  Servings: 8

Ingredients

  •     Consomme avec Petites Profiteroles
  • 4 lrg egg whites plus shells, crushed
  • 1 lb plum tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 lb celery (5 to 6 large ribs), cut into 1 inch pcs
  • 1/2 lb lean grnd sirloin
  • 1 Tbsp. kosher salt
  • 20 x black peppercorns, cracked
  • 6 c. veal stock
  •     Accompaniment: tiny choux puffs

Directions

  1. Garnish: celery leaves and diced seeded peeled tomatoes (See how to peel and seed a tomato.)
  2. Whisk egg whites in a large bowl till foamy and add in eggshells. Separately pulse tomatoes and celery in a food processor till coarsely minced, then add in to egg whites. Whisk in beef, salt, and peppercorns.
  3. Heat veal stock, if jellied, in a 4-qt heavy saucepan just till it becomes liquid, then whisk in beef mix. Heat over moderately high heat, stirring and scraping bottom constantly with a wooden spoon to prevent egg white from sticking, till stock comes to a simmer (this will take about 20 min).
  4. Reduce heat and gently simmer broth, without stirring, till all impurities rise to surface and form a crust, and broth underneath is clear, about 30 min.
  5. Ladle broth with crust into a large sieve lined with a double thickness of dampened paper towels set over a large bowl and let all liquid drain through.
  6. (If liquid doesn't drain completely, tap edge of sieve repeatedly with a metal spoon to help drain.) Broth should be completely clear; if it's not, repeat procedure with clean dampened paper towels. Throw away solids.
  7. Before serving, bring consomme to a boil and season with salt. Ladle into bowls and top with profiteroles and garnishes.
  8. Makes 8 servings (6 c.)
  9. Cooks' note:o Consomme can be made ahead: Cold, uncovered, then chill, covered, 1 day or possibly freeze 1 month.
