Ingredients for Pastrami "Twice-forgotten"

Step by step instruction of cooking Pastrami "Twice-forgotten"

Шаг 1

Prepare the marinade. In a saucepan pour 125 ml (half a Cup) of water, put half the cinnamon sticks, 5 buds cloves and halved onion with the whole husk. Put on the fire.

Шаг 2

While the marinade is boiling, in a large bowl, add mustard powder, black pepper, garlic powder, 3 Bay leaves, add the honey or dark molasses (I prefer to take the syrup of sugar beet) and pour soy sauce. Stir.

Шаг 3

When the marinade in a saucepan to boil, remove from the heat and pour in the vinegar and pour into a bowl with soy sauce. And now this fragrant liquid dip our meat as Cleopatra in a bath of milk. Close the lid, remove the cold and for the first time forget about it. The calculation is as follows: 24 hours for one kilogram of meat. If suddenly remembered, opened the lid, turned the meat back in the fridge to set and forget.

Шаг 4

My hefty slice bathed in the marinade for 36 hours. As you can see, the meat has darkened, salty, losing slightly in volume.

Шаг 5

Take out the meat from the bowl with the marinade, soak a paper towel dry and put into a sleeve for baking. Tied tightly, top holes DO NOT. Put the meat on a baking sheet and put into a COLD oven. Preheat the oven to 90°C and again forget about the meat. What time? My piece of meat, it took 4.5 hours. At low temperature the meat is cooked somewhere around 2.5 - 3 hours.

Шаг 6

Or rather just the readiness of meat is determined by the temperature in the middle of the piece. Temperature fried beef (ie no blood and the raw pink) reaches 80°C, regardless of the method of cooking, whether frying, stewing or boiling.
