Lard with adjika in husk

Another method of hot cooking salted lard with husks, but with the addition of spicy dry adjika.

Any method of preparing lard begins with the purchase of the main ingredient. The final taste of the dish depends on what kind of lard you buy. Believe me, this is true. Even if you know how to prepare lard in 150 ways, the main thing will still be what kind of fresh lard you bought.

First of all, you need to buy lard at the market. I have never come across delicious store-bought lard (maybe, of course, I’m going to the wrong stores!).

So you're in the market. Fresh lard is usually available in a huge variety. But not all pieces are suitable for pickling. First of all, we need to find really fresh lard. You can easily determine freshness by such an uneven structure; the lard is still literally alive, easily moving at the slightest touch. The consistency looks like frozen thick jelly. In addition, you need to pay attention to whether there is a thin, light, transparent strip between the lard and the skin. If it is there, it means the lard is well baked and you will get a tasty result! If not, then you should not take such lard for salting.

And yes, be sure to try to see if the skin on the lard is tough. To do this, just pry the skin with your fingernail and pull lightly, as if tearing it off. Is this procedure easy to perform? Know that the skin will be soft! Just do not trust this action to the seller. They usually show the buyer so quickly that the skin is thin and soft, which is better to check in person; after all, everyone has their own idea of ​​softness.

And finally, I always smell lard. The butchers I know are no longer surprised, but look at me with respect. The fact is that the pig must be well oiled (one of the first processes in processing a carcass), and not just like that, but ideally, oiled with straw. Then you will feel a subtle, incomparable aroma.

So, we chose a decent piece of lard and brought it home. And here lies the first danger - under no circumstances should you start salting fresh lard right away. It should take at least 1-2 days. During this time, the lard will age and subsequently it will be convenient to work with it. I usually put lard on the refrigerator shelf.


It's time to cook the lard. To do this, you need to cut it into convenient pieces; the bars should be small in size so that they are quickly saturated with spices. And don’t be confused by the fact that when you cut the lard into beautiful, even pieces, you will be left with scraps. I would advise you to immediately sort them: some parts can be salted, some can be used raw for frying (who would refuse scrambled eggs in lard or fried potatoes with lard?!)


Now you need that special ingredient in the recipe that will give a special charm to the lard: an unrealistically beautiful color. I'm talking about onion skins.

When I decided to make lard, it turned out that there were no onion skins at home. Well, that's okay. You went to the market for lard, didn't you? Walk along the vegetable rows and ask the sellers to pick up peelings from a box of onions. Not only will it be completely free, but the sellers will also thank you for cleaning their onion)))

Before cooking, the husks must be washed under running water.


To continue cooking, you need to put a pan of water on the fire. Please note: onion peels are an excellent dye. It gives a wonderful color to Easter dyes and, for example, lard. But the pan will also certainly become colored. Therefore, avoid using enamel pans, especially white ones.

As soon as the water in the pan boils, it should be generously salted. It’s not for nothing that I wrote “generously”, because lard is just that unique product where there is no excess salt. Now it's time to throw in the onion skins. Let the pan simmer over low heat for about 10-15 minutes for the brine to become permanently colored (as strong brine is often called).

If you think that the color is not intense enough, then throw in pieces of fresh beets - you will be guaranteed a beautiful shade.

It's time to put the lard into the solution. If onion peels cause you aesthetic discomfort, then remove them before adding lard. From my own experience, I will say that this is an extra step in the recipe; it is quite possible to leave the husks in the pan.

Boil the lard quite a bit - literally 5-7 minutes. You can object to me that this is very little, it is impossible to cook lard in such a short period of time. Of course it's impossible. But we don’t need boiled lard, that’s not our goal. Therefore, we will focus on short heat treatment. And then just turn off the heat under the pan and leave it to cool right with the lard.

During this gradual cooling, the lard will still be cooked, because it will always be in hot, and then warm, brine.


While the lard is cooling, we need to prepare a mixture in which we roll the lard. This mixture is an absolute fantasy. Consider your tastes and the taste preferences of your family members! This time I made a very simple deboning: I combined finely chopped garlic with a freshly ground mixture of peppers and herbs.


The cooled lard can be rolled in this mixture as a whole piece. Or you can stuff the lard with aromatic additives. Or - as I did - cut a large block of lard into several parts (we make the cut right up to the skin, but so that the block of lard does not fall into pieces, but remains the same size). It seems to me that with the latter method, deboning will be the most successful.

So, the lard is already aromatic, but it doesn’t hold its shape very well. Therefore, we will wrap the pieces in cling film and put them in the freezer - let them rest for about 1 day.

Time has passed, it's time to take a sample.

The most delicate lard, literally melts in your mouth. The color of the lard is very appetizing. And what a aroma! Help yourself! Even just put a few pieces of this lard on a piece of black bread - and enjoyment of the taste is guaranteed!

I tried to cook boiled lard in onion skins with garlic for the first time, and only because I received a letter from a reader in the mail with the question: “Do you have such a recipe on your blog?” As it turned out, it somehow escaped my attention during all the years that I have been running a culinary blog, so I decided to urgently fill this gap in my culinary biography.

To prepare today's dish, we will need the following products: lard, water, salt, onion peels, pepper, bay leaf and garlic. I can say with confidence that lard, which is boiled in onion skins, is a culinary masterpiece made from the most affordable ingredients, which fits perfectly into the list of Easter recipes! The main moment in its preparation comes at the stage when you walk around the market in search of this delicacy. I don’t recommend buying lard in a store, but the market, where you will be happy to taste the lard before buying it, will be the best place where you can find a fresh, high-quality and aromatic product. My dad taught me this simple wisdom, and I always try to stick to it.

Now it’s worth mentioning onion skins. It is used in the recipe to give the finished lard an appetizing smoked look. The taste qualities of the finished dish will not leave any “sugar-eater” indifferent.

Boiled lard in onion skins can be served the next day after preparation, but the cooking time itself needs no more than for similar meat dishes. The result that you end up with will please not only your household, but also your acquaintances and friends who come to visit!

Bon appetit!

Anyone can cook lard boiled in onion skins, regardless of the culinary experience they have. The whole process of preparing this appetizer from lard is extremely simple, and every housewife and host can cope with this task. Finally, I want to give a few tips so that your boiled lard turns out tasty and appeals to all tasters:
  • To cook lard we need 1 cup of salt, and this is not a typo. Prepare the dish based on the quantity of products indicated in the list of ingredients;
  • Take a responsible approach to choosing lard, as the final result of all your cooking will depend on it;
  • Try to use onion skins from fresh onions for cooking;
  • Before serving, be sure to let the finished lard rest in the refrigerator before cutting it into portions.

For some reason, many people mistakenly consider lard to be unhealthy food. But doctors and nutritionists are confident that this product contains a large and even unlimited amount of beneficial substances necessary for the human body.

Of course, you shouldn’t overeat it, but a few pieces a day will undoubtedly bring nothing but benefits.

Selection and preparation

Ideally, you should buy it at the market rather than in a store or supermarket. This is the only way you can find out information about the origin of the product and even try it.

By following a few simple rules, you can purchase a fresh, soft and tasty product.

  1. Color. Yellow and grayish color indicates that the product is not fresh. If the product has reddish veins, its taste will be slightly worse. Therefore, you need to choose white lard with a soft pink tint;
  2. Taste. Here you can only try it yourself and determine your taste. Often sellers give a product a deceptively attractive appearance that does not correspond to its taste. Feel free to try the product before purchasing;
  3. Smell. Boar has a peculiar smell, so it is better to give preference to pig lard. As a rule, it separates from the skin very easily; you can easily check this at the market. Ideally, the product should have a delicate aroma, with a sweetish-milky tint;
  4. Appearance. The thickness of the most delicious lard is usually from three to six centimeters. The product should stick easily onto a skewer. The best fat comes from the abdominal part of the animal, where it alternates with layers of meat.

Please note that the skin is without bristles and soft. Its color does not affect the quality at all, so it can be anything you want.

It would be good to pay attention to the presence of the veterinary service mark on the lard and check the seller’s documents for this product.

Before cooking, lard must be thoroughly rinsed in running water and allowed to dry.
