  1. Venison Prosciutto ...

    Thanks for your comment ... I don't remove the lard personally until I want to carve it up. Yes beeswax can be painted straight over the mould. If concerned about your yellow mould, the beeswax is not an essential step, and you can continue to air cure until the desired weight is lost. All the...
  2. Venison Country Pâté (Pâté de Campagne) with Calvados and Green Peppercorns

    Another tip, which I failed to mention above, is that I often soak the liver in milk overnight to help draw some of the blood and metallic taste out.

    Haha ... No, but if I ever get struck of the medical register I might give it a go!
  4. Venison Country Pâté (Pâté de Campagne) with Calvados and Green Peppercorns

    For those of you that like to try and use as much of the animal as possible, this recipe is great for making use of the offal and caul fat. I love pâté but appreciate venison liver can often be quite strong. Making a country style pâté, or as the French would call it a 'Pâté de Campagne'...
  5. One for the home brewers (a carbonating question)

    Use this ... Will give you consistent perfect carbonation everytime. Simply draw a line from the temperature when you're bottling through the CO2 volumes you want (I use 2.8-3 for my cider) and then get the amount of sugar you need on the right. I also dissolve the quantity of sugar in the...

  13. Venison Prosciutto ...

    Yeh re-use the beeswax to your hearts content ... make the missus some candles - or alternatively whack it on the next cured venison leg!!
  14. Venison Prosciutto ...

    Answering a few questions .... ... after the leg is cured and then sealed, temperature was not problem - mine was in the garage all summer.
