Breast Meat to Fat Ratio

To have a great tasting duck breast, you need a specifically balanced ratio of fat-to-meat. Too much fat and the meat is greasy. Too little fat and the meat is bland and dry.

There is quite a lot that goes into raising a duck that has the perfect balance of fat and meat. Growing the perfect duck is a feat of veterinary science, and requires years of farming and breeding experience. A good meat-to-fat ratio will provide you with a rich taste that is sure to please even your most discerning diner. Having a proper meat-to-fat ratio is also critical to maintaining tenderness when cooking meat products.
