Magret Duck Breast, Raw
Magret duck breast is a premium poultry cut from Moulard ducks (a Pekin-Muscovy crossbreed), characterized by its thick subcutaneous fat layer and deep red meat. This French-origin cut contains nearly twice the monounsaturated fats of chicken breast while providing 20-25 grams of protein per 100g serving, with the fat layer rendering into crisp skin when properly pan-seared. Prized in haute cuisine, it forms the centerpiece of dishes like duck à l'orange and pairs exceptionally with tart fruit reductions that balance its richness.
