I have never made anything more elaborate than chicken stock and never clarified beyond basic skimming. But I would have said I was fairly familiar with some of the more sophisticated stocks. I was incorrect. This procedure to add water a glass at a time was fascinating. This clearly (pun intended) yielded a superior end. Lighting and black back drop added an air of mystique, which echoes the sometime sorcery which is French cuisine. Great work maestro. Cheers from chicago.

So glad you approve of the back drop - As I film outside my van, it was either that or shots of the carpark!

I really like the dark background & the light. Reminds me of 17th C Spanish still life paintings inspired by Caravaggio.

Oh, I'll look into Caravaggio..

@@Petespans Caravaggio inspired the Chiaroscuro lighting in painting. He only painted one still life which inspired many painters after him. Amazing artist. He fled Rome in 1606 after stabbing someone in a ball game. I use to walk pass this intersection in the back streets of Piazza Navona on the way to work when I lived in Rome in 1992. As they say Rome is an amazing city.

I can see why a "pot au feu" would be so popular, less faff and very little waste. Beef stock paysanne not quite as thick.

Hey Andy. Yes, good points! This sort of thing is for enthusiastic student of gastronomy. Madame does say that the bouillon from a pot-au-feu should only be used in sauce making in the absence of a well made jus... Oui Madame!

There's no such thing as 'bone broth' that is American nonsense, 'broth' is something made with meat, if it's a liquid of bone extraction it's 'stock'. Americans who can't speak English properly have subverted the perfectly appropriate word stock with the misnomer 'bone broth'...please don't perpetuate it!

bouillon d'os ... common term in France, and I feel an adequate translation (Madame uses 'bouillon' herself describing bone stock. What's your view on "vegetable stock"
