Are you stuck with Seder cooking and have no idea how to start cooking the meat? Maor Waldman explains how to do it • Festive recipes
During the Passover holiday, all citizens of the State of Israel are required by law to celebrate their holiday home with the nuclear family without being able to travel and stay with their relatives and friends. For the first time, this forces many people to prepare their own holiday dishes that they are usually used to getting ready on Mother's table.
Maor Waldman, owner of MEATEO meat allowance, explains what kind of meat is suitable for what type of cooking, the differences between the dimensions, and also shares three easy Passover recipes.
Part # 1: Entrecote or RIBE EYE
The entrecote is undoubtedly one of the most loved parts of Israel, especially for steak making. It is characterized by thin fat strips, giving it a marble-like appearance. If you roast the lump as it will get roast beef, this portion is not suitable for extended cooking or roasting.
Part # 2: Ribs / Rear / Unter Reeve / Ripen
Suitable for very long cooking and will not be reflected in quick grilling. It can also be used for patties, but it is recommended to grind it twice for this purpose. Cooking or roasting as a whole does not go well.
Part # 3: Chest
The cow's breast is a front full of thick fiber and considered very oily, so only long cooking will fully taste and soften the fat. This part is often used in the Jewish kitchen for making meats, or as a source of meat pork, a kind of soup where beef liquids are the center of the dish and not a quick roast.
Part # 4: Central Shoulder
Can be very suitable for those who are interested in cooking a little healthier, this portion is also suitable for long cooking or cooking meats.
Part # 5: Shoulder roast
Of the only parts that are suitable for both long cooking and short roasting, but the second option will flatter him. Except for bouncing, this is meat that is suitable for any type of cooking or roasting.
Part # 6: Simulated fillets
It is a long, round, almost symmetrical chunk that deals very nicely with freezing, almost completely wrapped in skin and a thin layer of fat. Very suitable for making roast in sauce or for long cooking.
Part # 8: Anterior muscle
A portion that is suitable for long cooking, but not for very long cooking because then it may fall apart, so it is recommended to cook it as a whole or cubes. It is also unsuitable for short cooking, its texture is soft, and for relatively long cooking, its flavors can be exhausted quite easily, perfect for making Osobuku.
Part # 9: Asado
This is a piece that comes with the rib bone, made of layers of fat and meat. It gives each dish a special flavor, due to the division between the meat and the fat. Also suitable for slow roasting on the grill, but not in direct contact with the fire, but with indirect fire, is not suitable for quick roasting.
Chunk 11: Synth
It is a portion that enjoys an almost fat lump and a thick oily layer over it. Suitable for making thin or thick steaks, carpaccio, skewers, and beef stew, also suitable for making roast beef.
Part 12: Fillet
Undoubtedly, one of the highest quality parts of the cow is suitable for short roasting. Will work well either as a whole portion or as a meat ingredient in the broth, but in both of these forms the cooking must be short. It is highly recommended to slice the meat into thin slices.
Part 17: Felde
Part of cow's belly bottom, fatty and of many dominant and flavors. Particularly suitable for long cooking, for goulash, minced meat or as a whole portion used as a meat stew.
