The breeding of Bresse poultry is carried out within a defined area: a vast sedimentary plain rich in silica and clay. The soil, covered by an impermeable layer, is moist and abundant in grasses, worms, and insects that constitute a third of the poultry’s diet. These birds come exclusively from the Gauloise or Bresse breeds, which are white varieties. They are raised free-range, with access to grassy areas, and undergo a finishing period in an épinette for 252 days. Each poultry has at least 10 square meters of space in their range, with breeding, hatching, and slaughtering taking place exclusively in Bresse.
Take the capon out of the refrigerator two hours before cooking and let it come to room temperature.
Opt for slow cooking at low temperature. Be sure to open the oven only to quickly baste your capon with a bit of oil, ensuring it retains a tender texture. The key to achieving a capon that is both moist and slightly pink lies in strictly adhering to the cooking time.
