Basturma is considered one of the most delicious meat snacks. Unfortunately, store-bought basturma is not always made from natural products. Therefore, such a snack can be prepared at home.
It is necessary
- –Beef (1, 7 kg);
- –Salt to taste;
- –Special chaman (25 g);
- –Sweet paprika (7 g);
- - ground black pepper (4 g);
- - garlic (1 head).
Instructions
Step 1
Rinse the beef thoroughly under running cool water. Remove excess streaks. Blot the meat with clean paper towels and rub with salt. Remember to poke the piece of meat in several places with a sharp knife. This must be done so that the salt gets inside the meat.
Step 2
Leave the beef in a cool place for up to 5 days. Each day it is necessary to turn the piece of meat several times so that the juice stands out and the beef is well marinated.
Step 3
Then wash the meat to remove excess salt. Wrap the beef tightly in a clean cotton cloth. Place under heavy abs for 2 days in a cool place. After that, unfold the meat and leave to dry in a ventilated area for 3 days.
Step 4
Mix all the ingredients you need until a uniform consistency. To do this, grind ground garlic, pepper, paprika and chaman. Dip the meat in spices on both sides and leave to dry again for 2-4 days.
Step 5
The readiness of basturma is determined by the color of the meat. If there is no blood on the cut and there are no bright red streaks, then the snack is ready to eat. Slice the beef into thin slices and serve as slices or to complement vegetable dishes.
