Smoked Duck Breast – Moulard


Smoked duck breast is a treat and offers countless opportunities for  entertaining appetizers. It is also wonderful for salads, sandwiches, pasta, you name it. The Moulard duck breast is hearty like a steak, and offers more meaty qualities than the Muscovy or Pekin from which it originates. A boneless smoked duck breast is one of those “staples” to have in your refrigerator at all times for entertaining or a quick supper ingredient. Slice thin and serve for tasty appetizer treats, a must for your charcuterie board. Or toss bite-size pieces into savory bean dishes or popular “grain and green bowls.” This breast has been patiently smoked and offers a wonderful alternative to sausages or salumi with all the flavor but only a fraction of the fat.

Average smoked duck breast half is 12 oz

Reduced Shipping Costs

Many of our ingredients are perishable and therefore by necessity, require FEDEX Standard Overnight shipping. There is no way around it - it's costly, and understanding shipping calculations practically requires a degree in actuary science!

In order to help defray your cost of shipping, we have incorporated shipping discounts for many of our finer ingredients. These ingredients are noted on the web site and the discounts will be automatically calculated when the ingredient is added to your cart. These discounts are cumalitive, so you could end up with very low or no shipping charges. (dependant on your location)

The best part is that you might as well add that extra pound of mushrooms, a bottle of truffle oil, some pasta or your favorite "pantry staples" because the shipping costs may not even change!

Artisan/History/Story

Farm raised in the bucolic Hudson River Valley. These moulard ducks are raised with care by a respected duck farmer who has years of experience. Top chefs recognize the results of this farmer's care for every aspect, from feeding to spacious barns. Life on the farm . . . is a good thing.

How to Prep/Store

Store in refrigerator. After opening keep tightly wrapped. Slice very thin with a sharp knife or an electric slicer. You may remove the skin to reduce the fat or leave it on. Either way you have a low-fat flavor bomb of delicately smoked meat!

Recipe Ideas

Surely you have an apple and a chunk of cheese in the fridge? A quick and always popular entertaining option is to top a slice of apple with a slice of cheese (a nice creamy option like Havarti or fresh Asiago) with a slice of smoked duck breast. You can also serve this trio together de-constructed on a charcuterie board and let your guest assemble themselves. Open a bottle of Pinot Noir and you may not need dinner.
