Description

The Muscovy duck is a distinctive duck breed originally from South America, prized for its lean, tender, and flavorful meat. Unlike common domestic ducks, Muscovy ducks have lower fat content, making them a healthier choice for gourmet dishes. Their meat has a deep, rich taste, closer to beef or game meat, rather than traditional poultry. Recognized by their red, fleshy caruncles around the beak, these ducks are popular in high-end cuisine worldwide. Thanks to their unique texture and bold flavor, Muscovy ducks are ideal for roasting, slow cooking, and fine dining recipes, making them a staple in gourmet restaurants and specialty markets.
