Cancoillotte metton is not easy to find if you're not in Franche-Comté in France. If you can't find it, substitute it with classic cancoillotte.
Keeping: 1 or 2 days in the fridge, protected by cling film, can be frozen.

Clarified butter
Clarified butter
This is a way of melting butter to eliminate all the impurities. The clarified butter can then be heated without spoiling, and is more digestible. It is ideal for cooking at high temperatures where small black specks would spoil the appearance, or for emulsified sauces like béarnaise or mousseline.
