is ready. It tastes best on a simple baguette. The taste of the meat should play the main role. Then its taste comes into its own. Here I present you a recipe from Azlin Bloor from [LinsFood](https://www.linsfood.com/potted-duck-rillettes-de-canard/) before that is easy to boil. From [Lin's YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWuRfodSgr69wLJfH36A3DQ)I can highly recommend the video to anyone interested in the world's kitchens. This shows how to cook the dish. ### Ingredients for one serving Two duck legs Two heaping tablespoons of duck fat 250 ml dry white wine (optional) Three cloves of garlic Three sprigs of thyme Two sprigs of rosemary A teaspoon of black peppercorns A teaspoon of salt #### For the marinade: Two cloves of garlic A sprig of rosemary Two sprigs of fresh thyme A heaping tablespoon of salt A tablespoon of calvados #### For crushing and potting: Two tablespoons of calvados or brandy (optional) A teaspoon of salt Freshly ground black pepper ### Preparation of duck rillettes #### Marinate the duck legs overnight Crush garlic, thyme, rosemary and salt in a mortar until a coarse paste forms. Stir in the calvados. Rub the paste over the duck legs and into all folds and under the skin where possible. Put them in a container, cover with cling film and put in the fridge overnight. #### Cooking the duck legs Wash the duck legs well and dry them. Heat the duck fat in a flat pan over medium heat. Fry the duck legs on both sides, about two minutes each. Add the white wine. The duck fat will splash, so be careful! Then add enough water, until the duck legs are completely covered with liquid. The skin side must face upwards. Add garlic, thyme, rosemary, peppercorns and salt and bring to a boil. Then turn the heat back on and let the meat simmer for three to four hours. In the end, the meat must be very fine and easily detached from the bone. When it's done, take the meat off the heat and let it cool covered. #### Chopping and potting When the meat is cool enough, separate it from the bones. Remove the skin, tendons and ligaments. Put the meat in a bowl and chop it with two forks. Add cooking liquid and fat, that provide the taste. Add the calvados and plenty of salt and pepper. Then you fill the meat in glasses. Skim the fat off the cooking liquid and spread it over the meat, so that it is completely covered. Seal the jars with aluminum foil or a screw cap and refrigerate them for at least 24 hours to a week before you eat the duck rillettes. In Lin's video you can see how easy it is to prepare. We wish you good appetite.
