Wild boar
A cousin of the pig, the wild boar nevertheless has little in common with it when it comes to cooking. Like all game, wild boar meat is characterised by a strong, powerful flavour that pairs perfectly with long-cooked recipes, often in a sauce.
You can confidently cook wild boar with other bold-flavoured ingredients such as lardons or red wine. The wild boar stew recipe you will find below has already gathered over 150 comments, and its author, Michelin-starred chef Patrick Asfaux, gives you all the details to make it a success. So even if it's your first time, don't hesitate — trust us to guide you towards a perfect dish. If you're feeling even more adventurous, we also offer a recipe combining wild boar and foie gras, made using the leftover sauce from the stew — so whatever you do, don't throw away the extra sauce! All that's left is to find a hunter friend who will become your wild boar supplier...
