Preparing Brown Stocks
(a) Roast the bones in a moderately hot oven until well
browned.
b) Place the bones in a stockpot and add the appropriate amount of water.
c) While the bones are beginning to simmer, brown the
mirepoix, using the same roastingpan set on top of the stove
or in the oven. Add the browned mirepoix to the stockpot.
(d) Deglaze the roasting pan with water. Add the liquid to the stockpot.
(e) This stock has simmered slowly for 8 hours. Note that
the sachet is tied to the
handle of the pot with twine for easy removal.
(f) Strain the stock through a china cap lined with cheesecloth.
White Stock Recipe :
No. White Stock Preparation
1
Place
the bones in
a stock pot
and cover
with cold
water.
1. Cut the bones into
pieces, 3 to 4
inches (8 to 10 cm)
long.
2. This exposes more
surface area and
helps extraction.
A meat saw is used
to cut heavy veal
and beef
bones. Fish and chic
ken bones don’t need
to be cut, but whole
carcasses should be
chopped for more
convenient handling.
3. Place the bones in a
stockpot or steam-
jacketed kettle and
add cold water to
cover.Starting in
cold water speeds
extraction. Starting
in hot water delays
it because many
2
Skim
the scum from
the surface
regularly.
1. Bring water to
a boil, and then
reduce to a simmer.
Skim the scum that
comes to the surface
,using a skimmeror
perforated spoon.
2. Skimming is
important for a
clear stock because
the scum (which is
fat and coagulated
protein)will cloud
the stock if it is
broken up and mixed
back into the
liquid.
3
Add white
mirepoix to
the pot.
1. Add the chopped
mirepoix and the
herbs and spices.
Remember,the size to
which you cut
mirepoix depends on
how long it is
2. Do not let the stock
boil. Keep it at a
low simmer.
Boiling makes the
stock cloudy because
it breaks solids
into tiny particles
that get mixed into
the liquid.to be
cooked.
4
Add a sachet
d’épices.
Tying the
sachet to
the pot handle
enables it to
be retrieved
whenever
necessary.
1. Skim the surface as
often as necessary
during cooking.
2. Keep the water level
above the bones.Add
more water if the
stock reduces below
this level. Bones
cooked while exposed
to air will turn
dark and thus darken
or discolor the
stock. Also, they do
not release flavor
into the water if
the water doesn’t
touch them.
Preparing White Stock
1. Simmer for the recommended length of time:
- Beef bones—8 to 10 hours Chicken bones—3 to 4 hours
- Veal bones—6 to 8 hours Fish bones—30 to 45 minutes
2. Skim the surface and strain off the stock through a
china cap lined with several layers of cheesecloth.
Adding a little cold water to the stock before skimming
stops the cooking and brings more fat and impurities to
the surface.
3. Cool the stock as quickly as possible, as follows:
Set the pot in a sink with blocks, a rack, or some
other object under it. This is called venting.
4. It allows cold water to flow under the pot as well as
around it.
5. Run cold water into the sink, but not higher than the
level of the stock, or the pot will become unsteady. An
overflow pipe keeps the water level right and allows
for constant circulation of cold water
6. Stir the pot occasionally so all the stock cools
evenly. Hang a ladle in the pot so you can give it a
quick stir whenever you pass the sink without actually
taking extra time to do it. Cooling stock quickly and
properly is important. Improperly cooled stock can
spoil in 6 to 8 hours because it is a good breeding
ground for bacteria that cause food-borne disease and
spoilage.
7. Do not set the hot stock in the walk-in or, worse yet,
the reach-in. All that heat and steam
will overload the refrigerator and may damage other
perishables as well as the equipment.Refer to food
safety guidelines for cooling on page 30.
8. When cool, refrigerate the stock in covered containers.
Stock will keep 2 to 3 days if properly refrigerated.
Stock can also be frozen and will keep for several
months.

Potato :
So much of what goes into making the perfect French fries
has to do with ensuring that the center of the fries are
fully cooked before the outsides get too brown. The way we
achieve that is by cooking the fries twice. We'll describe
the technique below, but first let's talk about what kind of
potatoes to use.
High starch potatoes like Idaho potatoes (also called Russet
potatoes) are best because they're denser and have the least
amount of moisture in them. Waxy potatoes will actually
hollow out when you fry them, because they have more water
in them and the water evaporates while they cook.
As soon as you cut the fries, you're going to transfer them
to a bowl of cold water with a tablespoon of lemon juice
added. Cut potatoes will start to discolor if they're
exposed to oxygen for too long even if they're in water.
There's oxygen in water, after all.But a little bit of acid
in the water helps keep the potatoes nice and white.
French Fries
Ingredient:
Potato
Salt and pepper
Cooking oil
Method ;
1. Peel the potatoes, and remove any eyes.
2. Cut each slab into ¼-inch strips. The fries should be
about 3 inches long. Transfer them to the cold water as
you go.
3. When the fries are cut, rinse them under cold water into
the bowl until the water turns clear. The idea is to
rinse off any excess starch.
4. Heat the cooking oil in a pot.
5. When oil are ready hot,deep fry the French fries.
6. Toast it,then seasoning with salt ang pepper.
