These special Beef Wellingtons are made with gluten free ingredients. We take product claims seriously and we know that for many of our customers, trying to make an informed decision based on dietary requirements is not always as straight forward as it should be. Below we will provide you with all the information you should need to decide if this product is right for you, including our full ingredients listing. These beef wellingtons are made with non-gluten containing ingredients. We also make these at a seperate time to our other products, removing all possible gluten contaminates and fully sanitising the area before we start. We do however use gluten products in our kitchen and although we take all the necessary steps to avoid cross contamination with great care, we want to make our customers aware of this. Simply put - All the ingredients are gluten free but we do have gluten in our kitchen which we carefully segrate when we make these. Like all of our wellingtons these are chef-made using only the finest grass fed British fillet, wrapped in our signature mushroom duxelle, flavoured with a 6 year old madeira and freshly picked thyme from our kitchen garden. Finished with double lattice puff pastry - Gluten free of-course!
This product is made fresh to order. Keep refrigerated or freeze for up to 3 months. Ensure product is fully defrosted before cooking if you have frozen at home.
Non Gluten Ingredients - Beef Wellington (4-6 size)
- Remove the beef wellington from the fridge an hour before cooking, allowing it to reach room temperature.
- Pre-heat the oven to 240°C/220°C Fan/Gas Mark 9, and place a flat baking tray on the middle shelf.
- Unwrap the beef wellington and trim the grease proof paper to just wider than the pastry.
- Place onto the pre-heated tray, and bake for 20 minutes.
- Reduce the temperature to 200°C/180°C Fan/Gas Mark 6 and rotate the baking tray. Continue cooking for 12-15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and discard the grease proof paper. Place on a cooling rack and rest for 15 minutes.
- Slice and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt to finish.
At Mucca we believe the best way to serve our beef wellingtons is to medium, where the beef is perfectly pink in the middle. Our instructions aim to achieve this.
If you have a meat thermometer, beef cooked to medium will have a core temperature of 36-40°C straight out of the oven, and 45-50°C once rested.
As with all meat products, cooking instructions are given as a guide and there can be variation between the size and the shape of each handmade wellington. If you would prefer your meat well done, we would advise you to double the cooking time of the second stage of cooking at the lower temperature. If the pastry is browning too much, place a sheet of foil over the top.
