Oil seal cooking originated in the southwestern region of France near the Atlantic Ocean and has a history of several hundred years. At first, it was oil sealed whole geese, which is believed to be related to the tradition of feeding geese with fatty liver by the locals. The whole goose is completely immersed in goose oil in a large pot, boiled over low heat for a few hours, and then stored in a jar for a winter. Later on, more people chose to use oil seals for its unique flavor instead of preservation. Although the Mediterranean region of France also uses olive oil to make oil sealed vegetables due to its abundant production of olive oil, the "orthodox" way of making oil seals is generally still to use duck oil for ducks and goose oil for geese. In addition, many meats can be cooked with oil seals, but traditionally, the term "oil seal" specifically refers to duck or goose that has been sealed with oil< br>
