Makes a great gift for your favorite foodie! This classic casserole of preserved duck, sausage and beans is the heart of traditional Gascon cooking. This hearty meal is perfect for sharing with friends and a great bottle (or two) of red wine.
Cassoulet is a traditional bean and meat stew that is eaten throughout the Southwest of France, where it takes on an almost religious importance. Every town has a variation on the recipe, and each believes their interpretation is the only real cassoulet. Some use lamb and some top with bread crumbs. The D'Artagnan version is based on the recipe perfected in Auch, Ariane's home town. You will find no lamb and no bread crumb crust here, just the remarkable flavors of duck and pork and the traditional heirloom Haricot Tarbais beans, married together in the most authentic cassoulet, bien sur! It's easier than you think to make a cassoulet. To see the proper technique of cassoulet assemblage, watch Ariane in our step-by-step, entertaining video. For the true cassoulet experience we are now offering our signature cassoulet kit with a splendid authentic clay bowl, for a limited time only. This is the traditional way to prepare cassoulet: in a clay cooking vessel. Ours is hand-crafted in France by a pottery founded in 1875, and is emblazoned with the D'Artagnan name, making it the perfect gift for any food lover. The deep and broad cooking dish holds 8 quarts, which allows for a perfect crust to form over the top of the cassoulet while it's baking. Don't hesitate! We have only a limited supply of these beautiful bowls. The D'Artagnan Cassoulet Kit works perfectly with our Cassoulet D'Artagnan recipe and serves 12 people.
