Thanks to this, Pipka gained immense popularity, especially among the youngest, and became a holiday hit, wandering from TikTok straight to the stalls.

Polish goose is also appreciated abroad

Goose meat has long been recognized around the world, and Poland is one of the largest producers of goose meat in Europe. For years, the largest recipients of domestic goose meat were the Germans and the French. However, in 2018, there was a change and Hong Kong was at the top of the list of the largest importers. This shows the growing interest in this exceptionally healthy meat in Asia.

In Poland, there is a visible increase in the domestic consumption of goose meat. Just a few years ago, an average Pole was eating only 17 grams of goose meat a year. Currently, this indicator has increased significantly and is already more than 300 grams per year. This is as much as 20 times more consumption of this meat compared to the past!

Also at PROMAR we are not indifferent to the phenomenon of goose, in our offer we have a wide range of goose flavors. Starting from the sauce for stomachs, through spice mixes, among others: flavors for pâté, stuffing for dumplings, glaze or spices for roast goose.

To sum up, Gęsi Pipek is a culinary masterpiece of Jewish culture that delights with its richness of flavors and traditional recipes. Goose meat plays an important role during Polish holidays and festivals, especially in Kraków-Częstochowa Jurassic Highland, attracting crowds of food lovers. Moreover, the growing popularity of goose meat, both in Poland and abroad, confirms the fact that the culinary heritage of Poland is still a source of delight and inspiration for lovers of good cuisine around the world.
