Cooking Tricks

There are a lot of cooking options, as well as the composition of dishes with cabbage and ribs. Turn on your imagination and choose combinations, cooking methods that will appeal to you and your loved ones. However, do not forget about some little things that will help not to spoil the food:

  • if you cook meat with sauerkraut, try if it is too sour. If the cabbage is very salty, then it is better to soak it in water for 10 or 20 minutes before cooking. Soaking time depends on how salty the workpiece is;
  • cooking a mature white head also requires a little preparation. To keep the vegetable soft and juicy, remember it with salt for a couple of minutes;
  • ribs with bacon, especially pork, can be fried without oil so that the dish does not turn out too fatty.

One of the most simple recipes smoked pork ribs with fresh cabbage. I specifically made the recipe with a minimum of ingredients to make it easier. But still, the dish was delicious. Smoked ribs and fried cabbage add flavor to the dish. This has been known since ancient times. There are similar dishes in German and Polish national cuisines.

Need:

Smoked pork ribs - 300 g
Fresh cabbage - 500 g
Vegetable oil - 2-3 tbsp. spoons
Onion - 50 g (0.5-1 onion)
Water (broth) - 100 -200 g
Salt to taste

Frying pan, with large sides (stewpan) - 24 cm, and more, with a diameter

About the ingredients:

Usually smoked ribs are sold in a large whole piece (about a quarter of all the ribs), often with a ridge and neck. With the help of a small knife, usually called "vegetable peeler", we cut this piece into separate ribs and vertebrae. With smoked it's easy. Although with the help of such a knife I also butchered a fresh whole ram. We break long ribs in half on the edge of the table. It is undesirable to chop, small bones are formed, about which, when eaten, you can break your teeth. If you want it to be beautiful, you can cut it with an electric jigsaw, a metal saw.

Cabbage can be used both fresh and sauerkraut, as well as their mixture. It is desirable to squeeze sour, and even rinse, when cooked, it becomes much more sour.

Onion, common. You can do without it.

Salt is added depending on the salinity of the smoked ribs.

Cooking:

Smoked pork ribs divided by joints and vertebrae.

We shred the cabbage.

In a frying pan, over high heat, heat vegetable oil, spread the cabbage. Slightly fry, stirring. To make a small part brown.

Lay out the smoked ribs. Add, depending on the juiciness of the cabbage, 100-200 grams of water or broth.

Switch to the smallest fire. And simmer, stirring occasionally, for an hour and a half.

At the end of the stew, add finely chopped onion. We try, add some salt if necessary. And simmer another fifteen minutes.

Serve hot. You can remove the meat from the ribs so that the bones do not interfere with the eaters.

A small explanation - if we cooked from fresh ribs, then it would be better to add carrots and tomato paste for taste. But since we have smoked meats, they will give an additional flavor. Plus, roasting cabbage will make this vegetable more interesting in terms of taste. Hence this a small amount of ingredients. But, of course, if you wish, you can add carrots, tomato paste, and some spices.

Note: it’s more convenient to cook such a dish in a slow cooker (for the same hour and a half) or in a slow cooker-pressure cooker (for 30 minutes, on standard “stewing” programs or, as in the “meat” I have Stebe).

Everything new is well forgotten old. And now I want to return not only to the spiritual food of our ancestors, but also to the old, undeservedly forgotten traditions and recipes of our grandmothers and great-grandmothers.

Sauerkraut goes well with smoked meats

Choosing the right components

Particular attention should be paid to the selection of products for our peasant dinner. If possible, smoked ribs, smoked knuckle should be purchased at the market from farmers who smoke meat themselves. It is fundamentally different in taste from the one that can be purchased at the supermarket, and most importantly, it has an undeniable advantage in quality. If you do not have the opportunity to purchase farm smoked meats, it does not matter. You can cook them at home too.

And now let's start cooking the dish itself - sauerkraut (sausages, sausages, bacon, knuckle, ribs).

Sauerkraut is the queen of peasant food and a storehouse of vitamins and microelements, which we need so much in autumn and winter. Due to its ability to contribute proper digestion, normalizing the intestinal microflora, in cooking it can be combined with non-lean meats and various smoked meats. Her choice should be approached very seriously. The color of the leaves should be bright, white with a yellowish tint, the leaves themselves should be dense and resilient, the smell should not be sharp, not sour.

What will we need?

  • Sauerkraut - 1 kg;
  • smoked meats - 1 kg;
  • onions - 3 pcs.;
  • carrots - 2 pcs.;
  • tomato paste - 2 tbsp. spoons;
  • meat broth - 0.5 cups;
  • smoked lard- 100 g.

Cooking technology:

  1. Prepare the products: peel and cut the onion into half rings, wash the carrots (carotell), peel and grate, rinse the sauerkraut, chop it into strips, put it in a colander and let it drain. Mix tomato paste with meat broth. Cut the smoked lard into cubes.
  2. Prepare smoked meats: cut into small pieces along the costal bone (cut sausages into rings about two centimeters thick).
  3. Put the smoked lard in a saucepan and let it melt, fry the onion until golden brown. You need to stir often, not allowing it to burn. Add grated carrot and continue to simmer for about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Add cabbage, mix everything thoroughly and pour tomato paste with broth. Salt is not necessary, because. required amount salt is already contained in the sauerkraut itself.
  5. Add smoked meats or knuckle if you are making smoked knuckle with sauerkraut. Move everything again and send to bake for an hour at a temperature of 160 ºС.

After the time has passed ready meal should not be removed immediately oven, and it is advisable to leave it in it for 10-15 minutes.

An important aspect of the traditional peasant dinner is table setting. In order to convey the flavor of ancient traditions, let's take pottery - plates for food and common dish for our delicacy. Before serving, the dishes can be heated in the oven that has already been turned off in order to retain heat longer.
