Jellied meat aspic recipe
Ingredients
- 600 g of beef or Black Angus beef (choice of brisket , white steak , priest's hat , beef fish )
- 7 g of isinglass
- 1 onion
- 1 carrot
- 1 lemon
- Salt and Pepper To Taste
Method
First you need to prepare the meat broth for the jelly. Place the meat cut into pieces, the onion cut into large pieces and the carrot cut into chunks in a large pot, cover with cold water and bring to the boil, add salt and leave to cook over a very low heat for at least 2 hours, or until the meat is not so soft that it falls apart, turn everything off and let it rest.
Now filter the broth through a cloth sieve at least a couple of times and keep it aside. Now shred the meat (creating a similar pulled pork) eliminating all the fat, bones or hard parts. Soak and squeeze the isinglass well in cold water, prepare muffin molds or decorated silicone molds and pour in a few pieces of shredded meat, a few pieces of vegetables from the broth to taste, add the lemon juice and a sprinkling of pleasure of black pepper. Now cover everything with the rehydrated isinglass dissolved in the warm broth, then let it rest at a comfortable temperature for a few minutes.
Once they have cooled, place them in the fridge for at least three hours. Once the time has elapsed, before serving, check that the meat has not released any fat and, if necessary, clean it slowly with a fork. To take the aspics out of the oven, immerse the molds in warm or slightly hot water and everything will come off quickly. Serve the aspic with a drizzle of oil, some side vegetables or a Russian salad.
