How To Make creton maison

  • Step 1
    In a saucepan, add pork, onion, garlic, green onions, celery stalk, mixed spices and black pepper; cover mixture with water. Cook uncovered over medium heat for 1 to 1 ¼ hours; stir occasionally.
  • Step 2
    Halfway through cooking, add oatmeal and stir well. About ½ hour before the end of cooking, start whisking the mixture using either a whisk or potato masher. Add a little cream at a time until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Using an immersion blender, smooth creton to desire consistency
  • Step 3
    Before freezing, put a paper towel on top. When thaw out, put bowl upside down so the paper towel can absorb the extra liquid from mixture.
