    Great video. I'm preparing for my first cassoulet, bought my 500gm of pork belly complete with rind, promptly removed and discarded the rind, 2 days before viewing this video. Alas! The good news is that I just happen to have a split pig trotter in my freezer and have had NO idea what to do with it! Thanks for the help!

    • @Stringythingy

    • @m.theresa1385
      @m.theresa1385 Před 4 měsíci

      I feel for you. I need a bigger freezer for all the baggies, bits and pieces I have saved in there - kinda hard to do in a tiny apartment galley kitchen. Cassoulet is on my Shrove Tuesday menu before I give up meat for Lent. It seems like an entirely appropriate meaty dish, even more so than jambalaya before 40 days of doing without. I’ll end Lent with a fishy paella on Good Friday. These two dishes seem like the perfect bookends.

    I'm afraid the fortifications of Carcassonne have not been 'miraculously preserved' from the 13th century - it was almost entirely built in the Victorian era.
    The cassoulet I'm sure is perfectly nice, but as the stated aim here is 'authentic and traditional' cassoulet, it doesn't quite hit the mark.
    There are essentially three variants which may be considered authentic: the cassoulets of Castelnaudary (where the dish probably originated), Carcassonne and Toulouse.
    The Castelnaudary recipe uses pork and confit of goose, that of Carcassonne uses mutton and that of Toulouse uses mutton, pork, sausage and confit of goose. These recipes are the only ones which have any rightful claim to authenticity. Which of these is superior is of course a matter of opinion, but I would argue that the mutton and the goose adds a certain something to a cassoulet which I wouldn't be without. Game is occasionally used too and can be good.
    More importantly though - a true cassoulet *never* contains tomatoes.

    • @Petespans
      @Petespans  Před 2 měsíci

      Thanks for the feedback!
      A photo from 1850 shows the old walls, prior to renovation pretty much in tact - but I who am I to say? Don't even know where I read that information ; )
      I think my Cassoulet belongs somewhere along the canal between Carcassonne and Toulouse!
      Slightly generic, I admit: local variations of the "Holy Trinity" will be discussed in an upcoming video.
      I remember I based my ingredients upon amusing video of Castelnaudary vs Carcassonne battle of Cassoulets: czcams.com/video/INpig8mSS4U/video.html
      as well as a Cassoulet I had at la maison du Cassoulet in the heart of la Cité, and the Académie du Cassoulet at the Chateau de St Martin at Carcassonne. No mutton in any of these, but can be used, I know.
      As far as tomato is concerned, I was swayed by the world champion Cassoulet maker: czcams.com/video/UB11zdrAxjE/video.html
      who uses a touch of tomato paste.
