What bouillabaisse is to Marseille, cassoulet is to the Southwest of France: the subject of endless and spirited debate. Everyone agrees about the foundation, white beans cooked with fat, garlic, and herbs; this base gives the beloved dish its smooth texture and rich, creamy flavor. But the meats used to garnish the dish vary by region. In Toulouse, preserved goose or duck (confit d'oie ou de canard), mutton, and Toulouse sausage are essential ingredients; in Castelnaudary, pork and goose are the meats of choice; and in Carcassonne, mutton and partridge are de rigeur. Whatever the ingredients (these and other variations work equally well, to our mind), a homemade cassoulet is a labor of love, and many hours (Julia Child recommends two to three days). If you are pressed for time, you will be pleased to discover this ready-made version from Elevages de Périgord. Produced in Canada (the French don't have the right to export pork to the U.S. these days), this cassoulet contains two pieces of duck confit and two sausages per jar. Just warm it in the oven or stovetop and enjoy.

5Delcious Cassoulet, take it from a Toulousain!Dec 16, 2010
By E. Steiner
This is definitely a delicious product, very flavor and good portions of duck confit and saucisse de toulouse. I would advise to be careful with children as there will be broken bone fragments in the cassoulet from the duck which poses a choking hazard.

I also would advise buying from Marky's as their prices are far cheaper!

4yummy but still in the fenceOct 01, 2011
By MrsJjohnson
I had this product freshly made at a fancy french restuarant....the jarred version is almost as good. I will have to admit that the congealed fats were a little off putting before i heated it and also how fatty it is in general but the taste is better than your mima from france could ever make! Its good

3Its ok, not greatNov 30, 2012
By Mike Rambour
I was pretty disappointed with this. Its not bad, just not good cassoulet. I was hoping it would be as good as what I can get in France but its not. Cassoulet is so time consuming to make I was hoping for a shortcut.

5Have you seen how geese and ducks are raised?Mar 04, 2011
By Edward Stafford
They range freely. They come running when it is time for the gavage. I would not call this torture. Now if you want to talk about torture look at the factory farming of chickens here in th US.
