What Is Moulard Duck?

Moulard duck is a hybrid between the Muscovy and Pekin duck, prized by chefs for its rich flavor, larger breast size, and tender texture. Often used in French cuisine, it bridges the gap between hearty meat and delicate poultry. Unlike standard duck, moulard has a more pronounced, beef-like taste with a buttery mouthfeel.

Health Benefits of Moulard Duck

Though indulgent, moulard duck also has some surprising health benefits when enjoyed in moderation:

High in Protein: Supports muscle growth and repair.
Rich in Iron and Zinc: Key for energy and immune function.
Healthy Fats: Duck fat is predominantly monounsaturated (like olive oil).
Vitamin B Complex: Provides B vitamins, particularly B12, that support nerve health and energy production.

Ways to Enjoy Duck

Duck’s versatility makes it shine across cuisines. Here are a few delicious ways to enjoy it:

1

Seared Duck Breast (Magret de Canard)

Pan-seared moulard breast develops a crisp golden skin while keeping the meat juicy and flavorful inside.

2

Duck Confit

Slow-cooked in its fat, moulard legs become tender, savory, and perfect for pairing with potatoes or rustic bread.

3

Grilled or Roasted Duck

Whole moulard duck or pieces can be seasoned simply with herbs and citrus for a comforting meal.

4

Asian-Inspired Duck Dishes

Its robust flavor pairs beautifully with soy, ginger, hoisin, or five-spice glazes.

5

Charcuterie & Cured Preparations

Moulard is often used for duck prosciutto or pâté, offering a rich and savory addition to boards.

Wine & Cocktail Pairings with Duck

Because of its bold, savory flavor, moulard duck pairs beautifully with equally expressive wines and cocktails.

Red Wines: Pinot Noir, Merlot, or a bold Syrah/Shiraz highlight the richness without overpowering.
White Wines: A full-bodied Chardonnay or an off-dry Riesling complements sweet and citrus-based duck sauces.
Manhattan or Old Fashioned: The smoky sweetness of bourbon balances the duck’s richness.
Negroni: Its bittersweet profile cuts through the fat and refreshes the palate.
Citrus-based cocktails (like a Blood Orange Spritz) brighten the duck’s deep flavors.
