Duck
Duck meat is considered one of the great protagonists of French gastronomy and, although its consumption is widespread throughout the world, its demand is increasing in our country more and more.
Almost everything is used from the duck and it gives rise to an endless number of different and delicious dishes. Its meat is very succulent and is considered very fine on the palate.
Duck meat is rich in water and, like all meats, contains proteins of high biological value. The fatty component of this meat is variable and depends on various factors, among which the origin stands out; that is, the meat from wild ducks is less fatty than that from farm-raised.
