jus

Both opera and play distill class warfare down to the aristocratic household, where two just-married servants foil the lecherous count’s scheme to exercise jus primae noctis — right of the first night — on the wife.

I am forever and always obsessed with chicken skin jus, so seeing a caramelized one on your menu made me very excited.

GH: Our chicken skin jus starts with a whole load of chicken skins in a hotel pan placed in our pizza oven for a really long time.

Once the wine has cooked out, we add more aromatics and transfer the pan to a 350-degree oven to reduce to the thick and sticky jus that glazed the chicken on the plate.

When the jus is cooled, we harvest the rendered chicken fat and infuse green herbs to make a green fat we then drizzle over the chicken before it goes out to the guest.
