Preparation
The day before
1

Cut the apple into 2 then into about ten 5 mm slices.

2

In a buttered frying pan, cook the slices of apple on both sides until they colour.

3

Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon, then flambé with the Marc de Gewurztraminer. Leave to cool and set aside in the refrigerator.

4

Finally, prepare your Foie Gras: devein and season the raw Duck Foie Gras with the spiced salt and set aside in the refrigerator.

The next day
1

Roll the Foie Gras into a cylinder or sausage shape about 5-6 cm in diameter.

2

Cut this "sausage" lengthways and place 70 g of your apple preparation on one of the cut surfaces. Place the apple preparation in the middle, leaving 1 cm on either side.

3

Close the sausage up again with the other half of the Foie Gras to reform the cylinder. Roll your Foie Gras in a cloth and tie up with string at both ends.

4

In a saucepan, heat the white stock base to 70°C and plunge in the Foie Gras wrapped in the cloth. Cook for 50 minutes (at 70°C). Leave to cool.

5

When your Foie Gras has hardened, delicately remove the cloth and roll your preparation in cling film ensuring no air is trapped inside. Consume within 3 days.

Reinette apples can be replaced by Boskoops, which remain firmer when cooked
