Bone Marrow Baskets
Introduction & Inspiration
Bone Marrow Baskets are a fun and novel way to serve your meal, and become lovely and creamy when filled with warm meat dishes. They are nice to make when you are aiming for a slightly fancier meal for your friends or family. They are still quick and easy to whip up, yet offer an extra touch of class. They can also be made ahead of time.
Try making them, and see for yourself how your whole meal is transformed.

Recipe Overview
Preparation Time
Less than 30 minutes
Cooking Time
Less than 30 minutes
Serving Size
2 x Bone Marrow Baskets (Diameter 7cm x 4cm Deep)
Main Ingredients:
70g Whipped Bone Marrow
Recipe Instructions
Cover two small ramekin tins with clingfilm, and push the clingfilm inside the ramekin tins.
Turn the ramekin upside down and using a spatula, spread half of the whipped bone marrow evenly to cover all of the base and sides of the ramekin, so that when the bone marrow sets it will form a bowl shape.
Proceed to coat the second ramekin in the same way.
Place the ramekins on a small tray and put them in the freezer until the bone marrow is set hard. Remove the tray from the freezer.
With one hand carefully hold the bone marrow basket, and with the other, slowly slide the ramekin tin from the basket. Now carefully remove all the clingfilm from the basket. Repeat, for the second basket.
Place the Bone Marrow Baskets in an airtight container in the freezer until you're ready to use them.
Tips
For PKD ratio purposes, simply weigh the bone marrow baskets and depending on your other ingredients, adjust your ratios accordingly. So for example if using 200g uncooked lean minced meat and the bone marrow basket is only 50g, I would add 20g of extra fat in the form of a few strips of pork back fat etc.
Ideally, purchase your bones from pasture raised animals that are Nitrate, Nitrite & Additive Free.
