Chicken liver

Chicken liver is a traditional product that has a firm place in German and international cuisine. Especially when it comes from so-called traditional poultry, the liver is characterized by its high quality, freshness and a particularly fine taste.

Origin and quality

Traditional poultry usually comes from species-appropriate husbandry. The animals often have more space, high-quality feed and longer lifespans, which has a positive effect on the quality of the products. The chicken liver of these animals is tender and aromatic, with a natural texture and without excessive fat deposits.

Nutritional values

Chicken liver is a nutrient-rich food and an excellent source of:

• Iron, important for blood formation and oxygen transport in the body.
• Vitamin A, which promotes eye health and strengthens the skin.
• Proteins, which contribute to the development and maintenance of muscles.
  It is low in calories, but rich in essential nutrients, making it an ideal component of a balanced diet.

Preparation ideas

Chicken liver is versatile and can be prepared in various ways:

• Fried: Briefly fried in butter or oil and refined with onions and apples.
• As a pâté: Finely pureed and processed with spices, herbs and cream to form a fine liver pâté.
• In sauces: As an ingredient in sauces, for example for pasta or as a base for classic dishes such as chicken fricassee.

Traditional significance

Chicken liver plays an important role in many traditional cuisines. In German cuisine, it is often served with onions and mashed potatoes, while in French and Jewish cuisine it is considered a delicacy in the form of pies or "chopped liver".

Sustainability

Those who value sustainability should make sure that the chicken liver comes from regional and certified husbandry. It is often a by-product of poultry production and helps to ensure that the animal is used as completely as possible.

Conclusion: Chicken liver from traditional poultry is a versatile, healthy and delicious food that can be a highlight in everyday cooking as well as on special occasions.

The chickens grow up on farms in family farming. This way we can ensure short transport routes.
For the animals, this means less stress and short transport times, which also has a positive effect on a more positive CO2 balance.

The legislator specifies a maximum transport time of eight hours. By building up long-term agricultural structures, we deviate positively from this.

All animals are kept in a species-appropriate manner in floor housing with daylight.

Furthermore, the stocking densities are below the legal standards.

Together with the farmers, we try to raise the animals completely without antibiotic treatment.

Some farms have been antibiotic-free for years.

The feed for our chickens consists of GMO-free complete feed and an additional 30 %
Wheat, which is grown by our farmers themselves and therefore regionally.
