Creole Daube Glace

This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Marlin Estate in Caddo Mills, Texas in 1995.

Ingredients

Method

1
Pour the beef broth into a large heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Skim any impurities from the surface to ensure a clear, clean stock.
10 minutes
2
Add the minced garlic and green onions to the simmering broth, stirring to combine. Allow the aromatics to infuse into the broth for a rich, layered flavor.
15 minutes
3
Season the broth with Tabasco sauce and Worcestershire sauce, adjusting quantities to taste for the characteristic Creole kick. Stir well and allow the broth to continue simmering so the flavors meld together.
10 minutes
4
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the seasoned broth to cool slightly. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve lined with cheesecloth to achieve a clear, refined liquid.
10 minutes
5
Carefully ladle the strained broth into individual molds, ramekins, or a large shallow dish, filling each to the desired depth. Distribute any reserved solids or garnishes evenly among the molds if desired.
5 minutes
6
Allow the filled molds to cool to room temperature before transferring them to the refrigerator. Chill until the broth is fully set and firmly jellied.

Once fully set, unmold the Daube Glacé onto a chilled serving platter by briefly dipping the bottom of each mold in warm water and inverting it. Serve cold, sliced or whole, as an elegant appetizer or first course.
