Rillettes are a savory spread rooted in French cuisine, traditionally made by slow-cooking meat like pork, duck, or rabbit in fat until tender, then shredding and blending it with the cooking fat for a rich, creamy texture. Often seasoned with herbs and spices, rillettes are enjoyed with crusty bread or crackers as an appetizer or snack. While rillettes offer protein from the meat, they are also high in fat, particularly saturated fat, due to the added animal fat used in preparation. As a result, rillettes can be an indulgent treat but should be consumed in moderation if you’re mindful of heart health or calorie intake. Their flavorful depth and ability to pair well with pickles and fresh vegetables make rillettes a highlight of charcuterie boards and a beloved classic of traditional French gastronomy.
