This product contains a small amount of dark colored meat with a rich flavor. In many cultures, national dishes are prepared from pork shank. It can be baked, fried, boiled, smoked and marinated. Before you start preparing the dish, it is important to properly prepare the product: burn the shank with an open flame (in order to get rid of the hairs on the skin), scrape the skin and hold the meat for several hours in a weak vinegar marinade (or any other). In order to emphasize the taste of the shank, you need to choose the right spices for it. You can use a ready-made shank mixture or make it yourself. Seasonings that go well with the shank are freshly ground black pepper, basil, coriander, sumac, turmeric, paprika, garlic, cumin, fennel, thyme. You can also rub the shank with sugar or honey - then after baking you get a beautiful caramel crust. The most popular method for preparing pork knuckle is oven baking. There are two options for this dish. In the first version, pork is pre-marinated for several hours, then wrapped in foil and baked for 2-3.5 hours. Half an hour before readiness, you can open the foil and increase the temperature in the oven - then you get an appetizing crust. The second option is to boil the knuckle for an hour, and then coat it with marinade and immediately send it to the oven. In the second method, the meat is juicier and softer. Pro tip - before baking, make cuts in the shank and place the cloves of garlic there - the dish will turn out to be more juicy and aromatic. Since pork shank is quite fatty and heavy meat, it is better to combine it with light side dishes: fresh vegetables or grilled vegetables, diet cereals. An important element of shank feeding is sauce. According to classical recipes, this dish is served with sweet and sour sauce (even jam is suitable), mustard, horseradish and adjika.
