Instead of using casings, the forcemeat can be wrapped in caul fat to make crépinettes, shown raw above left with a slice of truffle placed under the caul fat. To cook, fry briefly in a hot pan to brown the fat and finish in a hot oven. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Note: 3 grams of crushed garlic can be added to the forcemeat long with the spices to make le petit cru à l'ail. .
Cut the meat and fat into pieces small enough to pass through grinder. Partially freeze.
