Cooking
For cooking eggs take the beef tenderloin. We clean the meat from the fat and films.
Cut the "head" and "tail".
On the market basturma sell in one piece. I make basturma at home and therefore cut the tenderloin along the fibers and into 3-4 slices, depending on size. Granulate is not necessary will dry out and become too hard.
Take a suitable container (preferably glass), RUB the meat with coarse salt mixed with nitrite (kills parasites). (Nitrite salt-buy online.) Close foil and in three days put in the fridge. Every night get, merge the resulting juice, turn over the pieces and back in the fridge.
After 3 days it turns out the meat.
Dry the meat with a towel, napkins, whatever we got.
Do the holes, threading the rope and tying a loop.
Hung beef for a day on the balcony, or as I have now, just in the room. In summer it is better to cover with gauze.
Comes SES, where the same without them. ;))
In the evening, collect all the ingredients for coating.
Mix everything together and slowly fill with boiling water. A little poured - mix. Add the mixture of peppers. Water is added so that the mixture is of medium thickness - not poured from a spoon, and slowly dripping. (If you poured water - add a spoon of utsho-suneli.) Try the taste. Close the bowl with foil and leave overnight. (I sometimes add a little salt and usually a mixture of peppers. In many recipes, write that meat after pickling must be washed. I don't do that, so the salt in the plaster add very little.)
Before coating, prepare a stick on which to hang meat. Gently coat each piece on all sides (I use for "painting" a silicone brush). Hang on the stick (to put on the Board, coating slides). So with all the pieces. Hung, put in a dry room (about a ventilated room - do not say, winter is in the room). The smell is lovely. If in the summer on the balcony - cover with gauze. But I think that flies are unlikely to sit on the peppers and garlic. After 4-5 days of trying on density. The plaster needs to dry, and the meat itself to become quite dense.
Take and eat. Stored in the refrigerator in the food paper.
