About Confit
Confit is a traditional culinary technique originating in France, where meat, typically duck, goose, or pork, is slow-cooked and preserved in its own fat. This method enhances flavor and tenderness while extending shelf life. Though originally developed for preservation, confit is now celebrated for its rich, savory taste and velvety texture. Nutritionally, confit is high in calories and fat due to the cooking process, making it less suitable for low-fat or calorie-conscious diets. However, the use of natural animal fats can provide essential fatty acids, and the slow cooking method often avoids excessive processing or artificial additives. Confit is best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, and pairing it with nutrient-dense vegetables can add vitamins and fiber to the meal. Its indulgent, bold flavors make it a beloved highlight of French cuisine.
