Why It’s On Our Shelves
Slow-cooked British venison with sweet vermouth – rich, savoury and wonderfully indulgent
Cornish Charcuterie's Venison Rillette takes British venison and slowly cooks it until tender before combining it with pork, duck fat, capers and sweet vermouth to create a rich, rustic rillette with plenty of character.
Venison makes an excellent choice for a rillette. Its naturally deep, gamey flavour stands up beautifully to slow cooking, while the duck fat and pork bring richness and a soft, spreadable texture. Sweet vermouth adds another layer of flavour, balanced by the gentle acidity of capers and sherry vinegar and the aromatic warmth of rosemary and black pepper.
What does Venison Rillette taste like?
Expect a rich, savoury and distinctly meaty flavour, with the venison providing greater depth than a traditional pork rillette. The sweet vermouth rounds out the gamey character of the meat, while capers and sherry vinegar provide enough acidity to prevent the rillette becoming overly rich.
The result is full-flavoured without being overpowering, with a soft, rustic texture characteristic of traditionally made rillettes.
Traditionally made in Cornwall
Cornish Charcuterie produces its charcuterie on the Cornish coast using traditional techniques inspired by classic European charcuterie.
Rather than creating a smooth pâté, rillette is made by slow cooking the meat until tender and then shredding it, retaining more texture and giving it its characteristic rustic consistency.
This Venison Rillette uses 44.3% British venison, complemented by pork and duck fat, with carefully chosen seasonings allowing the flavour of the meat to remain at the centre of the finished product.
