Bresse chicken


This is the most famous breed of chicken in France, it has blue feet, white body and bright red crest, exactly the same as French flag, and tasty. Bresse chicken lives outdoor for 4-5 months, nearly double normal farmed chicken, and eat good cereals.

The first thing I noticed is that unlike commonly available chicken, it has relatively big thighs and small breast, a good sign of an old variety not being messed with to get bigger breast meat.

It has a lot of fat under the skin, which helps to keep the flesh moist and sort of gelatinous.
