It uses the duck’s organ meat or “giblets” (liver, gizzards and hearts), which is a constant theme in French cooking; not only is nothing wasted, but the best dishes are usually constructed using offal or extremity cuts. Yield: 1000g Duck Innards = 1 14” Triangular Terrine Mold • 1000g duck innards • 2000g water • 100g kosher salt • 60g sugar • cooking oil, as needed • 140g yellow onion, julienned • 140g shallot, julienned • 30g ginger, peeled and sliced • 60g butter, cubed • 500g cream • 2 eggs • 20g kosher salt • 2g sodium nitrite • 3g white pepper 1. Combine 2000g grams water, 100g kosher salt and 60g sugar and whisk until dissolved to create a brine. Cover duck innards with brine, and place in the refrigerator overnight (12-24 hours). The next day, strain innards and rinse thoroughly under cold running water and allow to drain. 2. Heat a large skillet over high, and once hot, cover the bottom with a thin film of cooking oil. Sauté together the onions, shallot ginger with the butter, until the ingredients are soft and aromatic. Do not brown. 3. Add heavy whipping cream and bring to a gentle simmer, reducing heat as necessary to maintain the simmer without the cream mixture boiling over. Simmer for 4 minutes. 4. Combine cream mixture in a blender, and blend on high for about 30 seconds, or until completely smooth. 5. Blend giblets in food processor for 30 seconds. Add in egg and cream mixture from blender. You may not need all of the cream mixture depending on the water content of the giblets. Your goal is a thin, pancake batter. 6. Pass giblet batter through a tamis, pushing it through using a plastic hand spatula. 7. In a separate container, mix together 20g salt, sodium nitrite an white pepper. Disperse mixture into pate batter and stir to combine. 8. Line terrine mold with plastic wrap, making sure you have some hanging over on all sides. Pour in pate batter, and fold in plastic wrap, starting with the two long edges first, and then folding in the two ends. Tent with tin foil, and place in a 4” hotel. 9. Place hotel in 375F/175C oven, filling the hotel pan with enough warm water so that it comes half way up the side of the terrine mold. 10.Cook for 1.5 hours. 11.Remove terrine mold from oven, place on a sheet tray, and remove tinfoil tent. 12.If the pate mixture hasn’t risen above the edges of the terrine, cut some strips of cardboard that fit perfectly inside the terrine, and place directly on the pate mixture, with a sheet tray or other flat object placed on top of the ‘spacers.’ 13.Place heavy weights on top of the terrine and press overnight. Step by Step Video: http://stellaculinary.com/podcasts/video/hcc-3-duck-pate Serving To serve as a canapé or amuse bouche, place a small amount of the pate inside a miniature fillo cup (a piping bag works nicely for this). Top with 1 orange supreme, a single strand pickled red onion, and a small piece of cleaned frisee. To serve as an appetizer, make a salad by combining cleaned frisee and pickled red onion, lightly dressing it with Stella’s Sherry-Shallot dressing, or a vinaigrette of your choice. Arrange the pate on a mound of this salad, garnish with orange segments, and serve with slices of toasted baguette or brioche. Sherry-Shallot Vinaigrette This vinaigrette is our all purpose house dressing used for simple salads, or to add flavor to a salad component, like the frisee salad served underneath our duck pate appetizer. This will yield about 20 servings of vinaigrette, but because of it’s acidity, it will easily last a few months in your fridge. • 1 medium shallot, sliced • 90g sherry vinegar • 200g champagne vinegar • 70g stone ground or dijon mustard • 120g honey • 40g salt • 21g sugar • 85g olive oil • 570g Canola oil 1. Start by adding all the ingredients, including the oil, to the blender. 2. Blend ingredients, starting the blender on its lowest speed, and gradually working it up to the fastest speed possible. As the vinaigrette starts to come together, an emulsion will form, illustrated by the vortex hole about the size of a quarter shown in the picture above. Once this vortex is formed and the vinaigrette appears to have a smooth consistency, simply turn of the blender. 3. Store the in a food safe squeeze bottle and refrigerate. It will hold in the refrigerator for at least 2 months. Duck Confit, Seeded Lavash, Pickled Mustard Seeds This is a classic amuse bouche at Stella, made up of three separate recipes. The mixture of rich, hammy confit, in concert with the crunchy seeded lavash and sweet- sour/punch of the pickled mustard seeds, creates a complex flavor in a deceivingly simple bite of food. Duck Confit - “Confit de Canard” This recipe is formulated using a percentage, which allows the cook to easily scale based on how many duck legs they will be preparing. If serving this duck confit as a canapé, plan on one duck leg for every 4 people. If serving as a plated entree, plan on 1 duck leg per person. For more information on how to scale recipes using a percentage, please watch our video lecture on the baker’s percentage: http://stellaculinary.com/podcasts/video/what-is-the-bakers- percentage-video Duck Confit Curing Salt Mix • 100% kosher salt • 0.2% sodium nitrite • 10% sugar (optional) • 0.5% black pepper • .25% orange zest • .25% fennel seed • .5% grains of paradise • .5% mustard seed • .25% clove • .25% coriander seed 1. Toast spices whole in a dry sauté pan until they become fragrant (do not burn). 2. Grind finely and combine with salt, sodium nitrite and sugar (optional). 3. Follow duck confit method below section. For The Duck Confit • 100% duck legs • 10% confit curing salt mix • 0.5% grains of paradise, toasted • 0.25% cloves • 1% garlic cloves, crushed • bay leaf and fresh thyme to taste 1. Line a sheet tray with a piece of parchment paper and lay down a thin layer of confit salt. 2. Place duck legs on top of salt, skin side up, and cover with the rest of the salt. Lay another piece of parchment on top, and weigh down with a sheet tray and weights (#10 cans, bricks, etc.) 3. Place in the fridge for 12-24 hours. 4. Rinse legs thoroughly under cold running water and pat dry. 5. Place in an appropriately sized, oven safe container, add in GOP, cloves, garlic, thyme and bay leaf, and cover with melted duck fat. 6. Cover container tightly with foil, and place in 200F oven for 6-8 hours, or until cooked through and tender. 7. Gently remove duck from duck fat, place in a new container, and strain duck fat on top, making sure the duck legs are completely covered. 8. Place in the fridge and allow to cure for at least one week, but as long as 6-12 months. For longer curing times, cover the fat cap with plastic wrap so it won’t absorb the aromas from other food in the fridge. 9. Duck confit video part one: http://www.stellaculinary.com/podcasts/video/hcc-1- duck-confit 10. Duck confit video part two: http://stellaculinary.com/hcc5 Seeded Lavash This simple lavash recipe yields a full-flavor cracker that pairs well with cheese plates, pates and rillettes. It's versatile in the sense that the seeds can be mixed and matched as desired, with my favorites being a mixture of sesame, poppy and sunflower seeds. Use this like you would any other cracker, but you can take pride in the fact that it's home made.

The firBt experiment was carried out at a commercial farm, with birds housed in pens, each containing 10-12 pairs. Two pelleted feeds of different protein concentrations (low protein (LP) with l&V. CP and 2937 kcal ME/kg, and high protein (HP) with 22% CP and 2783 kcal ME/kg) were fed, with and without whole yellov corn, cafeteria-style. A low protein intake was observed with LP + corn, which adversely affected squab growth and livability, without affecting egg production traits or adult body weight.

  • The Sexual Politics of Meat by Carol J. Adams
    THE SEXUAL POLITICS OF MEAT A FEMINISTVEGETARIAN CRITICAL THEORY Praise for The Sexual Politics of Meat and Carol J. Adams “A clearheaded scholar joins the ideas of two movements—vegetari- anism and feminism—and turns them into a single coherent and moral theory. Her argument is rational and persuasive. New ground—whole acres of it—is broken by Adams.” —Colman McCarthy, Washington Post Book World “Th e Sexual Politics of Meat examines the historical, gender, race, and class implications of meat culture, and makes the links between the prac tice of butchering/eating animals and the maintenance of male domi nance. Read this powerful new book and you may well become a vegetarian.” —Ms. “Adams’s work will almost surely become a ‘bible’ for feminist and pro gressive animal rights activists. Depiction of animal exploita- tion as one manifestation of a brutal patriarchal culture has been explored in two [of her] books, Th e Sexual Politics of Meat and Neither Man nor Beast: Feminism and the Defense of Animals. Adams argues that factory farming is part of a whole culture of oppression and insti- tutionalized violence. Th e treatment of animals as objects is parallel to and associated with patriarchal society’s objectifi cation of women, blacks, and other minorities in order to routinely exploit them. Adams excels in constructing unexpected juxtapositions by using the language of one kind of relationship to illuminate another. Employing poetic rather than rhetorical techniques, Adams makes powerful connec- tions that encourage readers to draw their own conclusions.” —Choice “A dynamic contribution toward creating a feminist/animal rights theory.” —Animals’ Agenda “A cohesive, passionate case linking meat-eating to the oppression of animals and women .

  • Fluid Fat: Considerations of Culture and Corporeality
    Fluid Fat: Considerations of Culture and Corporeality Karin Sellberg and Ann Sellberg 4:11 I can assure you is no time for indulgence, for silliness, to rethink life's bargain. It is the moment, instead, glasses askew, to lift each thigh from overnight caress of garlic, fresh bay leaf, home-harvested thyme, to massage flesh under cold water with priestly certainty, free all excess of salt, lay each upon its pallet of skin and fat. Gaylord Brewer, Duck Confit Duck confit is a traditional Gascogne dish of choice. It is a monument or celebration of the “peasant bird” (Schneider, p. 50); a method through which the delicate flesh is bathed, caressed and finally dissolved in its own juices – and primarily its own fat. The duck meat is meant to “melt on the tongue”; to disintegrate at our mere touch (dartagnan.com). Meat is separated from excess matter, and when this matter is reintroduced it proves simultaneously gentle, loving, disarming and destructive. The philosophy of the palate (or the plate) extends to the philosophy of embodiment – as this is indeed how fat tends to be thought of in contemporary culture in general. We separate fat and flesh conceptually, like we do on the cutting board (whether this be in our kitchens or our operating theatres). There’s no threat from fat. Yellow like butter, wobbly like a balloon. Shining, smooth. It cushions, it pads. It provides a shelter, a parachute, when at times the intestinal wall is breached. Such a friendly, unthreatening substance on the inside, and yet how we deplore it.

  • Exploring Turkey's Culinary Heritage
    EXPLORING TURKEY’S CULINARY HERITAGE A LOOK THROUGH THE HISTORY, TRADITIONS AND INGREDIENTS HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF TURKISH CUISINE Turkish cuisine is considered in the top five cuisines in the world. The vast geography that the Turks have lived in the past, the various climates, the soil and living conditions have enabled Turks to develop a very rich culinary culture. TURKS IN CENTRAL ASIA Before 11th Century The diet of nomadic Turks consisted mainly on animal products sustained in their immediate environment. They also led an agrarian way of life, depended on agricultural products as well as the animals they bred, and their products. In Central Asia, there were no definite borders at the time, therefore there was a lot of interaction between different kinds of communities. Turks that lived in Central Asia, encountered different culinary traditions and ingredients that they assimilated into their own cuisine. TURKS IN CENTRAL ASIA Before 11th Century Meat Consumed Dairy Consumed . Horse meat . Butter (Horse meat is high in calories . Kumiss therefore gives energy, .

  • SMALL-SCALE POULTRY PROCESSING Table 1
    SSMALLMALL-S-SCCALEALE PPOULOULTRTRYY PPROCESSINGROCESSING By Anne Fanatico NCAT Agriculture Specialist May 2003 Introduction A growing number of small producers are rais- ing poultry outdoors on pasture, processing the birds on-farm, and selling the meat directly to customers at the farm or at a farmers’ market. Many states allow up to 1,000 birds to be processed on a farm each year and sold directly to consumers with no inspection. Some of these small producers are go- ing further—building government-licensed process- ing plants to supply regional or niche markets. Spe- Photo by Paul Helbert cialty “religious kill” is often done in small plants. “Kosher” is the term for Jewish slaughter and “halaal” for Muslim slaughter. Access to processing is a critical issue for small producers. Consolidation in the meat process- ing industry has left very few small plants that will do custom poultry processing. (Large plants generally don’t process for small producers; they can’t keep track of a small batch of birds and can’t make money on small- volume orders.) This publication covers small-scale processing, both on- farm and in small plants. Relevant information on large-scale processing is also included for comparison, to provide con- text, and because small processors need to have some under- standing of how large-scale processing works.

  • LABELLING REVIEW RECOMMENDATION 40 Analysis of Primary Food Products That Do Not Require Country of Origin Labelling 1 Introduction
    LABELLING REVIEW RECOMMENDATION 40 Analysis of primary food products that do not require country of origin labelling 1 Introduction In 2009, the COAG Legislative and Governance Forum on Food Regulation (then the Australian and New Zealand Ministerial Council for Food Regulation) agreed to a comprehensive independent review of food labelling law and policy. An expert panel, chaired by Dr Neal Blewett, AC, undertook the review and the panel’s final report, Labelling Logic: Review of Food Labelling Law and Policy (2011) (Labelling Logic) was publicly released in January 2011. In Labelling Logic, the review panel recommended: That Australia’s existing mandatory country-of-origin labelling requirements for food be maintained and be extended to cover all primary food products for retail sale (recommendation 40). In the government response to recommendation 401, it was noted that at the time (December 2011), Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) was assessing a proposal that would (if agreed) largely implement this recommendation by extending country of origin labelling requirements to unpackaged beef, veal, lamb, hogget, mutton and chicken. FSANZ was asked to continue its existing process for the proposal and to develop a further proposal to extend country of origin labelling to all other primary food products. It should be noted that most packaged primary food products currently require country of origin labelling. Following consideration of Proposal P1011 – Country of Origin Labelling – Unpackaged Meat Products, the FSANZ Board approved draft variations to Standard 1.2.11 – Country of Origin Labelling of the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code (the Code) to extend country of origin labelling requirements to unpackaged beef, veal, lamb, hogget, mutton and chicken sold in Australia.

  • Container Food List Guide
    CONTAINER FOOD LIST GUIDE If you’re reading this, it’s safe to assume that you’ve done your calorie calculations and found your individual 80 Day Obsession Eating Plan in the Program Materials list, so you know how much food to eat—and when to eat it. These Portion-Control Container Food Lists help you determine which foods to eat for your best results. Here are a few tips to help you: ● Once you figure out how many of each portion-control container to eat each day, fill those containers with foods from the corresponding lists. For example, if your plan calls for 6 greens, fill your Green Container (Vegetables) 6 times a day. ● The foods on each list are arranged by nutritional value—the higher up on the list, the more nutritional benefit! ● Many of the foods are listed with specific measurements/amounts—10 asparagus spears, for example. If there’s no amount, just fill the containers to the point that you can still fit the lid on it. ● There are over 100 “containerized” recipes on the Fixate® cooking show on Beachbody® On Demand. And Autumn provides the container equivalents for each one so it’s easy to integrate into your Eating Plan!
