Serving Suggestions:
To reveal the full flavour of your rillettes we recommend you stir them lightly before serving.
For the perfect sandwich half a farm bread baguette, spread with the goose rillettes add 2 or 3 slices of boiled egg and the same of tomato, red onion and gherkin.
Serve with Flavour Pearls (Balsamic, Lemon Black Pepper or Native Bush Tomato). Delicious on Margaret River Crackers.
A slight surface oxidation is normal and is the guarantee of a traditional terrine with no preservative.
Rillettes is a preservation method similar to confit where meat is seasoned then slow cooked submerged in fat and cooked at a grandmotherly pace for several hours (4 to 10 hours). The meat is shredded. Rillettes are most commonly made with pork, but also made with other meats such as goose, duck, chicken, rabbit and sometimes with fish… Rillettes are best served at room temperature spread thickly on toasted bread.
Gourmet Traveller Magazine “Those who like things rustic will appreciate the gamey intensity free-range goose meat brings to the equation. Have some cornichons handy to cut through, it, or put it to use in a simple sandwich with boiled eggs, red onion, tomato and gherkin” (edition Oct 2019).
