Pork knuckle boiled in onion husk

How to weld a knuckle in an onion husk? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Onion husks will suffice a couple of handfuls. These are about 10-12 purified large bulbs. My garlic cloves are very large. If you take small ones, then take them more in number.

Rinse the onion husks well in cold water to remove particles of dust and earth from it.

Then transfer the husks to a saucepan, in which you will cook the knuckle. Take a saucepan large and deep. Pour clean water over the husks and add salt. Place on heat and bring to a boil. Take a dark saucepan, as the husk dyes very strongly and then it will be difficult to wash the light saucepan.

Then add the bay leaf and peppercorns to the pan.

Place the pork knuckle in hot water and return the pan to the heat. Preferably, the knuckle is completely submerged in water. But if she performs a little, there is nothing terrible either. It will just need to be turned over 1-2 times during the cooking process. Bring everything to a boil. Then cover the pan with a lid, make a small heat and cook the knuckle for 1. 5 hours. You can cook a knuckle both in a saucepan and in a slow cooker.

Cool the finished knuckle in water (at least just to a warm state). This is necessary in order for the meat to turn the darkest color. Then remove and soak excess moisture from the meat surface with paper towels. Run the peeled garlic through the garlic digester and coat on all sides with the crushed garlic. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 3-4 hours. The garlic meat becomes very fragrant.

During this time, the knuckle will set and it can be easily cut into sandwiches. Nice treat.
