Foie gras allows the realization of multiple recipes: it is possible to consume it hot grilled in the pan, or once cooked, to make whole goose foie gras or blocks of goose foie gras.
Blocks of Goose and Duck Foie Gras are a preparation composed of several pieces of foie gras worked together and a little water (10% maximum) in order to obtain an emulsion with a totally smooth texture.
The advantages of the Block of Foie Gras are numerous: more affordable than the whole foie gras, it remains a 100% foie gras product with a very pleasant taste, easy to toast on bread or to integrate in a recipe (Tournedos Rossini, pasta with foie gras, sauce with foie gras).
Goose or duck foie gras

If your terrine or your boxes contain pork, it is not a block of foie gras but a pâté that contains foie gras.
