This beef shank (or knuckle) is distinguished by its French breed origin, with the option to order a specific breed from among the most prestigious: Aubrac, Blonde d'Aquitaine, Charolaise, Limousine, Normande, or Salers.
These cuts of meat are expertly prepared by the Le Delas butchery teams, and vacuum-packed to ensure optimal maturation before use.
Professional culinary uses:
The sole is an ideal cut of beef for slow cooking. The choice of breed allows chefs to adapt the taste and texture to their recipe:
► Braised and stewed: These are prime cuts for beef bourguignon, daubes and other stewed dishes. The lean, collagen-rich gîte à la noix becomes melt-in-the-mouth after slow cooking.
► Pot-au-feu: Adds a delicious flavour and good texture to traditional pot-au-feu.
► Differences between breeds: Each breed has its own characteristics: Charolais and Limousine are known for their tenderness and fine grain. Aubrac and Salers are more distinctive, ideal for dishes with character. Normande is known for its marbling and milky flavours, perfect for pot-au-feu.
Storage and preparation tips:
► Storage: Fresh butcher's product, vacuum-packed for extended shelf life. Store in a refrigerator (0°C to 4°C).
► Preparation: Remove from the vacuum-sealed bag at least one hour before cooking. Ideal for slow cooking.
