Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Crispy Wafers Introduction & Inspiration Crispy Wafers are just a fun little thing you can make with Pork Jelly Cubes and Bone Broth. They can be useful as a basket/bowl to place desserts or other ingredients into, as rolls or just simply eaten as is or with a little bacon mayonnaise or other type of topping, almost like you would do with poppadoms. The texture is also super fine like Filo Pastry. This plain version is wonderfully neutral. If you prefer a slight hint of flavour check out some of my other versions. They are also super quick to make. X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 30 minutes Serving Size 2 x Crispy Wafers Main Ingredients: 50g Pork Jelly Cubes 35ml Bone Broth Salt to Taste Recipe Instructions In a pan on low heat melt the pork jelly with the bone broth and a little salt (if using) and stir the mixture until everything is well combined. Just before the pork jelly mixture is ready (30-45 seconds), heat your crepe pan up on medium-high heat. Once the crepe pan is hot, pour approximately half of the mixture into the crepe pan and use a pastry brush and work quickly to brush the mixture over the surface of the hot crepe pan. You will need to give it a few coats. When the pan is sufficiently hot, you should see the mixture soon change to a light brown type colour within a few seconds. At this point, act quickly with a spatula to lift up the edges a tiny bit all away around the wafer and then use a pair of kitchen tongs to remove the wafer from the base of the crepe pan on to a serving plate. Repeat the above steps until all the pork jelly mixture has been used up. Your Crispy Wafers are now ready to use! Tips If you remove the Crispy Wafer quickly from the hot crepe pan and place it in a wire rack in a U shape, the wrap can be used as a taco holder. Ideally, purchase your meat, skin and animal fats from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. Check out my Pork Jelly and Bone Broth - Pressure Cooker recipes for instructions on how to make these. Bear in mind that the protein content of gelatine needs to be taken into account when you add fat for PKD purposes. (So for this recipe consider adding 16g fat). Video

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Oven Roasted Bone Marrow Introduction & Inspiration Bone marrow is the soft, fatty tissue found inside a bone which is loaded with nutrients and substances that the body uses to build, repair, and maintain our living bones and connective tissues. Its stem cells produce red and white blood cells and so it helps your immune system to work properly. Bone marrow is an essential part of the Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet (PKD). So don't be intimidated by bone marrow. Roasted bone marrow can be found on the menu in many fine dining restaurants, especially here in France. It's also quite affordable and easy to make at home. Bone Marrow is also delicious raw as well! I hope you too, will start to appreciate the many benefits of bone marrow. Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Up to 30 minutes Serving Size 6 x Oven Roasted Marrow Bones (Makes 240g oven roasted bone marrow) Main Ingredients: 6 x Beef Marrow Bones Salt Recipe Instructions Pre Heat your oven to 200c. Add the marrow bones to an ovenproof dish and season with salt on top of the marrow bones and underneath as well, to avoid them rendering quite as much fat during the cooking process. Put the dish in the oven on top of a baking tray. Cooking Suggestions *Bone Marrow from the fridge Cook for 20 - 25 minutes *Bone Marrow from the freezer Cook for 25-30 minutes *To Note : Adjust these cooking times depending on how you like your bone marrow. For an interior that is slightly more pink, allow slightly less time. For a more pale marrow, continue cooking for a bit longer. After 20 minutes, begin to check your bone marrow by removing the tray from the oven and using a spoon to take a look at the marrow colour. Once the bone marrow is a little springy to touch, it should be ready. Once your bone marrow is ready, remove the baking tray from the oven and let it cool down. From here you can do one of a number of things with your oven roasted bone marrow. A few ideas would be: Use the oven roasted bone marrow as the fat accompaniment to your steak or other meat dish and simply serve the bone marrow with a spoon! Scoop the bone marrow out of the bones into a glass bowl. Once cool, you can use an electric hand whisk to make Whipped Bone Marrow. Scoop the bone marrow out of the bone into a pan. Cook a little more on low heat, to render some additional bone marrow fat. You can then make Bone Marrow Liquid and Crumbs. Scoop the bone marrow out into a glass bowl, and either use straightaway in many recipes or allow the bone marrow to cool down fully before covering and placing in the fridge. Aim to use the bone marrow within 2-3 days. Tips If you bought some nice marrow bones but you are not ready to use them in the next few days, then simply freeze the bones, and cook them from frozen. (Just allow a little longer for the cooking time if they are frozen). Should you wish, you can put the marrow bones in salted water and keep it in the fridge to remove any blood traces. You’ll notice how clean they become. The marrow will be done when it is a nice golden-brown colour and springy to touch. You’re looking for the marrow to slightly pull away from the bone – if it’s too hard, they haven’t been cooked for long enough. You can also cook your bones at lower temperatures in the oven and allow a little more time. The bone marrow is very forgiving, so find what works best for you. You can also add your marrow bones to your slow cooker and slow cook them with beef cheek or oxtail for example. Ideally, purchase your bones from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. If you're not familiar with how much marrow certain size bones contain in terms of the fat content, push out the fat from the inside of a marrow bone from the fridge and weigh it so that you have an idea and then pop it back into the bone again. Use the Recipe Search functionality on the website to discover how to incorporate Oven Roasted Bone Marrow into various dishes. Save your bones so that you can make some delicious bone broth with them. I typically just allow the bones to cool fully and then place them in the freezer. I have found that when I cook my marrow bones in my LG microwave and convection oven, there is slightly less fat rendered during the cooking process than in my regular oven.

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Tasty Lamb Burger Patties Introduction & Inspiration Lamb burger patties are juicy and delicious! They taste lovely served with slices of beef crackling on top and eaten with the flat bottom pork muffins. The patties can be whipped up in no time, as well as made ahead of time. Give them a try. They don't disappoint! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 30 minutes Serving Size 2 x Lamb Burger Patties (9cm diameter) Main Ingredients: 200g Lamb Shoulder 60g Tallow Salt To Taste Topping For Burger Patties (For a good PKD ratio) 6g Beef Crackling (represents 10g fat) * Recipe Instructions Chop the lamb into small pieces. Add the pieces to a mini blender along with the salt and tallow. Blend briefly until all the ingredients are well combined, but avoid over blending. Place a pastry circle (or burger patty circle) on top of a piece of greaseproof paper within a large shallow dish (to retain the cooking juices) on a baking tray. Add half of the patty mixture from the blender into the circle. Use a spoon or burger patty press, to press the patty mixture down into a nice burger patty shape. Carefully remove the circle from around the patty. Repeat the above step, to make the second burger patty. If you're not cooking your burger patties straightaway, place the patties in an airtight container in the fridge, otherwise go ahead and cook the patties in the oven or a frying pan until cooked to your liking. Add the beef crackling to the top of your burger patties (to ensure a good PKD ratio) and drizzle with any cooking juices. Enjoy!

Use the Recipe Search functionality on the website to discover how to incorporate tasty lamb burger patties into various dishes. *The burger patties cook up really well in the oven. It's my favourite way of cooking them so far. Some fat will be rendered during the cooking process (approx. 30ml cooking juices per burger patty), so be sure to pour the juices over your burger patties at the end to retain a good PKD ratio. If you are eating the lamb patties on burger buns, then instead of consuming liquid fat (if you have issues with it), simply reserve this fat for another recipe and add some extra beef crackling to the tops of your burgers to retain a good PKD ratio. If you don't have any beef crackling available, then simply use pork back fat, lard, tallow, bone marrow or another animal fat to ensure a good PKD ratio of meat to fat. Video Not Available Yet....

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Beef Tripe Pasta Introduction & Inspiration The beef tripe sheets work perfectly to make 'pasta'. Clearly we're not talking about traditional pasta here with its huge carb load and detrimental ingredient profile. Rather, we are talking about fettucine style beef tripe 'pasta', which is a lot more beneficial to our health and well-being, and is delicious to boot! Making beef tripe ‘pasta’ can be facilitated with the Fettuccine pasta attachment for the KitchenAid, if you happen to have one handy. I always wondered what would become of these attachments once I changed to a healthier way of eating. I am pleased to say this attachment has got a new lease of life, making this healthier type of 'pasta'. Otherwise, using a regular old kitchen knife or pizza cutter is just as good for cutting your fettuccine style strips and is probably quicker, but I do love my kitchen gadgets! So go on, give this new style of 'pasta' making a try. Your body, taste buds and health will thank you for it! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time N/A Serving Size Beef Tripe 'Pasta' Main Ingredients: 1 x Beef Tripe Sheet Recipe Instructions Important: Make your Beef Tripe sheet as per the recipe instructions. Allow the sheet to cool down fully, before placing it in the fridge for at least one day as it needs to be cold and have slightly less moisture in it. If you make the sheet too soon, it may not cut well with the pasta attachment. Perform a test with a small piece of the sheet if need be, to check it's ready. Ignore this note if you'll be making your 'pasta' using the manual method. KitchenAid Method Cut your beef tripe sheet so that the width will fit into your pasta attachment. Add a 'Fettucine' attachment to a KitchenAid device, switch the machine on to a Medium speed. Slowly feed the end of one of the sheet into the machine, placing a bowl underneath the attachment for the 'pasta' to fall into. Reserve. Manual Method If you do not have a machine to cut the sheet into pasta style strips, simply place the sheet on a large wooden chopping board and cut long strips with a width of approximately 5mm for fettucine. Your beef tripe 'pasta' is ready! Tips As per the instructions above, place your Beef Tripe sheet in the fridge for at least one day as it needs to have slightly less moisture in it for a good cut. Ideally, purchase your offal from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free. Check out my Beef Tripe Sheet recipe for instructions on how to make this. Use the Recipe Search functionality on the website to discover how to incorporate Beef Tripe 'Pasta' into various dishes. Why not try making Liver ‘Pasta’ or Liver and Egg ‘Pasta’ too!

If you do not have any veal liver then you can substitute with lamb or beef liver. Adjust the broth amounts for a thicker or thinner creamy sauce, based on your preference. If your lamb shoulder is not particularly fatty, add some extra tallow to the sauce to ensure a good PKD Ratio. Use a digital thermometer to check the internal temperature of the lamb shoulder.

Melt the bone marrow until there is hardly any fat left to render. Pour the mixture into a glass jar through a cheesecloth to ensure the bone marrow liquid is as clean as possible, with no bits in. Pour the liquid bone marrow from the glass jar back into the pan (90g). Add in the tallow and honey. Stir frequently. Once the tallow has melted and the honey is totally dissolved into the mixture then remove the pan from the heat. Allow the mixture to cool on the kitchen countertop before mixing it well. Place the Easter Egg shell mould onto a baking tray. Pour the contents of the pan equally between 6 Easter Egg shell moulds. Once the mixture in the shells begins to start thickening, use a spoon to spread the mixture evenly to cover all the shells, so that there will be a nice even look to the 'chocolate' egg shells once set. Place the Easter Egg shell mould tray in the fridge. Liver Mousse Instructions: Rinse the veal liver under running water. Use your fingers or a knife to remove any silvery membrane that might be on the liver. Place the liver into a high speed blender. Add the hot broth and melted tallow to the blender and then blend well until all the ingredients are nice and smooth. Pour the contents of the blender into a small pan, and place on a low heat and cook, stirring constantly for 1-2 mins. Re-blend the mixture at the end. Reserve on the kitchen countertop until the mixture reaches room temperature. Once the liver mousse mixture is no longer warm and has reached room temperature, remove the shell mould tray from the fridge. Using a spatula, divide the liver mousse mixture equally between 4 of the Easter Egg Shells to fill them level with the top of the shells. Place the tray back in the fridge for the shells and the mousse to set. This will take several hours (or ideally overnight). Egg Assembly Suggestions: Once the egg shells and mousse are nicely set, carefully remove the 4 shells from the moulds. Place two shells together to form your 'chocolate' Easter egg. Repeat, to form the second egg. Tie some colourful ribbon around each egg to hold the shells together. Remove the two remaining egg shells from their moulds and add a few Spring 'Chocolate' Shapes to serve. Happy Easter! Tips *If you're still getting to grips with eating liver (a mousse version like this will help!) then simply substitute this with heart or lamb kidney and proceed in the same way to make the mousse. They are all delicious! **Any gelatinous and flavourful broth will work for this recipe. ***If you already have bone marrow liquid to hand, then simply use 90g. Otherwise, use slightly more oven roasted bone marrow as indicated, as some will be lost when sieving it through the cheesecloth.

Once done, brown the buns for a couple of minutes. Keep an eye on the buns towards the end of the cooking to ensure they do not burn! Allow the buns to cool once out of the oven before serving. You can also allow them to cool fully, before placing them in an airtight container in the fridge to have cold. Tips Ideally, purchase your offal and fat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. *These buns can simply be more savoury in nature by omitting the honey.

If you are unsure, refer to the Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet Rules document or consult with ICMNI in Hungary ( Home - Nutriintervention ). Any honey should be of organic quality, and is only recommended in small quantities for those who have recovered from any kind of health condition. 'Browning' Some functions of ovens enable you to brown the surface of the food by activating the grill once cooking is complete. When using the 'Browning' setting on your oven, monitor closely the crust so that it doesn't burn at the last minute. Check out my Pork Jelly Cubes, Lard and Pork Crackling - Air Fryer, Bone Marrow Liquid and Crumbs and Beef Tripe - Pressure Cooker recipes for instructions on how to make these.

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Flat Bottom Offal Muffins Introduction & Inspiration I love having a mix of offal in my meals and so it was nice to create these muffins for such occasions. They are delicious with a little pâté spread on top, as well as served warm with a rich gravy sauce. I hope you will enjoy them too! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 1 hour Serving Size 6 x Flat Bottom Offal Muffins (10cm Diameter) Main Ingredients: 125g Pig Brains 100g Veal Liver 115g Veal Heart 90g Oven Roasted Bone Marrow Lard or Tallow for Greasing Salt To Taste Recipe Instructions Pre heat the oven to 160c. Soak the pig brains in a bowl of aired water with some salt for 30 minutes - 1 hour. Remove the brains and place them one by one in the palm of your hand. Run a little water from the tap and carefully use your fingers to remove the thin outer layer of membrane. Take your time doing this and clean a little under the running water as you go. I prefer to hold the brains in my hand as I can then feel if there are any little bits of bone still left in the brains which isn't always possible to detect if you have the brains submerged in water for the cleaning process. Place all the ingredients into a high speed blender and blend until smooth. Grease 6 circular muffin holes in a silicone mould with lard or tallow and then add a sheet of greaseproof paper to the bottom of each hole (this will make it easier to remove each muffin after cooking). Divide the contents of the blender equally between the muffin holes with the help of a spatula. Use the spatula or a teaspoon to smooth off the top of each muffin. Place the silicone tray on a baking tray and place in the pre-heated oven for 35 minutes. Once, done, brown the top of the muffins for a few minutes so that they have a light golden finish to them. Keep an eye on them to ensure they don't burn! Allow the muffins to rest on the countertop to cool, before removing the muffins from the mould onto a serving plate. If you are not going to be eating the muffins straightaway, store them in an airtight container in the fridge. Tips 'Browning' Some functions of ovens enable you to brown the surface of the food by activating the grill once cooking is complete. When using the 'Browning' setting on your oven, monitor closely the loaf so that it doesn't burn at the last minute. Ideally, purchase your fat and offal from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. Check out my Lard and Pork Crackling - Air Fryer, Beef Crackling (for Tallow) and Oven Roasted Bone Marrow recipes for instructions on how to make these. Use the Recipe Search functionality on the website to discover how to incorporate Flat Bottom Offal Muffins into various dishes. You can use tallow or lard interchangeably. If you cannot get hold of pig brains, you can try lamb or veal brains. Video Not Available Yet....

Regime Type: PKD (With Allowances) Crispy Pulled Pork Bread Introduction & Inspiration Crispy Pulled Pork Bread makes a wonderfully healthy addition to any meal.

I am sure it will become one of your new favorites! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 30 minutes Serving Size 2 x Crispy Pulled Pork Bread Slices Main Ingredients: 2 x Pulled Pork Bread Slices 1 tsp Tallow for frying Recipe Instructions Make the pulled pork bread as per the recipe instructions. Cool and then place in the fridge in an airtight container. Remove the bread from the fridge and cut 2 slices of the bread (store the remaining bread in the fridge for use in other recipes). Add the tallow to a frying pan and cook on medium-high heat for a few minutes until the tallow has melted and is hot. Add the 2 bread slices to the frying pan. Use a spatula to flip the slices over every 30 to 45 seconds. Cook until the bread has started to crisp up and has a nice depth of colour. Remove the frying pan from the heat and allow the slices to rest for a minute or so. Your Crispy Pulled Pork Bread is now ready! Tips Ideally, purchase your meat and fat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free. If you do not have any tallow on hand for frying, use lard or another animal fat. These slices are lovely warm or cold, with savoury or indeed slightly sweet toppings! Be sure to use free range, organic eggs to make the pulled pork bread. Whether you can eat eggs may depend on your condition, medical history, the time you have been doing PKD and your health goals.

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Lard and Pork Crackling - Pot on the Stove Introduction & Inspiration Making lard and pork crackling in a pot on the stove is straightforward, especially if the ultimate goal is to make lard and have the pork crackling as a spin-off of that process. My preferred method for pork crackling crispiness is using the air fryer, but if that's not an option, this is a very good alternative method. It is quick and easy, doesn't require lots of clean-up and is not overly time-consuming. The result is a smooth and creamy lard which has a very mild flavour and no aftertaste. It's ideal for all types of cooking. Give this a try and I am sure you'll be pleased with the results! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than one hour Serving Size 330g Lard 75g Pork Crackling Main Ingredients: 475g Pork Back Fat Salt to Taste (Optional for seasoning the Pork Crackling) Recipe Instructions Chop the pork back fat into 2 cm cubes approx. Place the cubes into a tall pot that will hold a good amount of cubes. Melt the cubes on a low-medium heat (#4 or 5 for my stove which goes up to #9 ), stirring every few minutes until most of the fat has rendered (this could take approx. 30-35 minutes) and the pork crackling is to your liking. Check the cubes every few minutes towards the end of the cooking time to ensure they don't overcook. Carefully remove the pork crackling with some kitchen tongs or a slotted spoon, and place them into an airtight glass container. If you like these with a touch of salt (depending on what recipes you will be using them in), now is the perfect time to add some while they're warm. Once the Pork Crackling has cooled down, it can be stored in the fridge with a lid on for several days (although I have found that it doesn't last that long!). The rendered liquid, lard, in the base of the pot can be poured through a cheesecloth into an airtight glass container (sterilised just before with hot water). This will remove any finer bits still present in the lard. Allow the liquid to cool down, before placing the lid on the container and storing it in the fridge. Enjoy! Tips Ideally, purchase your fat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. Use the Recipe Search functionality on the website to discover how to incorporate lard and pork crackling into various dishes. You can also prepare your pork cracklings and lard using an air fryer. Refer to my other recipe on this. While it can be tempting to add salt to the pork while it is cooking, I tend to only salt my pork crackling once I have removed it from the pot, since I want the lard I am making to be as pure as possible and without any added salt. Pork Crackling can be used as your fat accompaniment for many recipes, as a change from other animal fats. Lard is a nutritious animal fat that you can make in your own kitchen without any special equipment. It has several advantages over other oils/fats, not least that it has one of the highest smoke points, so it is less prone to oxidative degradation. This makes it an excellent fat to use for frying and deep-frying. Video Not Available Yet....

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Beef Crunchies Introduction & Inspiration I made these wonderful beef crunchies with my younger brother in mind, to satisfy his ravenous hunger. They don't disappoint, and taste great both warm and cold! Beef Suet Crackling with a sprinkle of Maldon salt is totally delicious in its own right, so when some freshly cooked steak slices are sandwiched in-between it becomes a perfect snack or meal. I hope you will enjoy them too. X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 30 minutes Serving Size 7 x Beef Crunchies Main Ingredients Beef Crackling (See Tips below) 160g Beef Steak 1 tbsp Tallow Salt to taste Recipe Instructions Prepare the beef crackling pieces per the instructions. Salt to taste and reserve while you're ready to assemble your beef crunchies. Thinly slice up the beef steak on a wooden chopping board. In a pan on medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of tallow. Add the steak slices and cook for approx. 2 minutes on either side (or until your desired level of doneness). On a wooden chopping board, take your beef crackling pieces and cut each one in half horizontally. Take the bottom half of the beef crackling, add some steak slices on top, and then add the top half of the beef crackling. Secure the beef crunchies with a cocktail stick through the middle. Enjoy these warm or cold! Tips You can also use lard to cook the beef slices in, if you don't have any tallow on-hand. When judging how much steak and meat to use to make each of your beef crunchies you can roughly determine when making the beef suet crackling how much beef fat the crackling represents and then weigh your steak before cooking and after cooking so that you can calculate how much beef crackling to use for each of your crunchies if you are looking for a good PKD fat to protein ratio 2:1 . This is approximate obviously and you can also just eyeball the amounts. Ideally, purchase your meat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free. Try and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives. Video

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Christmas Snowman Introduction & Inspiration When I think of Christmas, I immediately think of the fun times spent building a Snowman and having snowball battles in the garden with family and friends! This Snowman was a pleasure to build and to devour! It is made with a minimum of ingredients that are all very nutrient dense. Enjoy! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time 15 minutes Cooking Time 25 minutes Serving Size 1 x Very Cute Snowman Main Ingredients: 150g Minced Meat 50g Veal or Beef Liver (chopped into small pieces) 15ml Bone Broth 70g Oven Roasted Bone Marrow (scooped out of the bones) 6g Honey - (Optional) 1 tsp Tallow or Lard for cooking 5g Cooked Parma Ham (Decoration - Optional) 3g Raspberry Jelly (Decoration - Optional) 1 x Blueberry (Decoration - Optional) Recipe Instructions Pre heat the oven to 180c. Chop the liver into small pieces. On a low heat, cook the liver in a little tallow or lard. Allow to cool. Divide the minced meat into 1 ball of 100g and another ball of 50g Divide the liver so that 35g fits inside the 100g ball and 15g fits inside the 50g ball of minced meat. Place the balls on a lined baking tray and cook in a preheated 180c oven for 15-18 minutes. Once the balls have finished cooking, remove the baking tray from the oven and allow to cool. Pour 3/4 of the bone broth mixture slowly over the largest meatball and 1/4 of the bone broth over the remaining meatball, before placing in the fridge. Meanwhile in a pan, melt the roasted bone marrow (which has been scooped out of the bones) with the honey (if using) on low. Stir often. Once the bone marrow has melted as much as possible, use a sieve to strain the contents of the pan into a glass jug. Assembly: The initial step will be to coat the meatballs in the bone marrow mixture. To do this you can either place the meatballs directly to the mixture and use a spoon to coat the balls, or you can use a cocktail stick or wooden skewer through the meat, in order to coat the balls. Once the balls have a good coating of the mixture, place them on a sheet of greaseproof paper and place back in the fridge for the coating to harden. Repeat this process, until both meatballs have a good layer of bone marrow on the outside. Once the meatball coating has hardened then you can place the smaller sized meatball (aka the head of the Snowman) on top of the larger meatball (aka the Snowman's body), and transfer to your preferred serving plate. You can now get creative with the Parma Ham to make a hat and hands for your snowman. You can also use a tiny amount of raspberry jelly for the buttons and blueberry for the eyes. If you have any remaining bone marrow, you can also pour around the base of the snowman to represent the snow. Tips Check out my Bone Broth (Pressure Cooker) recipe for instructions on how to make this. Adding a little honey to the bone marrow, while entirely optional, does make the coating slightly less bland. Any honey should be of organic quality, and is only recommended in small amounts for those who have recovered from any kind of health condition. You can further jazz your Snowman up using the different decoration options mentioned in the ingredients section. Ideally, purchase your meat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free. Any ingredients listed as Optional, may or may not be appropriate if you are following Strict PKD with No Allowances.

Regime Type: Without Eggs, PKD (With Allowances) Rosemary Infused Tallow Introduction & Inspiration This rosemary infused tallow is lovely and fragrant with a little sweetness and crunch provided by the pork crackling crumbs and honey. The tallow is delicious as a condiment for use in sweet and savoury dishes alike. It also spreads really well straight from the fridge. Let me know what you think. X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time 40 minutes Serving Size 1 x 110ml Pot of Rosemary Infused Tallow Main Ingredients: 105g Tallow 13g Fresh Rosemary 15g Eskimo Pork Crackling Crumbs (or homemade) 5g Honey (Optional) Recipe Instructions Set-up the sous-vide machine and set to a temperature of 75c. While the water is heating, put the tallow into a pan and melt it gently on low heat. Once melted, pour the tallow into an airtight metal container. Remove the rosemary leaves from the stems and then add the leaves of rosemary to the metal container and use a spatula to push the rosemary well into the tallow. Place the lid on the pot. Once the sous vide machine is up to temperature, place your metal pot container into the sous vide pot and weight it down so that it doesn't move around (I used a metal doorstop). Set the sous vide timer to 40 minutes. Once the time is up carefully lift the metal container out of the sous vide pot using a slotted spoon, and immediately place it into a bowl of iced cold water. Leave the pot and its contents to cool down a good 15 minutes in the iced water. Remove the lid from the metal container, give the contents a quick mix round with a spatula and then pour the contents through a sieve or cheesecloth bag, into an airtight glass container or jug. The oil should now be free of any bits of rosemary that are retained in the sieve or cheesecloth bag. Place the container in the fridge for 1 hour or so for the tallow to start to harden (but not fully set). Should you wish, you can now add in a little honey and pork crackling crumbs (optional). Give these a good mix around. Place the pot back in the fridge while the tallow hardens. Enjoy your wonderful, rosemary infused tallow! Tips If you only wish to infuse a very tiny hint of rosemary into your tallow, simply use slightly less fresh rosemary. Check out my Beef Crackling recipe for instructions on how to make tallow as well as my Lard and Pork Crackling- Air Fryer recipe to make your own pork crackling to turn into crumbs.

Add a small piece of tallow to the freezer. Cake Base Chop the oxtail leftovers up into small bits. Add the oxtail leftovers, together with the tallow and some salt to a pan on low heat. Cook until all the tallow has melted. Give everything a good stir so that all the oxtail is nicely coated in the tallow. Grease the inside of a circular silicone cake mould and place it on a tray. Pour in the oxtail and fat mixture. Use a spatula to ensure the top of the cake is nice and level with no bits of oxtail sticking up. Place the silicone mould in the fridge for the cake base to set fully (several hours or ideally overnight). Decoration: Once the cake base is set, remove the base from the mould and place it on a plate covered with greaseproof paper (to avoid any mess). Add enough of the creamy dessert sauce to the sides of the cake to cover the edges (just leave sufficient sauce to cover the top). Use a cake spatula or icing smoother scraper to smooth off the sauce evenly all the way around the edges of the cake. Sprinkle all the roast beef flour onto a large plate. Holding the cake in the centre with your hands not touching the cake edge. Roll the side of the cake in the roast beef flour to cover all the outside of the cake with the roast beef flour. Place the cake carefully down onto the greaseproof paper. Add the remaining creamy dessert sauce to the top of the cake and use a spatula or icing smoother scraper to evenly spread the cream over the top of the cake.

Remove the baking tray from the oven, place the mini lamb burgers on to a plate and allow the lamb to cool on the countertop. Instructions for the filling/topping Place the redcurrants and water in a pan, on low heat. Add in the honey and keep stirring until the honey has completely dissolved into the water. Now pour the mixture into a mini blender. Blend well for 20-30 seconds. Pour the contents of the blender through a sieve into a glass jug so that no seeds are present. Place the jug in the fridge for 10 minutes to allow the redcurrant juice to cool down. Add the redcurrant juice slowly to the glass bowl containing the cold bone marrow & whisk by hand or use a hand whisk (2-3 minutes), until you have a homogenous fluffy mixture. Mini Burger Assembly Once the lamb burgers are cool enough to handle you can chop all of them in half (or else leave some whole so they can have the filling on top instead). Now simply spoon a dollop of the filling (approx 10-12g) mixture on top of one of the cut halves, and then proceed to place the other half back on top. Continue in the same way for all the burgers that have been cut in half. If you did leave some mini burgers whole, then add a dollop of the filling on top, and add a little redcurrant in the middle for decoration if you wish. Enjoy these mini lamb burger bites straightaway, or else place them on a plate in the fridge until you are ready to serve them. Tips When you cut the mini lamb burgers in half, be sure to have a very sharp knife, especially if the burgers are still slightly warm so that they don't break apart.

Well, they are sweet because they taste richer and sweeter compared to typical meat, and they are bread because the old English word for flesh is bræd. Fun fact: Sweetbreads were once very commonplace, especially in the 1700s and 1800s. Fried, breaded sweetbreads were commonly used as a garnish for meat dishes. These days, they're more expensive and rare than they were back then, so they're treated as a delicacy and usually served on their own. Video Not Available Yet....

Regime Type: Without Eggs, Strict PKD (No Allowances) Oxtail - Slow Cooker Introduction & Inspiration If you have never tried oxtail before, you're in for a lovely treat! Slow cooker oxtail is just magical for creating the most succulent meat, with flavoursome juices. The meat literally just falls off the bone. I hope you will give this recipe a try. X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time 14 hours Makes: 985g Beef Oxtail (Cooked) 140ml Oxtail Fat 573ml Oxtail Juices 500g Oxtail Bones (useful for making gelatinous bone broth) Main Ingredients: 250ml - 500ml Bone Broth 2.2kg Beef Oxtails 2 tbsp Tallow or Lard (to sear the oxtails in before cooking) Recipe Instructions In the slow cooker, add the tallow and set the slow cooker to 'Sear' mode. Sear the oxtails on all sides until slightly browned. Add 1 - 2 cups of bone broth over the top of the beef oxtail. Place the lid on the slow cooker and set to 'Vent' on the lid. Choose the Slow Cooker LOW setting and set the Time to 14 hours (or 12 hours + 2, if there is a maximum time limit on your device). After 14 hours has elapsed, open the lid and check whether the meat is falling easily off the bone. It should be! Remove the oxtails from the slow cooker and place them in a glass dish, and allow them to cool slightly. At this point, remove the bones from the oxtail and then proceed to pull the oxtail meat apart with two forks while nice and tender (like when making pulled pork). Once the oxtail is well shredded, you can use it immediately in a recipe should you wish. Otherwise, leave the oxtail to cool down completely before placing a lid on the dish and storing it in the fridge. Pour the oxtail cooking juices from the slow cooker into a glass jar. Leave this to cool before placing a lid on it and storing this in the fridge too. You will see a fat layer form on top of the jar (Oxtail Fat), and you will have some lovely rich juices underneath (Oxtail Juices). Enjoy!

X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 30 minutes Serving Size 2 x Pork Sheets Main Ingredients: 100g Pork Tenderloin Leftovers 85g Pork Jelly Cubes 60g Oven Roasted Bone Marrow 75ml Bone Broth Salt To Taste Recipe Instructions Preheat the oven to 175c (Convection - middle shelf) Place all the ingredients into a pan on low-medium heat, and allow the bone marrow and pork jelly cubes to melt. Stir often. Once done, allow the mixture to cool slightly. Pour the mixture into a high speed blender and blend until the mixture is smooth. Grease a silicone baking mat with tallow or lard. Pour approx. 140 ml of the mixture on to the silicone mat on a baking tray and spread out a thin layer of the mixture using a spatula. Place the baking tray in the oven and cook for 14 - 15 minutes (check often towards the end of the cooking time - the mixture should not be wet or stick to your finger when touched) Once cooked, remove the baking tray from the oven and place on the kitchen countertop. Allow to cool for several minutes. While still warm, transfer the sheet on to some greaseproof paper to avoid it going cold and potentially sticking to the silicone mat (this shouldn't happen if you remembered to grease the mat first). Follow the above steps to make the second sheet. Your Pork Sheets are now ready to use. If you are not going to be using the sheets straightaway, then store them in some greaseproof paper (or fold them into an airtight container) and keep refrigerated. Tips Ideally, purchase your meat and fat from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free and try and use white sea salt or rock salt that contains no anticaking agents or other additives.
