Recipe: Seared Duck Breast with Foie Gras Stuffing and Sour Cherry Reduction

I especially love to make this recipe for Seared Duck Breast with Foie Gras Stuffing and Sour Cherry Reduction a cold winter night.  Magret de Canard is best served rare or medium rare.  It is very easy to overcook the meat, which will result in a dry breast if you are not careful.  I always [...]

Recipe: Beef Tenderloin Tips with White Truffle, Shaved Duck Foie Gras and Celery Root Puree

Celery root puree, a combination of celery root and potatoes pureed and served like mashed potatoes, pairs with so many types of meat and vegetables.  I particularly like celery root puree with red meats and poultry.  I frequently add truffle oil, either black truffle oil or white.  Celery root puree is equally delicious with black [...]

Recipe: Seared Foie Gras with Braised Fennel and Cracked Pepper Caramel Sauce

I’ve probably said this about other foie gras recipes in the past, but this really is my favorite preparation.  The recipe is just slightly altered from the original recipe which can be found in Michael Ginor’s epic cookbook “Foie Gras: A Passion”.  The original recipe calls for a whole lobe of foie gras to be [...]

Two Excellent Fruit-Based Sauces to Accompany Foie Gras

Foie gras is so versatile, it can be paired with almost anything, literally.  I love to add a piece of seared foie gras to almost any savory dish consisting of fish, filet mignon, lamb tenderloin, chicken, duck, pheasant or other poultry, or game meats such as venison, elk and boar.  Foie gras is wonderful combined [...]

Recipe: Pan-Fried Duck Foie Gras with Rice, Honey and Soy Avocado Puree

I would never think to pair rich and creamy foie gras with another rich and creamy food such as avocado, but this recipe is surprisingly delicious, and easy to prepare.  The first time I seared foie gras I used this recipe from the cookbook “Tetsuya” by Tetsuya Wakuda, published by Ten Speed Press.  I followed [...]

Recipe: Duck Breast with Seared Foie Gras, Black Truffle Mashed Potatoes, Red Cabbage and Foie Gras Sauce

My favorite way to cook is to find a recipe I like, substitute about 75% of the ingredients, and create a totally new recipe.  Last night’s experimentation was a big success! This absolutely delicious duck breast and foie gras recipe doesn’t take long to prepare, but does require some coordination on the timing.

Any raw [...]

Recipe: Duck Foie Gras Sauteed in Verjus

This recipe is quite easy to prepare, especially if you have good quality stock on hand. Flash frozen portioned foie gras would work equally well in this recipe allowing you to skip the cleaning and deveining procedure.

Oaxacan Red Mole and Foie Gras

Having just returned from a two week trip to Oaxaca, Mexico, with a generous amount of red mole paste, I’ve been experimenting with pairing spicy red mole with foie gras and duck products.  I’m always amazed by the versatility of foie gras, and was pleased to find that foie gras does indeed pair well with [...]

Highlights from San Francisco NASFT Fancy Food Show

I’ve been attending the NASFT Fancy Food Show since I was a child. My great Uncle was in the candy business (we called it the candy show back then) and always got my family in for a day of total indulgence!  

Now, we attend the Fancy Food Show with a different agenda. Though I [...]

Recipe: Medallions of Ahi Tuna and Seared Foie Gras with Pinot Noir Sauce

I’ve been wanting to try this recipe for Medallions of Ahi Tuna and Seared Foie Gras with Pinot Noir Sauce for quite some time now, and New Year’s Eve was the perfect occasion!  It worked out well, because I was able to do the sauce and the preparation for the potatoes and mushrooms ahead of [...]
