1. Brine veal loin in a 10% brine for 15 minutes then wash in cold water and dry thoroughly, vacuum pack neatly under full pressure and cook in a water bath at 62degrees C until a core temperature of 58degrees C is achieved. Remove from bag, dry and sear quickly in a hot pan, keep warm until needed.
2. For the salt bake, mix flour with salt and bind with water to produce a dough. Roll to 5mm thickness and encase cleaned turnips within. Bake at 160 degrees C for approximately 1 hour. Allow to rest for 20 minutes before opening pastry, peeling turnips and passing pulp through a coarse sieve.
Reserve warm until needed.
3. For the turnip discs peel, slice thinly 1 turnip, cut 2cm discs with a cutter. Reserve

5. For the puree, peel and dice 1 turnip, mix with the trimmings from the discs. Add cream, season and cook rapidly in covered pan until soft. Strain excess liquid off and blend pulp in a liquidiser until smooth, adding any liquid if required. Pass through a sieve and reserve in squeezy bottle.
6. For the sauce, roast wings until golden brown, cover with water, bring to boil then turn down to a simmer. Skim away scum and continue to simmer for 12 hours, skimming fat away when necessary. Meanwhile roast veal bones and trim separately until golden brown. Add sliced vegetables and aromats and carry on roasting until all are well covered. Strain away the fat and place bones, trim and veg in a saucepan. Deglaze roasting tray with wines and reduce by 2/3 add to bones. Pass chicken stock through a sieve into bones and trim, bring to boil then simmer for a further 4 hours, skimming regularly.
