Step by Step guide
Step 1
Cut the bird into portion-sized pieces. Be sure to remove the bones from the back, as they can make the consommé bitter.
Step 2
Peel the roots and onions and cut them into large pieces.
Step 3
Heat the butter in a saucepan, quickly sauté the pieces of bird without browning them, and transfer to a deep pot.
Step 4
Sauté the roots and onions in a skillet until golden brown.
Step 5
Cut the leek lengthwise, wash it, and cut it into several pieces.
Step 6
Transfer the sautéed vegetables and leek to the pot with the bird, add water so that it completely covers the bird. Bring to a boil, skim off the foam. Cover loosely with a lid and simmer for about 1 hour.
Step 7
After cooking, remove all the vegetables from the broth. Add the celery and parsley greens, as well as all the spices. Continue to simmer the broth until it reduces by about a quarter.
Step 8
Cool 1 ladle of broth. Whisk or beat 2 eggs and mix them with the cooled broth. Add this mixture to the main broth and cook for another 15–20 minutes on low heat. The broth is ready.
