&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Evidence of origin&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All of the links in the network are listed (hatcheries, food producers,&lt;br /&gt;
breeders, abattoirs). Documentary records are kept for eveiy batch of [[poultry]] :&lt;br /&gt;
declaration by the breeder of birds added to his stock, delivery slips for day old&lt;br /&gt;
chicks, declaration of departure for the abattoir and receipts for collection&lt;br /&gt;
of carcases from the abattoir, declaration of the labels used for the [[poultry]]&lt;br /&gt;
after slaughter and declaration of downgraded [[poultry]]. The labels are all&lt;br /&gt;
numbered.&lt;br /&gt;
Checks on the consistency of the above information mean that the origin of&lt;br /&gt;
the product can always be traced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Acquisition&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Link&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The link with the geographical origin of the product derives from the following&lt;br /&gt;
factors:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Historical reputation&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: [[Poultry]]-breeding in Gascony goes back to very early times.&lt;br /&gt;
It made particular progress in the 16th century, under King Henri IV. The Gascon&lt;br /&gt;
variety of [[chicken]] was especially renowned during the 19th century. The production&lt;br /&gt;
of free-range [[poultry]] was revived from the early 1970s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Present reputation&amp;#039;&amp;#039;: The award of the Red Label in 1976 testified to the superior&lt;br /&gt;
quality of the products and served as a means of consolidating their reputation. The&lt;br /&gt;
good reputation of Gascon [[poultry]] is attested by the development of sales since 1976. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Gastronomy&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Template:Indication Géographique ProtégéeFr|IGP]] Volailles de Gascogne can be conserved for a few days in the [[refrigerator]], wrapped into the purchasing paper and stored in the coldest compartment. [[Poultry]] is used to prepare a lot of dishes with variable cooking methods depending on the cut chosen. Thanks to its precious fowls, the [[Template:Indication Géographique ProtégéeFr|IGP]] Volailles de Gascogne is used for many local, traditional recipes. Generally, important and elaborated, second courses obtained with long and laborious cooking. This [[poultry]] is stuffed and enriched with aromatic [[herbs]], [[sauté]] in [[butter]] and cooked with local, aromatic [[wines]]. They can be eaten with [[foie gras]] and [[truffles]], but also with [[curry]] [[sauces]] or dry [[fruits]] accompanied with [[vegetables]] and [[potatoes]]. [[Roasted]] [[capons|capon]] with [[chestnuts]] [[roasted]] in its cooking [[sauce]], a traditional Christmas dish, is much appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;
