Discover the rich flavors of Autumn with goose broth delight
Goose is considered a noble type of poultry meat. It’s essential to note that it’s not just about mere sentimentality towards tradition but also about taste and health benefits. Take, for example, the previously mentioned goose broth, the protagonist of this article. How does such a soup differ from the much more common chicken broth? Primarily in its intensity. This difference is especially noticeable in the autumn.

Is goose broth better than chicken broth?
Praising autumn goose has two meanings. The first relates to a legend dating back to the 4th century AD and Saint Martin, the patron saint of travellers and beggars. The second is linked to the rearing cycle of these birds. In the autumn, geese reach optimal growth, starting the best season for their fatty meat. The abundance of healthy fatty acids, iron, and vitamins (particularly niacin) makes this meat much healthier than chicken. Goose broth, therefore, comes out more intense, fatty, and rich in health-promoting elements. It’s worth opting for – that’s why we’re presenting a sample recipe below.
