If Epiphany is over and you’ve already gobbled up tons of frangipane, we’ve come up with an unusual alternative to prolong the tradition. With its galette cochonne, Maison Vérot offers a savory version of the traditional galette des rois, with a highly gourmet recipe based on foie gras and charcuterie. Will you dare to try it?
Maison Vérot proposes an unusual galette cochonne for Epiphany
Maison Vérot, a charcutier of excellence since 1930, offers a daring and tasty alternative to the traditional sweet galette des rois: the galette cochonne, a savory creation that combines terroir and refinement. Available every year for Epiphany, this galette features exceptional ingredients and traditional know-how.
The galette cochonne is distinguished by its stuffing made from Perche pig and duck foie gras. The pig, raised in the traditional way by a long-standing partner breeder, brings a soft texture and rustic flavor. The foie gras adds a touch of finesse and richness. The whole is wrapped in pure butter puff pastry, crisp and golden to perfection.
True to its values, Maison Vérot favors quality products sourced locally and sustainably. The pigs come from the Perche region, renowned for its traditional pig farming. This approach guarantees not only authentic taste, but also respect for the animals and the environment. The galette cochonne is available in Maison Vérot’s Paris boutiques and by refrigerated delivery throughout France. It costs €54.60 for 6 people, and €36.40 for 4 people.
