Pork knuckle baked in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 3 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake a pork knuckle in a sleeve in the oven? Prepare all the necessary products. Choose a larger shank so that there is not only a bone, but also more meat on it. The shank of a young pig is best suited; it will have thin white skin. This meat will be more tender. Choose naturally fermented soy sauce. Even better if you can find soy sauce that is made specifically for marinade.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash the shank well, dry it, make several deep punctures with a thin sharp knife.

3. STEP 3

   

   Insert thin slices of chopped garlic into the recesses of the knife (save the garlic clove for the marinade)

4. STEP 4

   

   Add chopped garlic to soy sauce. I put the clove through a press, but you can grate the garlic or chop it with a knife.

5. STEP 5

   

   Add ground pepper and stir the marinade. At this stage, you can add some of your favorite spices or herbs to the marinade: some people like suneli hops, for others, ground hot pepper or paprika will be enough. I do not recommend adding salt, since soy sauce is quite salty on its own.

6. STEP 6

   

   Pour the marinade over the shanks and leave for at least 30 minutes, up to a day. I recommend turning the shanks periodically so that they marinate evenly. Turn on the oven to 180 degrees in advance.

7. STEP 7

   

   Place the marinated shank in a baking sleeve and secure the edges with a clip.

8. STEP 8

   

   Make several punctures with a toothpick so that steam can escape and the sleeve does not burst. Bake the shank in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about 2 hours. The shank should be well baked. If you like fried pork skin, then 20-30 minutes before the end of cooking, tear off the top sleeve and let the skin brown.

9. STEP 9

   

   This baked shank can be served as a main course, but it is also delicious cold as a slice. Bon appetit!

Winner (3rd place) of the competition for the best recipe (07/27/2020-08/02/2020) Review 1: The knuckle looks good against this background. Onions and tomatoes are in the background. Everything is in harmony. The photo is bright, there is enough light. Review 2: I really liked the recipe for pork knuckle baked in a sleeve in the oven. Well-cooked shank is very tasty!!! This recipe has a rather interesting marinade for the shanks. The recipe is well written, there are clear step-by-step instructions, and there are useful tips. It’s convenient, of course, that the shank is cooked in a sleeve. If you follow the recommendations in the recipe, you should get a great dish!!! Separately, of course, I would like to note the gorgeous, very appetizing photo. I vote for this recipe. Review 3: There are a lot of this author and, in principle, this photograph can characterize many of the works this week, I’ll choose this one. I have already said more than once that the style and background chosen by the author are more suitable for country style, rustic. And all these preparations and meat with this repeating composition look most advantageous. In this case, a large tasty shank attracts all the attention and it fills the frame and it doesn’t even matter what lies there in the background. Tasty, harmonious in color and composition.

For dinner I prepared a pork knuckle in a sleeve baked in the oven, or rather even two small knuckles. They weighed a little less than a kilogram each. I defrosted them in water so that the blood came out and the meat became lighter. The marinade in the recipe is very simple, but the meat turns out tasty and aromatic. I added chopped garlic, paprika and curry to the soy sauce. I rubbed the shanks themselves with salt, because my soy sauce is not very salty. I made cuts on the skin and in the meat itself and inserted slices of garlic. I marinated it immediately in a baking sleeve, turning it often so that the meat was better marinated. After about three hours I set the shanks to bake. The process took two hours. They baked well, the skin on top became crispy and golden brown. The meat is very soft and tender! The aroma of garlic is so delicious! This is a very tasty dish, I served the shanks with potatoes and homemade pickles.

With the onset of cold weather in the autumn and winter, I like to cook jellied pork knuckle. For a change, I decided to use the pork knuckle in another dish. Baked pork knuckle in the oven looks very appetizing, you look at the photo on the Internet and involuntarily drool. I chose a recipe on my favorite website and bought two not too large pork knuckles. The shanks are meaty with a thin white skin. I started cooking. I thoroughly washed the shanks with running water, removed small bones that had crumbled from chopping with an ax or something else. I absorbed excess moisture from them with a paper towel. Using a sharp knife, I cut the “pockets” for the garlic. I cut the peeled garlic into thin slices and placed them in deep “pockets.” I placed the prepared shanks in a deep bowl for marinating. Thoroughly pour soy sauce over it. Although soy sauce has a salty taste, I also add a little salt to the meat. Meat loves salt. I used the “Salt, Herb and Garlic” seasoning in the grinder. I left the pork knuckles in a warm place for about half an hour, then marinated them in the refrigerator for a day. After some time, I turned the shanks over and poured the marinade over them with a spoon. The next day, the marinated shanks are ready for the next stage of preparation. I placed a baking sleeve in a baking dish. Carefully moved the pork knuckles into the sleeve. I tied it on both sides, made several punctures so that excess steam would escape. I like the baking sleeve because the food is cooked in its own juices and turns out juicy. I baked the pork knuckles in a preheated oven for two hours at 200°C. I set the temperature higher because... my oven is a little weak. The pork knuckle baked in the oven turned out aromatic, juicy and tender. I can’t even find words about the color, it’s just bomb. The golden brown crust is simply a sight for sore eyes. Many thanks to the author for the recipe! Minimum ingredients - maximum pleasure!
