    Regime Type: Strict PKD (No Allowances), Without Eggs Liver Galore Cake Introduction & Inspiration Eating liver shouldn't be an ordeal; it should be a delightful treat. One of the best ways I like to prepare it is in a mousse-like form, where the taste is subtle and the texture varied, allowing you to truly appreciate this remarkable, micronutrient-rich food. It's a wonderful cake to make for special occasions, such as birthdays or parties. It also has a great PKD ratio. So go on, give it a try. You may just come to love liver! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes (To Note: The cake will need to set in the fridge for 3+ hours) Cooking Time Less than 30 minutes Serving Size 1 x Liver Galore Cake (11cm Diameter) Main Ingredients: Base: 20g Beef Liver* 50g Beef Crackling Salt To Taste Topping: 180g Beef liver* Salt To Taste Decoration: 20g Dehydrated Liver Sheet (or Raspberry Fruit Sheet - Optional) Recipe Instructions Place all the beef liver into a high speed blender with some salt. Liquidise the beef liver well. Base: To make the base, warm the beef crackling (stove or microwave) and place it in a mini blender. Blend the crackling into a paste. Add the paste, together with 20ml of the liquidised beef liver into a small pan. Cook on low heat for 3 or so minutes, stirring often. Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat. Line and grease a 11cm springform circular tin. Add the base ingredients into the tin using a spatula. Use the back of a spoon to press the base ingredients down into the tin so that the top is nice and level. Topping: While the base is cooling, add the remaining liquidised beef liver to the pan and cook on low heat for 3 minutes. Stir the mixture continuously during the cooking process so that the ingredients do not stick to the pan. The mixture will become reasonably thick. Once cooked to your liking, add the mixture back to the blender and blend until smooth. Use a spatula to add the mixture to the tin. Use a spoon to smooth the liver over the base and ensure the top is nice and level. Allow the cake to cool, before covering and adding the tin to the fridge for 3 hours or until set. Remove the cake from the fridge and uncover. Carefully remove the cake from the springform tin and use a spatula to transfer the cake onto a serving plate. Decoration (0ptional): Cut some strips of dehydrated liver (or raspberry fruit sheet) using a pizza cutter or scissors that create a nice zigzag edging. The strip should be wide enough to cover the outside of the cake. Place the strip around the cake. Add a few extra thin zigzag strips over the top of the cake for decoration should you wish. If you are not eating the cake immediately, then cover and place back in the fridge. Otherwise, slice up the liver cake and enjoy your liver galore experience! Tips *This recipe works really well with veal liver too, so be sure to try that option as well. For those that can eat it, Raspberry Fruit Sheet makes a nice cake decoration and also pairs very well with liver. Ideally, purchase your fat and offal 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. Any ingredients listed as Optional, may or may not be appropriate if you are following Strict PKD with No Allowances. If you are unsure, refer to the Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet Rules document or consult with ICMNI in Hungary ( Home - Nutriintervention ).

    Regime Type: PKD (With Allowances) Souffle Omelette Introduction & Inspiration It would be remiss of me, living here in France, to not be inspired by some of the culinary works of Mère Poulard, who owned an inn on Mont-Saint-Michel, in the Normandy region of France over 100+ years ago. Mère Poulard created a great soufflé omelette which is both crispy and yet fluffy at the same time! In this recipe you will learn how to make the original version using whole eggs (see Tips section below) as well as an adapted version for those that don't do well with egg whites. Both, have an incredibly light and airy texture with a wonderful mixture of fluffy, foamy and crispy goodness! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less Than 30 Minutes Serving Size 1 x Soufflé Omelette Main Ingredients: 30g Egg Yolk (2 egg yolks) 30ml Bone Broth 15g Tallow (for frying) 1/4 Tsp Salt Optional Garnish Ideas 1 x Slice of Smoked Ham Tallow (frozen) - Grated Cooked Lamb Kidney Recipe Instructions Place the egg yolks and salt into a metal bowl. Use an electric hand whisk (or regular whisk) and beat the egg mixture vigorously to incorporate as much air as you can. If you're beating this by hand it could take from 6 to 10 minutes. For an electric hand whisk it will take less time, approx. 3 - 4 minutes. Once you have beaten the eggs well, add in the bone broth to the egg mixture and continue to use the electric hand whisk, to whisk the mixture until it becomes nice and frothy. Once the mixture is ready for cooking, work quickly as the bubbles will soon disappear. Add the tallow to the frying pan on a med-high heat. The tallow should be melted and nice and hot. Pour the mixture from the bowl into the hot pan with a spatula. Leave the mixture to get some colouring underneath the omelette. You can use your spatula to lift up the edges of the omelette to check on the colour from time to time. Continue to cook the omelette until the base has a nice golden colour. The top will still look a little foamy, and not fully cooked. This is normal. Once cooked to your liking, use a spatula to gently transfer the soufflé omelette from the pan onto a serving plate. At this stage you can add a little Parma ham and grated tallow to one half of the omelette (optional), before using your spatula to carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the top of the filling mixture (if using). Serve immediately. Bon appétit! Tips For those of you who tolerate egg whites well, simply follow the recipe steps above using 2 whole eggs and salt (the bone broth is not needed in this case). Be sure to use free range, organic eggs. Whether you can eat eggs may depend on your condition, medical history, the time you have been doing PKD and your health goals. If you're unsure, please consult with ICMNI in Hungary ( Home - Nutriintervention ). In the time before Paul Bocuse there was an official distinction (la Mère) given to talented lady cooks; “The Mothers of France”. The originally recipe cooked the omelette in a copper pan on the fireplace (to get an idea of the original recipe, you can watch this video on YouTube Recette : L'omelette de la Mère Poulard | Archive INA . In the absence of a fireplace, the next best thing is making it on the stove in a pan. The secret of the recipe is being able to incorporate the maximum amount of air into the eggs to arrive at an appareil that is extremely frothy. If you are going to beat the egg mixture by hand, like in the original recipe, it can take anywhere from 6 to 10 minutes. If you use an electric whisk, to get the frothy texture you still need to mimic as though you are whisking by hand to try and incorporate as much air as you can, so move the electric whisk around in the bowl. The egg has to be really well beaten, almost like a meringue. You have to work quickly once the mixture is ready, as the bubbles soon disappear. The cooking time should not normally exceed 3-5 minutes. The top is served a little bit foamy and uncooked. So when you slide it on a plate to serve it up you will have the little edges with the foam (especially if you are using whole eggs). It will deflate like a soufflé, but this is normal. The omelette can be served with a garnish (smoked ham, smoked salmon, cooked lamb kidney or bacon for example. There are so many options!). Just remember to add any additional fat or meat as required for the perfect PKD ratio. *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 and be sure to use free range, organic eggs. Check out my Bone Broth - Pressure Cooker recipe for instructions on how to make this. If you do not have any tallow handy, then substitute with lard or another animal fat. Video

    Regime Type: PKD (With Allowances), Without Eggs Cold Start Roast Chicken Introduction & Inspiration The French Cooking Academy has a great technique for roasting a chicken in the oven which I wanted to share in case folks are not familiar with it. This technique is simple and yields a succulent, juicy result. It's a very simple method which is still used here in some French homes whereby the chicken is roasted, starting from a cold oven. Not only does the chicken become nicely coloured, and yields a succulent, juicy result but it also generates the most delicious caramelised roast chicken cooking juices with all the natural fat from the chicken. For such a minimal effort, the results are really impressive. So why not go ahead and give this one a try! X Nic Recipe Overview Preparation Time Less than 30 minutes Cooking Time Less than 1.5 hours Serving Size 1 x Cold Start Roast Chicken 190ml Chicken Cooking Juices/Broth Main Ingredients: 1.7kg Whole Chicken 40g Tallow or Lard (Melted) 40g Tallow* Salt To Taste Recipe Instructions Pat the chicken dry, if not already done so. Add 1/2 of the melted tallow to a metal roasting tray/dish that you will be using to roast the chicken in. Spread the liquid over the base using a pastry brush. Place the chicken in the roasting tray/dish. Pour the remaining melted tallow over the top of the chicken and use a pastry brush to brush the liquid into the legs and wings. Cut the tallow into 4 smaller pieces. Place a piece of tallow between each of the legs and wings of the chicken. Sprinkle salt over the chicken. Add the roasting dish with the chicken to a cold oven. For a 1.5kg chicken, set the oven to 200c with the Forced Air function on. Cook for 70 minutes. For a chicken weighing slightly more than 1.5kg, set the oven temperature to 190c with the Forced Air function** on. Cook for 80-90 minutes without opening the door (this is very important to avoid the steam escaping). Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a cooling rack and cover with greaseproof paper and a sheet of foil. Let it rest for at least 20+ minutes before carving. Pour the cooking juices into a jug (you can sieve it first should you wish). Once the chicken has cooled for at least 20 minutes, transfer it onto a wooden chopping board and carve the chicken. To serve, add the chicken slices to serving plates (or a serving platter), and pour the delicious roast chicken cooking juices over the meat. Add a little extra fat for a good Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet (PKD) ratio. Enjoy! Tips Should your chicken be slightly larger in size than 1.5kg, reduce the cooking temperature to 190c and extend the cooking time by 10 to 20 minutes. *Tallow can be substituted with lard. **Forced Air function allows you to cook a variety of food requiring the same cooking temperature on two shelves at the same time (e.g.: fish, vegetables, cakes). This function can be used to cook different foods without odours being transferred from one food to another. Use the 2nd shelf to cook on one shelf only. To cook on two shelves, use the 1st and 4th levels after preheating the oven.
