Tips:
1. Foie gras doesn't like things with bitter taste, and doesn't like things with too strong taste. Avoid lettuce with too much mustard and vinegar.
2. The preparation of foie gras is not difficult, but it is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Foie gras can't be overcooked, it will become old and lose its delicate taste.
3. Duck liver is thinner and longer, while foie gras is rounder; duck liver has a stronger taste than foie gras, and more spices must be added during processing; in terms of taste when eating, foie gras is softer than duck liver; when cooking, Due to the high water content of duck liver, the shrinkage ratio is greater than that of foie gras.
4. Fresh foie gras should have a firm texture and a shiny surface when touched. Foie gras should be uniform in color, and bloodshot or bruises are not top-grade.
