- Day before: Keep the foie gras intact. Carefully scrape away any green gall traces. Season all sides with salt and pepper, then macerate overnight in the refrigerator.
- Next day: Remove foie gras 1 hour before cooking. Immerse in boiling chicken broth and simmer for 10 minutes over low heat.
- Transfer foie gras to a bowl. Add Jurançon wine and ginger julienne to the broth, then bring to a boil.
- Strain the hot broth over the foie gras. Infuse with a parsley bouquet, seared orange peel, and cinnamon bark.
- Refrigerate the covered bowl for at least 24 hours before serving.
- To serve: Remove the protective fat film from the surface. Slice foie gras into 1 cm thick pieces. Arrange on chilled plates and gently glaze with the aromatic nage.
Pro Tip: The natural fat layer acts as a seal, preserving the foie gras for up to 1 month if undisturbed. Store properly for optimal freshness and flavor.
