Foie gras

What is "foie gras"?

Foie gras is a delicacy made from the liver of a duck or goose that has been specially fattened. It is a popular dish in French cuisine and is enjoyed all over the world. It is typically served as an appetizer or as part of a larger meal. It is usually served with a light sauce or reduction and is often paired with fruit or a sweet accompaniment. Foie gras is made by force-feeding a duck or goose with a large amount of grain or corn mash. This causes the liver to become enlarged and fatty, resulting in a richer, more flavorful liver. Foie gras is usually served as a cold appetizer, but it can also be served hot. It is often served with a light sauce or reduction and is often paired with fruit or a sweet accompaniment.
