I just wanted to thank wheels for his blog post on deboning a chicken and making a duxelle.
http://localfoodheroes.co.uk/?e=628

My duxelle was with mushrooms, onion, spinach, garlic, smoked pork loin on one side and some spiced capocollo on the other. Mine doesn't seem to be as reduced as Phil's, but for a first time it was pretty tasty.
Duh .....After some researching (looked up duxelle in the dictionary) I found that a duxelle is taken down to a paste consistency.

Brilliant job Dan.

It's amazing how easy it is using this method from Jacques Pepin:

Yeah, Wheels irritates me he's so bloody good at everything... :D
Fair play to him for sharing his wisdom though.

A rare breed indeed, a TV chef who you can actually learn something from.

Self taught. :cry:

Comes from the butchering course I did at college, one of the things they drummed into us was learning the skeletal system so that when you look at a side of beef hanging on the rail you do not see the meat only the skeleton.

I have to do one for a client so will take photos as I go if that’s any help.?
