Origins

A long journey

The production of Foie Gras is a centuries-old tradition whose origins date back more than 4,500 years. A fresco discovered in an ancient Egyptian tomb showing a slave feeding a goose with figs testifies to these distant roots (Saqqara necropolis).

This production was widespread in particular by the Jewish people who, during their exodus, fattened geese to produce fat to replace lard (considered unfit for human consumption).

Foie gras was first served as a Roman meal in the 1st century BC, during a sumptuous banquet recounted by Horace. The Roman craze for liver fattened with figs reached such heights that from the 4th century, “ficatum” (“with figs”) became the term used to describe the liver of all fattened animals. It will give rise to the French anatomical term “Liver” several centuries later.

It was during Roman times that Foie Gras was first consumed in “Provincia” before spreading to other regions of Roman Gaul, notably in the south-west of France. Many different peoples within the Roman Empire, including the Gallo-Romans, became experts in preparing foie gras. Subsequently, the fattened animals and their livers were consumed in different preparations throughout the Middle Ages. Many regional languages at this time used terms synonymous with force-feeding. In the 15th century, corn, particularly suitable for feeding geese and ducks, was brought from the New World by Christopher Columbus and was soon cultivated throughout the region.

In the 17th and 18th centuries, fattened waterflies were part of the basic diet of peasants. Cooking and preserving livers and meats in fat made it possible to build up reserves, a major advantage when the modern freezer was still a long way off! Paradoxically, foie gras was also served to kings and nobles in pre-revolutionary France.

In the 19th century, the development of canning processes led to the proliferation of canneries which exported Foie Gras throughout the world where it would soon become the standard-bearer of French gastronomy. Since then, Foie Gras has been an integral part of France's culinary and cultural heritage.
