The ham is delicious

The ham is delicious

Category: Meat dishes

Ingredients
not fatty pork	1 kg
nitrite salt (you can also use the usual one, but add 20 ml of ascorbic acid, purchased in ampoules, in the pharmacy, to preserve the color)	18 g
Sahara	2 g
chopped garlic	30 g
black pepper	2 g
gelatin	10 g
all the rest	taste

Cooking method

• I cut the meat into pieces of 2-3 cm, add spices, using a sausage syringe (you can use the top part from a plastic, 2-liter bottle) I stuff a callogen casing, caliber 65mm.
• I tie it with twine and send it to the refrigerator for 2 days.
• I put a large pot of water and at 80C "simmer" the ham until the inside of the bars is 70C.
• Then I cool it down and refrigerate for 12 hours.
• It's a pity that I can't show the photo, because I'm a beginner

Very good ham looked, tasted for sure too. I was interested to hear about ascorbic acid in ampoules, I need to ask the pharmacy too.

max-mmsv, Add ascorbic acid only if we take ordinary salt? And if nitrite, then do not? Am I getting it right? You also wrote everything else to your liking. And what and how much do you add to your taste?

And if you put ordinary salt and do not add ascorbic acid, then it will not affect the taste, and the color is more gray? Right?

max-mmsv, Add ascorbic acid only if we take regular salt? And if nitrite, then do not? Am I getting it right? You also wrote everything else to your liking. And what and how much do you add to your taste?

Exactly! If I use ordinary salt, then with ascorbic acid, but if I use nitrite, then I don't add acid. Well, on the account of the taste, I like it sharper and for myself I add more pepper, sometimes I add dried red sweet pepper "petals"

And if you put ordinary salt and do not add ascorbic acid, then it will not affect the taste, and the color is more gray? Right?

Yes, right. This is all just for "aesthetics"

Nice ham. It's interesting about ascorbic acid, it's the first time I've heard

Very appetizing ham. Where do you buy nitrite salt? I didn't find here

Can you take beef instead of pork?

It is unlikely that veal or chicken is better. The beef is tough, but as an option, you can use pineapple juice, BUT VERY CAREFULLY !!!!

Maxim, please clarify the account of beef and pineapple juice. Made beef ham. Very tasty, but those who have problems with teeth cannot. Maybe a magic secret ...

If you keep the beef in pineapple or kiwi juice, the structure of the meat changes, but you don't need to keep it for long - 30-40 minutes, and then rinse.For 1 kg of beef - 2 kiwi or 100 g of pineapple juice

Thanks, I will try.
