I bought a jar containing an entire duck foie gras in France. It's in
a glass jar sealed with a rubber gasket. I doubt the seal is as tight
as commerical products although it has not leaked.
Is fois gras preserved like this safe to eat? I bought it at a food
show in Paris and the dealer who sold it said it was OK out of the
refrigerator. It was not refrigerated at the time but I noticed in the
airport that similar glass jars were refrigerated.
I want to give this foie gras to a friend but I don't want to poison
them.
