Ingredients for - Chicken consomme
How to cook deliciously - Chicken consomme
1 . Stage
Wash the chicken, dry it with paper towel and cut it into portions. Place the meat in a mold lined with foil, and send the meat to roast in an oven heated to 180 degrees C for 20 minutes. Brown the meat so that the broth has a nice color.
2 . Stage
Cut carrots into circles, leeks or spring onions into rings, and celery stalks into small slices.
3 . Stage
Place the roasted meat together with the liquid in a saucepan, add the chopped vegetables. Add bouquet of garni. You can not make it, but just add fresh rosemary, thyme, bay leaf. I used a tea spoon, in which I added thyme and rosemary.
4 . Stage
Add 2 - 2.5 liters of water. Salt and pepper the broth to taste. Put the saucepan on the fire and let the broth come to a boil. At the initial stage, after boiling, foam will form, it should be carefully collected. Once the foam stops forming, cover the saucepan with a lid and simmer the broth for about 2 hours over low heat.
5 . Stage
Pour the broth through a colander to get rid of the pieces of meat and vegetables. It's not clear enough yet!
6 . Stage
Now comes the second step of making consomme - clarification of the broth. For this we need an egg white with shells (wash the egg thoroughly!).
7 . Stage
In the strained broth add the protein and the shells. Put the broth on the fire and cook it for 30 minutes. After a while, a dirty-colored foam will form - this is the egg white collecting all the flakes from the broth when curdling and making it transparent.
8 . Stage
Carefully move aside the foam and use a ladle to select the resulting broth. The resulting broth should be strained through several (at least four!) layers of gauze.
9 . Stage
Prepare chicken liver meatballs. Add the fried onion and egg to the washed and ground liver.
10 . Stage
Salt the stuffing to taste, add pepper, breadcrumbs. Add breadcrumbs so much that you can form balls from the stuffing. Add gradually!
11 . Stage
Roll minced meat balls in flour and fry in vegetable oil for about 5 minutes.
12 . Stage
I also decided to add to the broth an assortment of vegetables, which I previously boiled.
