Preparation
- Brine the neck in a 20% wet brine for 24 hours.
- Rinse well and brown in the oven or on the barbecue (the latter gives a deeper and smokier flavor).
- Place the meat in a pressure cooker with onions, garlic, carrots, celeriac, celery, peppercorns, star anise, bay leaf, cloves, and ras el hanout.
- Add game stock and veal stock until the meat is just covered.
- Cook until tender in about 90 minutes.
- Open the pressure cooker, let the liquid and meat cool slowly to hand temperature.
- Roll the meat tightly into a log.
- Let the meat cool completely and slice into pieces.
- Meanwhile, reduce the jus to a glaze.
- Slowly warm a slice of wild boar neck loaf on the barbecue, continuously glazing with a nice layer of jus.
- Run the parsnip through the juicer and set aside 500 milliliters.
- Mix 300 grams of hazelnuts with 500 milliliters of water and then strain through a sieve.
- Add to the parsnip jus.
- Bring to a boil once and strain through a fine cloth.
- Add 100 grams of dried cèpes and bring to a boil again.
- Let cool/infuse for at least an hour (covered).
- Strain once more and mix with some nut butter.
- Bring 200 grams of butter to a boil and continue cooking until the butter changes color.
- Let it cook a bit longer until just before burning and then cool the butter quickly.
- Let it stand so all the browned proteins sink to the bottom. Then separate the butter.
