Rillette is a savory spread made from meat that has been slow-cooked in its own fat or with added fat until tender, then shredded or finely chopped and packed into a jar or terrine. It is typically seasoned with herbs, spices, and sometimes wine or brandy, and is served as a pâté or spread, often on bread or crackers. Rillettes can be made from various types of meat, including pork, duck, or rabbit, and are popular in French cuisine. The dish is known for its rich, flavorful taste and smooth, yet slightly chunky texture. Rillettes are commonly enjoyed as an appetizer or part of a charcuterie board.
