Civet de sanglier

Civet de sanglier is a traditional dish made from wild boar (sanglier), prepared as a rich, hearty stew. The meat is typically marinated in red wine with herbs and spices to tenderize and infuse it with flavor. The dish is slow-cooked with ingredients like onions, garlic, mushrooms, and bacon, creating a deep, savory sauce. The term "civet" refers to a method of stewing game meat, often with the animal's blood added to thicken the sauce, though modern versions may omit this.
