Oh, another interesting recipe! Thanks to Khrumka and the author of the recipe! I’ve been meaning to cook knuckle for a long time, but I just can’t get around to it... Honestly, this dish is not at all popular in our area. I can only make jellied meat from the shank. Marinated in adjika, also with basil and spices - it should be delicious! I actually have a multicooker of a different model, but the functions are probably the same. Please tell me, does the shank turn out soft after baking? Which form is best served - cold or hot? Thanks again, I'll cook!

Thanks for your comment and attention to the recipe! The shank turns out very soft and juicy! It is best to serve hot immediately after cooking. If you can’t serve it right away, unwrap it and leave it in the multicooker bowl to heat. Another little piece of advice: it’s better to take the shank from the front leg, where the bone is smaller.
