The most delicious grandmother cooked gums, a forgotten recipe from the Soviet Union

The best recipe of my grandmother, which I remember since childhood, is gums, or liver patties in a greasy net. Not so long ago, the recipe for an old dish on her channel "Galina Kitchen" shared the leading culinary blog and a beautiful gypsy hostess Galina. We suggest you cook it to once again feel this unique taste.



During cooking, the net does not allow juices to leak out. And along the way enriches the dish with most of the fat contained in it. Try to cook any meat in it. It will turn out completely different: more juicy and surprisingly spicy. We can say that this is a kind of insurance policy for those housewives who are afraid to overdry the meat.

Best Grandma Recipe Ingredients
  • 500g beef liver
  • netting
  • 50g lard
  • 1 bulb
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic
  • 1 tsp dried garlic
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 50 ml of water
  • 1 tsp salt


Preparation
  1. Wash the purchased film in cold water, put it on the cutting board. Cut into pieces of the right size.


  2. Clean the beef liver.
  3. Cut the liver and lard to place them in a meat grinder.


  4. Pass the sliced liver, lard and onions through the meat grinder.


  5. Add to the resulting minced salt, pepper, dried garlic and a few cloves of crushed fresh garlic.
  6. Stir everything to uniformity. The ground is pretty liquid, but it should be.


  7. Fill the minced sheets of greasy mesh (a tablespoon is enough). Wrap it in film like blueberries in cabbage leaf.


  8. Put the oils on the heated pan with the seam down.
  9. Roast a lot of oil on both sides until it's full.


  10. Put it on a plate. Pour the oil (no longer needed). Add to the pan some water and the carcass of the oil under the lid for about 10 minutes.
  11. That's all, Galina's gypsy gums are ready. And more information about the process of their preparation can be found in the video at the link.




The sebaceous net can be found at the butchers' market, and the dishes cooked with it are definitely worth the effort. Bon appetit!
