Leesburg, IN – Maple Leaf Farms, North America’s leading producer of quality duck products, has added Duck Leg Confit to its retail product selections. Confit, prized for its rich flavor and tender texture, is a French technique for preserving meat in fat.
Prepared in the time-honored French tradition, Maple Leaf Farms Duck Leg Confit is seasoned and cooked slowly in its own fat using all natural ingredients. This preparation yields tender, flavorful meat that may be served as a main ingredient, or shredded from the bone and used for sandwiches, salads, pizzas or pasta.
Previously available only to the foodservice industry, Duck Leg Confit offers retailers a premium product that will lend a point of difference to their meat department selection.
“We are excited to offer this product to the retail market,” says Duck Marketing Director Cindy Turk. “Our Duck Leg Confit brings gourmet flavor to the table in just minutes for consumers, a real time saver in the kitchen.”
For convenience, Maple Leaf Farms Duck Leg Confit is available frozen in packages with two, 8-ounce legs per 16-ounce carton (eight cartons to a case) for retail stores. Manufacturer’s suggested retail price of the product is $12.99. Consumers may also purchase Duck Leg Confit directly from Maple Leaf Farms through its online store at http://www.mapleleaffarms.com/shop.
