Botillo

Although I live in Madrid, I'm from the great county of El Bierzo. Thanks to HEMC 28 I had the perfect excuse to post the recipe for Botillo, typical dish of Bembridge and revered by all who try it. Botillo is basically the ribs and pickled pig's tail and entripados that crashes and healing for eight days and then cook it with cabbage or cabbage and potatoes. In the recipe I will tell you how to do it from the beginning, my parents are what make the first part of entripar and heal and give it to me and ready to cook, I'd do without them. Well, I start to see if you like.

Ingredients:

• 1 kg to 1.5 kg of pork ribs and tail chopped
• 18 g of salt per kg of meat
• paprika 23 g per kg of meat (see the brand or the ingredients to assure it does not contain gluten)
• 2 or 3 cloves of garlic per kg of meat
• a pinch of oregano
• a glass of water for every kg of meat
• 1
blind gut
• 4 or 5 potatoes
• medium cabbage or cabbage 1

Preparation of botillo:
Mix all the marinade ingredients, salt, paprika, chopped garlic, oregano, glass of water and meat. Allow meat to marinate for two days, stirring once a day. At the same time, clean the gut blind and gets soaked with water and vinegar for two days. The casing is clean and change the water and vinegar once a day.

Once past these two days, drain well the gut and gets into it the marinated meat, pressing it so that no air inside. Tied and hung in a place with no humidity and no heat for 8 days. We must make the wineskins, like sausages, preferably in frost days to cure the meat. You could also make a fire to help in healing 2 or 3 times in eight days. After eight days after you can cook.

botillo Preparation:
botillo Puts in a pot large enough (it has to fit the botillo, vegetables and potatoes) and covered with water. Catching fire and cook for one hour per kg weight of botillo. When I left an hour of cooking, the pot is poured into the cabbage or cabbage, washed and cut into chunks. When it is 1 / 2 hour, thrown into the pot the potatoes peeled and cut into large right. At the end of cooking time, take it out botillo to a plate and a knife to open the casing and removed all the meat inside. Take out the vegetables and potatoes are served as accompaniment. Just an advice but is much richer with a good wine from El Bierzo. Take advantage!
