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.
