All About Our Foie Gras Torchon
A symbol of French culinary tradition, our Foie Gras Torchon is gently seasoned and rolled in a traditional cloth before being poached to perfection.

How We Like to Enjoy Our Duck Torchon
Our duck foie gras torchon is luxuriously smooth and ready to serve, perfect for elegant appetizers or charcuterie boards. For the best texture and flavour, remove it from the refrigerator about 20 minutes before serving and slice gently with a warm knife to create clean, delicate portions.
These pairings bring out its buttery richness and subtle sweetness:
- Triple Cream Brie Cheese: Soft, decadent, and mild, brie complements the torchon’s silky texture without overpowering its flavour.
- Spanish Iberico Pork Ham: The nutty, savoury depth of Iberico ham adds luxurious balance to the torchon’s creamy richness.
- Spanish Iberico Pork Salchichon: Spiced and delicately cured, this Spanish classic enhances the torchon’s buttery texture with a touch of warmth.
- Spanish Iberico Pork Shoulder:Silky and aromatic, our pork shoulder complements the foie gras’s velvety texture with rich, acorn-fed sweetness.
- Fig or cherry compote: A touch of fruit preserves adds acidity and sweetness, balancing the richness of the foie gras torchon.

Your Most Common Questions About Our Duck Torchon
How is Duck Torchon Made?
We make our duck torchon by carefully seasoning foie gras, shaping it into a cylindrical “torchon,” and gently poaching it to create a smooth, rich texture. It’s then chilled and aged to develop its signature buttery flavour and delicate aroma.
How Should I Serve Duck Torchon?
Serve chilled, sliced gently with a warm knife, and plated alongside toasted brioche or fresh bread. Complement it with sweet or tangy accompaniments like fig or cherry compote to balance its richness.
Is Duck Torchon Fully Cooked?
Yes, duck torchon is fully cooked and ready to enjoy straight from the package. Simply bring it to room temperature for about 20 minutes before serving to enhance its silky, creamy texture.
