Geese gorge themselves in the wild before their annual migration till their livers have doubled with fat, then migrate, and six weeks later, their livers are back to normal. Hunters called these geese foie gras geese. Their livers weigh over 200 grams just before migration, half a pound. Normally, goose livers are around 100 grams.

We do not support commercial force feeding of geese to expand their livers multifold, but use naturally fattened livers to make goose liver fois gras pate.

With a store bought frozen goose, look at the date of processing and buy a winter goose.

We fatten and butcher a farm goose once a year in winter. Our geese dont migrate, they are Farm geese called Lincoln Geese.

Here is the recipe for this delicacy, natural goose liver pate foie gras.
