Preparation

Sear the wild boar all around in butter and add garlic and thyme. Let cool.
Vacuum seal the wild boar with the jus and some garlic, thyme, and orange peel and cook sous vide for 20 hours at 68°C.

Sweat the parsnip in the butter until translucent, season with salt.
Deglaze with the milk and cream and add the herbs (in cheesecloth).
Gently cook under a cartouche until the liquid has evaporated.
Blend together with the hazelnut paste until smooth in a thermoblender (without the herbs).

Roast the hazelnuts and panko in the oven at 150°C until golden brown.
Make a caramel from the sugar and pour it over the hazelnuts. Let it harden and then grind into a fine powder in the mixer.
Mix this with the roasted panko and add Maldon salt and 5-spices to taste.
