Quick ideas for a holiday season full of WOW!

Back to news

By putting duck on your holiday season menu, you will be serving your guests a sophisticated meal that is just as flavourful as it is easy to prepare. Use it to prepare hors d’oeuvres, appetizers or your main meal, and you’ll see just how perfectly it goes with all kinds of sauces to delight your guests’ taste buds. And if you need more convincing, know that you can keep duck for two to four days in the fridge or for several months in the freezer. Get a head start on your holiday cooking!

These tips and quick ideas will help you make simple recipes that won’t fail to wow your guests.

 

Mouth-watering starters

Impress your guests as soon as they walk through the door with a platter of antipasti. Fill it with specialty cheeses and charcuterie, including Brome Lake Duck liver pâtés and rillettes, throw in a few croutons, olives, grapes and jams, and watch your guests’ faces light right up!

Finger foods, like chips and raw veggies, are another great idea to tide your guests over until dinner’s ready. Step up your finger food game with this popcorn with Brome Lake fat recipe!

Duck products can also go in all kinds of quick bite-size treats. For example, you could make mini duck sausage kebabs. Slice up the sausages, stick them on skewers and serve with spicy mayonnaise, onion confit or mango salsa.
