Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Take the products from the list. Wash the legs and knuckle well and scrape with a knife - I have from the supermarket, so there is practically no fuss. Ask your husband to cut the tubular bones. Fill the meat products with water and bring to a boil.
Step 2:
Add an onion, a piece of carrot, celery, stalks of greens. Cook under the lid at a slow boil for 3 hours. Then add salt to taste, add bay leaf and pepper, cook for about an hour.
Step 3:
Then turn off the stove, let the jelly stand for an hour. Remove the meat from the broth, discard the roots.
Step 4:
Carefully ice the meat from the bones with your hands, wearing gloves.
Step 5:
Part of the pulp can simply be divided into fibers and put in a jelly.
Step 6:
Scroll the rest of the meat with the skin with a combine or meat grinder. Just this is what will give our jelly to be strong.
Step 7:
Arrange the meat in bowls or molds for jelly.
Step 8:
Add grated garlic to taste.
Step 9:
Pour in the broth, gently stir until the meat part is evenly distributed in the broth. Put it in the cold until it cools down completely.
Step 10:
If suddenly your jelly is frozen (on the balcony, for example), when it melts, it will become liquid - it needs to be brought to a boil again and cooled, it will return its consistency.
Pork leg and knuckle jelly is a wonderful Russian snack, an indispensable attribute of the New Year holidays. After all, the jelly can be cooked in advance - it is perfectly stored for several days. The jelly is served on the snack table along with meat cuts, garnished with berries, herbs, lemon.
