In the ever-expanding menu of staple meal choices Australian’s are fortunate enough to enjoy, the addition of duck as a regular option may seem new, even though it’s been on the table in other parts if the world for hundreds if years.
Australian’s are famous for embracing new things. From technology to music to culture and to cuisine, Australians are among the most adaptive peoples on the planet. With the second most ethnically diverse population on earth and our love of food and celebration, it’s no surprise that we’re always on the lookout for new experiences and tastes to add to our repertoire.
Food is at the forefront of this adventurous spirit. Australian’s have enjoyed a love affair with fine food for some time now and that developing relationship with new ingredients and flavours is set to extend to the rediscovery of duck, now that Ezy Duck has created a quick and easy way for busy foodies to enjoy its succulent flavours.
Though poultry is a staple if the Australian diet, the majority of poultry prepared in Australia has traditionally been chicken. In the past, duck was something you went out to a restaurant to eat or prepared only for Christmas or special occasions. This was partly due to the simple impacts of supply and availability and partly due to the unfamiliarity this caused in terms of understanding how to prepare duck. As a richer, more complex flavoured meat, duck was associated with lengthy and involved recipes best tackled either by an expert chef or only when the occasion demanded, rather than being seen as an everyday dinner option for busy people.
With the rise and popularity of prime time cooking television shows and celebrity chefs, and a growing interest in preparing fine food at home, the challenge for producers was to develop products that satisfied that desire for restaurant quality meal options and quality flavours that busy, modern people could prepare quickly and easily at home.
Ezy Duck meets that challenge with a range of luxurious pre-cooked duck choices, where the work of cooking is done while the freedom to create and prepare sophisticated and mouth-watering recipes remains. Home chefs can choose from succulent Confit style Duck Legs, Confit style Duck Breasts, deboned and twice cooked Half Duck or a twice-cooked Whole Duck.
Pre-marinated for 8 hours then slow cooked for superb tenderness, the Ezy Duck range contains only natural ingredients and has a convenient serving option that you can create for any situation; a quick, delicious meal for one, dinner for two, or a dining-out experience for friends and family.
