The game stock is built on the cheaper parts of the animal — the neck, breast, and shoulder of roe deer, hare, and other game. Erken gives a separate clarifying method in which browned game meat and bones are pounded in a mortar with egg white, so the stock is both clarified and gets a stronger flavor.
Brown the meat
Brown the game meat in fat and half-cook it.
Bring to a boil
Pour on the water. When it boils and is well skimmed, add the cleaned vegetables and the spices.
Cook the stock
Let the stock cook slowly for about 3 hours.
Clarifying
Clarify the stock in the usual way, or better: brown bones and meat of game in the oven, pound it in a mortar, and mix in 1 egg white per 4 liters of stock.
Whisk in and simmer
Stir the mixture into the cold game stock while whisking constantly, until the stock comes to a boil. Then let it gently simmer over quite low heat for 1–2 hours.
Strain off
Remove all the fat and strain the stock through a fine sieve.
Measures modernized (grams, liters). "Fat" is kept as cooking fat; lard or butter can be used. The clarifying is described in a separate step with modern wording.
