David Chang Posted May 2, 2023 Report Posted May 2, 2023 Demi Glace, made from deboning 60 days dry aged rib rack and pellicles. Takes a while to make but worth it... 7
tekobo Posted May 2, 2023 Report Posted May 2, 2023 That looks really good David. Food tastes so much better when you start with a good base like this. The Husband does the stocks here but he has never gone the full demi-glace. Might have to persuade him that it is not as difficult as it looks!

Bunji Posted May 3, 2023 Report Posted May 3, 2023 I’ve never done a “true” Demi, but whenever I make stock I usually over-reduce to about the same consistency just for ease of storage. Pull some out of the freezer and add it to water and it’s back to being stock! Hadn’t heard of adding tomato paste before, I will have to give that a try next time!
tony b Posted May 3, 2023 Report Posted May 3, 2023 Or just buy it like I do! LOL https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ILZ9SNG
David Chang Posted May 4, 2023 Author Report Posted May 4, 2023 the thing is if i dont make stock or sauce from the bones and trimmings, then they just go to waste.. i keep fish bones in the freezer for this reason 😄 2
