Those are some nice bones in the oxtail. I have never had the chance to use oxtail; do they have much yummy marrow? As a side note, the brown bits are called "fond" in French! Thanks for the videos.

@aflory2000 They don't really have too much marrow. Thank you :)

Hi Lila, I am making this right now and the pork is in the crock pot. I noticed after two hours of the pork being in the pot there seems to be scum in the liquid and I can't really get any of it out - is it okay?

Thank you!

@schweetheartmonkee Hi I see you posted this last night - Are you using pork or did you mean the oxtail? If you're using the oxtail there may be some fat and a bit of scum (you can see a bit in 4:16.) If there is a lot, you can use an absorbent papertowel and just lightly lay it on top and lift it up quickly to get the excess off; but usually there is not so much that it requires this step :)

Thanks so much for the reply, actually I was making red cooked pork, I don't know how the message ended up being for the oxtail video... I am not quite sure what it was but there was a lot of stuff floating in the cooking liquid two hours into cooking the red cooked pork. At the end I poured the whole thing through a sieve and that cleared up the sauce/liquid a bit. Do you know what caused that? And is there any way I can prevent that? thanks!!

@schweetheartmonkee There is usually little shreds of meat from the pork that float up - simply b/c it starts to fall apart a bit. I usually just leave them in and thicken the sauce. Also, the garlic and fennel seeds would be in there as well, but other than that I can't think of anything else that would floating on the top :)

@Darkheroeslord An extreme amount of anything you consume is bad for you. If you eat a pound of salt in one sitting for instance you die. Please reread your posts to me and see how aggressive you were to my original posting stating that MSG is not the terrible monster that was originally purported by the media, and then tell me my "attitude" is out of line.
