LOCAL PRODUCE

COOKED PORK MEATS, PRESERVES AND PREPARED MEALS

The tradition of cooked pork meats has been preserved by small manufacturers who produce salt meats, pâtés, and specialities such as rennet with garlic and pâté with truffles.
You will also find foie gras producers and snail breeders. Many artisans produce specialities based on mutton, including "fumeton" (smoked lamb) and "pâté de foie d’agneau" (lamb kidney pâté). The "queen" of these recipes is the famous "pieds et paquets" originally from SISTERON, made using lamb only. François 1st thoroughly enjoyed this speciality when he visited SISTERON in 1516, so it is literally a dish fit for a king ! In any case it always leaves a lasting impression !
