POULET JAUNE DE VENDÉE

POULET JAUNE DE VENDÉE (BLACK PRESTIGE)

Origin: France (Vendée region)

A superior French table chicken raised to the highest standards, this Classe A Black Prestige Poulet Jaune represents the pinnacle of traditional French poultry. At a generous 1.4kg, these mature birds develop exceptional flavour depth, succulent texture, and the characteristic golden-yellow skin that distinguishes premium French chicken from ordinary alternatives.

The distinctive quality stems from a carefully controlled slow-growth approach and a 100% vegetarian diet comprised primarily of locally grown corn, supplemented with essential vitamins and minerals. This meticulous attention to diet develops the bird's rich flavour profile and perfect fat distribution while ensuring complete freedom from hormones and antibiotics. The prestigious Classe A certification guarantees flawless presentation without tears or bruises and an optimal fat-to-meat ratio.

For best results, roast whole with butter beneath the skin and a simple seasoning of thyme, sea salt and lemon to enhance its naturally superb flavour. The additional maturity makes this bird ideal for classic French preparations like coq au vin or pot-au-feu, where its superior taste forms the foundation of these iconic dishes.

Producer: Produced by a cooperative of 200 farmers in the Vendée region under the Leon family's Black Prestige brand, with processing at their Carhaix facility. This cooperative system ensures consistent quality through identical breeding stock, feed formulation, and production specifications across all participating farms.
