GUINEA FOWL DE BRESSE

PINTADE DE BRESSE

Guinea fowl is one of the leanest types of meat available. It is particularly rich in protein, contains a balanced amount of good fats and is low in cholesterol.

These particular Guinea Fowl are raised exclusively in the small town of Bresse, which lies in the east of France. Like French wine, it all starts with the terroir: the particular and localized combination of soil, climate, and ecology that defines this micro-region. The soil of Bresse dates back to the tertiary period in geologic terms, which means it has very little chalk. In contrast, the soil from the nearby village of La Dome is strikingly different, containing a large amount of chalk.

PREPARATION

All of our poultry is prepared in house. We prepare each bird on the day it arrives to us from France. We use trussing needles to tie the birds into a the perfect shape for oven roasting which means closing any cavities so the birds cook evenly.

FROZEN POULTRY

For optimum freshness we prepare our poultry as soon as it arrives from our suppliers. Each bird is wrapped and frozen to -30°c using a blast freezer. This method prevents ice crystals forming in the meat so the bird is in perfect condition when defrosted, and offers exceptional cooking results.
