Finely dice the chestnuts, celeriac and blood sausage. Vacuum the celeriac and cook sous vide in the fusionchef sous vide water bath for approx. 5 minutes at 85 °C. Fry the chestnut dice with a bit of butter until crisp. Add the blood sausage and stir. Put all ingredients into a bowl and mix with the celeriac puree. Fill into a piping bag and keep warm until served.

Gravy of blood sausage:
Finely dice the blood sausage and let it melt in a pan at medium heat. Deglaze with the venison jus and mix with a stick blender. Let it sit for 15 minutes.

Venison (sous vide):
Heat the slightly crushed allspice berries in extra virgin rape seed oil. Vacuum the corns together with the venison. Cook sous vide in the fusionchef sous vide water bath at 61 °C for 35 minutes. Remove from the vacuum bag and season with salt. Brown from all sides in a pan and cut into slices.
