Active ingredients & science

Goose fat consists mainly of triglycerides, with monounsaturated fatty acids—primarily oleic acid (omega-9)—as the predominant fatty acid. The fat also contains saturated fatty acids and a smaller proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids.

Benefits & uses

• Versatile in the kitchen: Ideal for frying, sautéing and baking when a stable cooking fat with a fine flavour is required.
• Traditional preservation: Used for confit, where meat or vegetables are slowly cooked in fat to add flavour and succulence.
• High heat stability: Its fatty acid composition means the fat can withstand higher temperatures without oxidising as quickly as many vegetable oils.
• Natural origin: For those seeking a pure animal fat with no additives and a distinctive, mild flavour profile.

Use & dosage

Desmal - Goose Fat can be used as a substitute for other animal fats or oils in cooking. For frying and sautéing, use one tablespoon or adjust as needed depending on the amount of food. Larger quantities are often used for confit, to completely cover the ingredients during cooking. Goose fat can be combined with herbs and spices to create your own flavourings. After opening, it is best to store the fat in a cool, dry place to preserve its quality and flavour.

Quality & manufacturing

Desmal is committed to a careful manufacturing process, sourcing its raw ingredients from selected farms with a focus on animal welfare. The goose fat is gently purified to preserve its natural properties and flavour, without additives. Production follows high quality and hygiene standards and complies with applicable food legislation. The packaging is designed to protect the fat from light and oxygen, extending its shelf life. Desmal continually carries out quality assurance and testing to ensure that every batch meets the required purity and flavour profile.
