I came into possession of this recipe from a Dutch Butcher instructor at the college where I worked in 2001.
I have never had occasion upon which to make it.
It was buried in some oddball recipe collection that I happen to go through yesterday on a whim of nostalgia. I think I will make it very soon and try it in a nice Stamppot

Murray, I have a question on this. The instructions say to bloom at 75C for an hour, then cook at 75C for 20 minutes. I think the blooming temperature might be a typo. Wouldn't blooming be done at closer to room temperature? Maybe 25C?

This recipe begs clarification-I wish I had read it over when I received it and not 10 years after the fact.

Just use your best judgement.

I see no sense in blooming before the cook phase and certainly no sense in blooming at 75C.

No finished IT is requested, just bizarre-but it is what it is.

The ingredient ratios seem sound-other than no specific meat variety indicated-ShockedShockedso hopefully all is not lost.
