D’Artagnan’s Smoked Magret matches beautifully with fruits and salads: think blueberries, plums, pears, peaches, and greens like frisée and mesclun. Make a basic couscous with lemon zest and cumin and toss with plums and sliced smoked duck breast for a 30-minute dinner salad. Caramelize pears, peaches or kumquats and toss with julienned smoked magret and arugula for a restaurant-caliber entrée salad.
Smoked duck breast is suitable for any time of year and always makes an impressive addition to a charcuterie plate. Slice thin pieces and serve with cornichons (our favorite baby pickles), Dijon mustard, or—trust us—try it with truffle butter and baguette for the ultimate in hassle-free entertaining. And don’t forget a bottle of your favorite Rhone varietal for a perfect wine pairing!
