You can't imagine a Christmas without foie gras but you're afraid of ruin you? I know 3 very simple tricks to get it for cheap.
If foie gras is the essential element of the Christmas menu, it is also very noticeable on the budget. This typically French product, part of the gastronomic heritage, is indeed as expensive as it is tasty . However, 3 tips allow me to find it at a smart price, to the delight of my taste buds.
But what is this thing? I told you about farmer's stores in a previous tip. Well, breeders' shops, it's the same principle:a suburban or provincial breeder has a shop in the city to sell his products.
As we do not go through the distributor box (like supermarkets or grocery stores), the products are ten times cheaper , especially foie gras! My favorite address in Paris is the Porte St-Martin market:I find farmer's foie gras there at half price!
In addition, with a breeder, we can discuss prices, so the reductions are even greater, especially if we buy in bulk. Another advantage:we are dealing with organic products, with well-treated geese, so the taste is 100 times better.
Foie gras prices skyrocket as the holidays approach. Normal, all latecomers rush on it! My advice is to do it from the beginning of December . Well packaged, the foie gras can be kept until New Year's Eve!
I never hesitate to collect orders from my relatives and even my neighbors to benefit from a really interesting discount at the breeder.
Anyway, what is certain is that community consumption is the future of the smart buyer!
