- A very fragrant, delicious, budget-friendly pork hock roulade cooked in onion skins! A great cold meat appetizer! 1. Soak the pork hock in cold water for 2 hours. Scrape it clean with a knife and rinse well. 2. Rinse the onion skins under running water, cover with cold water (1.5–2 liters / about 6–8 cups), bring to a boil, and simmer for 5–10 minutes. 3. Carefully cut the hock along the bone, trimming the meat away. Cut out the bone and lay the meat, skin-side down, on a cutting surface. Make a few cuts in the meat to trim the tendons and even out the surface, aiming for as flat a slab as possible. Salt the meat and squeeze 3–4 garlic cloves over it. Rub the salt and garlic into the meat. 4. Carefully roll the hock into a tight roulade and tie it firmly with thread or kitchen twine. Transfer it to the boiling onion-skin broth — the water should cover it. Add salt, peppercorns, and allspice, and cook over low heat for 2.5–3 hours. 5. Remove the strings from the cooked roulade and rub it with the coating (press the remaining garlic through a garlic press, add the khmeli-suneli, and mix). Wrap it very tightly in parchment paper and chill in the fridge for 10–12 hours. 6. Cold, this roulade slices beautifully into thin pieces that you can serve as part of a cold-cut platter or on sandwiches.
