7 hour boar leg

7-Hour Leg of Marcassin Recipe

I particularly like this cooking which will make the meat candy, an incredible experience and until you have tasted it you will not be able to understand this passion which revolves around the seven o’clock leg, or leg with a spoon. I prepared it for a friend Patricia and I vacuumed it, so that it was easy to heat it up. The sauce was ready, you just need to degrease it well and collect the marrow to bind the sauce, you just need to whip it up in butter just before serving and of course add a piece of very dark chocolate to finish the sauce. Good .. at the time when I type this recipe, I have no feedback yet, but I tasted the sauce and already it was a great moment, so no problem for this beautiful recipe of leg of boar seven o’clock. This recipe takes all its value with wild boar, a tasty meat without fat, it will gently confine in the oven, protected in the cast iron casserole dish. Check that your cast iron casserole dish is airtight during cooking.
