Pork head brawn

This wonderful appetizer is especially good with horseradish! We recommend! I really like a meat product made from pigs' heads called brawn. Pork heads are much cheaper than meat, and the taste is much better than any sausage. Great home cooked food. My family loves brawn with horseradish. A good snack with a steamy bottle of vodka, an excellent breakfast, and so on and so forth. You can praise it endlessly, it’s better to take it and cook it at least according to this recipe.

So my head is boiling, I will make it according to your recipe, I will make it and give you a rating. But I think it will be delicious, the same jellied meat, current with one type of animal, well, so, there’s beef in there too.

brawn, as far as I know, is prepared from the head as indicated in the recipe, and after boiling and disassembling, it is stuffed into the stomach, I also heard that the pig’s head completely enters its stomach!

Ladies and gentlemen, believe my experience as a villager: the head for the brawn should be cooked for 10 - 12 hours, preferably overnight. After this, the meat will be especially tender. We separate the meat and lard into a separate pan or a large 5 - 6 liter bowl, do not add anything there. Salt to taste, add garlic cut into pieces (you can cut some, grate some, it will be more aromatic, sprinkle with pepper, seasonings, whichever one likes - I - hops-suneli, ground coriander). Mix everything very well, taste, if anything is missing, add. Yes, then put it in a bag and press it in a cold place. The thickness of the brawn is up to 15 cm; it is usually shaped into a cube, but wide. A day - and it’s ready. And if you add water there - sorry, if you don’t like it, it’s a big deal when selling it on the market... for jelly lovers - there’s jellied meat.
