Meat Brine Preparation
Monday, January 23rd, 2012
Not too long ago from the vast expanses of sea and river of our vast country, were caught a lot of different fish and shellfish. This stuff was so much that we did not consider for a delicacy, something that nowadays is considered exquisite delicacy. Let's try to learn about the clam, in particular on rapane what it really?. The demand for this mollusk appeared only recently, about 12 – 15 years ago, and currently very much greater than supply. Many housewives and cooks are faced with the fact that somewhere, from someone knew about the original taste and nutritional qualities of this valuable shellfish, but to make her eat was not easy. In the trade (markets, shops, supermarkets) rapanu bring in a semi-form – a primary treatment, almost all do not know this and are prepared from a variety of products food.
But the Rapana meat is very tough, tasteless, and why most chefs say that he rubber, etc. To get rapanu such as we have to cook it nuzhena – secondary treatment. Know that it should cook a particular method, I consistently found that cooked this way brine, high quality and very tasty. And because of her wonderful recipes are obtained. Boil 1kg of brine in 0.8 liters of water with 0.4 – 0.5 liters of 10% vinegar, add a pinch of salt until soft boil down from 15 minutes to 2 hours (depending on the place of cultivation). Do not be embarrassed that a brine prepared immediately and the other is necessary to prepare a long time.
This happens on where this mollusk was fished. If very close to the shore – it cooks faster when you get it the same distance from the shore, the cook has a long time. Simmer until long as it does not become myagkkoy during cooking try it, unless it was necessary, you remove from the heat density. Remove from boiling water, cool and put in the freezer if it is a lot, and once you do not spend. In brine freezer can store 1 – 1.5 months without losing their gastronomic qualities. Eating a variety of dishes of this brine is a matter of minutes. Very economical and practical. Enjoy your meal!
