GUINEA FOWL LABEL ROUGE

Origin: France

This exceptional Label Rouge French guinea fowl represents the pinnacle of poultry farming, raised according to strict quality standards that guarantee superior flavour and welfare. Guinea fowl offers a delightfully gamey taste that sits between chicken and pheasant, with darker, more flavourful meat and a firm yet tender texture that elevates any meal into something truly special.

Label Rouge certification ensures this guinea fowl has been slowly reared outdoors with access to natural foraging, resulting in well-developed muscle structure and outstanding flavour. The meat is naturally lean yet succulent, with a distinctive taste that's more robust than chicken whilst remaining delicate and refined. This certification is your guarantee of exceptional quality, traditional farming methods, and authentic French terroir.

Roast whole at 180°C for approximately 1 hour 20 minutes, basting regularly with butter and herbs. The breast meat is particularly prized and benefits from careful cooking to remain moist. Excellent served with autumn vegetables, wild mushrooms, or classic French accompaniments like chestnuts and bacon. Allow to rest for 20 minutes before carving.

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 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.
