Making homemade chicken ham is easy. It turns out to be a delicious universal dish for breakfast or dinner, and you can also have a snack with them. And no preservatives, unlike similar store products.
If desired, chicken meat can be mixed with turkey meat, it turns out even tastier. But today we will cook pure chicken ham.
Preparation:
First you need to separate all the meat from the bones. I don’t use the skin, but I don’t throw out the bones, you can cook an excellent chicken soup from them, for example, here. I never throw away chicken fat either, I freeze it and then add it to any minced meat.
In this recipe, the most laborious thing is to separate the meat from the bones, it usually takes me 25-30 minutes. If you use ready-made, then this is generally a recipe for the lazy.
However, if you cook homemade ham only from breast fillets, it will turn out completely dry. It is imperative to add meat from the legs, but cutting them into fillets is a piece of cake.
So, from a carcass weighing 1.5 kg, 730 g of pure meat was obtained. We cut it into small pieces.
Salt and pepper to taste, add garlic passed through a press and pour gelatin on top.
Mix everything well. Then we cut off the roasting sleeve approximately 35 cm long and transfer the meat into it.
We form a tight roll, trying not to leave any air inside. For reliability, you can wrap it on top with thread or tape. It is important that no water gets inside.
Sometimes, if there is no baking sleeve, I use regular plastic bags. First, I put the meat in one bag, fold it tightly and seal it with tape. Then I put it in another bag, pack it tight again, seal it with tape and wrap it with thick thread on top. This is how I cooked recently and took these photos to show how it all looks:
But back to our today's roll.We take a saucepan of a suitable diameter, put a roll in it, pour water and put it on fire.
After boiling, reduce the fire to a minimum and cook under the lid for an hour or a little more.
At the end of this time, we take out our ham on a plate and, without opening the package, cool it.
The cooled chicken ham, again in the package, is put in the refrigerator for 4 hours, or better overnight.Serve into slices.
The quality of the sausages sold in stores today leaves much to be desired. However, sometimes you really want to eat a sandwich with aromatic ham in the morning. Do not deny yourself the pleasure. Even kids can enjoy delicious ham if you make it yourself. Well, no, you say. - it's completely impossible. Don't worry, there is absolutely nothing complicated. Making chicken ham at home is quite simple, and how delicious it is! There are dozens of recipes, following which you will get excellent sausage without harmful additives and flavors.
You don't have to be a professional chef or have expensive equipment at home. You don't even need gut stuffing tools. Homemade chicken ham is made using the simplest tools. So, you need a kitchen scale, a cutting board and knives, kitchen towels, a bowl and baking sleeve, a deep saucepan with a lid, a spatula, and a plastic container. We will look at several recipes today, but this basic set will be needed for each of them.
Homemade chicken ham is prepared so quickly and easily that, having tried this dish once, you will definitely not give up on it. You will need to defrost the chicken (one serving is an average carcass, weighing about one and a half kilograms). Rinse it thoroughly and remove any existing hemp and feathers. If the liver, lung and heart remain inside, then they also need to be removed. Now we rinse the carcass from the inside, then dry it with paper towels. The finished chicken goes to the cutting board. Now you need to prepare a mixture from it for the future ham.
Homemade chicken ham is made from pure pulp, without the addition of soy and grains, thickeners and stabilizers. Now we need to divide the carcass into parts and remove all the meat from each of them. It must be cut into small pieces, up to 1 cm in size. The skin, bones, neck and back can be useful for making broth, so put them in a bag and put them in the freezer. Pieces of fat can also be saved, but they do not go into the ham.
What makes sausage so tasty? Of course, because of the professional set of spices, the secret of which only the technologists of large enterprises have. However, today it is no longer a secret that most of these supplements are not at all beneficial for the body, so it would be much better to do with natural flavors.
So, from one chicken we got about 800 g of pure pulp. Now you need to season it with salt. Here, each hostess has her own calculations. You can take 0.5 teaspoon as a basis. Additionally, sprinkle the meat with black pepper, add 2-3 cloves of garlic, previously passed through a garlic press. At this stage, you can add green peas, chopped carrots, red peppers, and any seasonings you like. Stir well and leave to marinate for 15 minutes.
The homemade chicken ham recipe involves cooking in an artificial casing. To do this, sprinkle the marinated meat with gelatin and mix thoroughly again. Now you are faced with an important task - to form a tight roll. To do this, you need to choose a shell. This can be a baking film or a plastic bag. The roll must be folded very tightly so that no air remains in it. If you are using thin cling film, then you need to make several layers. To avoid a breakout or puncture, the future ham must be tightened in one layer of aluminum foil. For reliability, wrap the roll with thread very well. Why is so much attention paid to tightness? Because if the water seeps into the meat, it will wash away the precious juice and the ham will suffer a lot.
As you can see, making chicken ham at home is not at all as difficult as it might seem at first glance. The formed roll must be lowered into a deep, wide saucepan and filled with water so that it covers it by about 4-5 fingers. After boiling, reduce the fire to a minimum. A very important point: the roll should lie flat on the bottom, without kinks. Therefore, the dishes must be of a suitable diameter.
It will take about an hour and a half to cook the ham, under a covered lid. Then drain the water and leave it to cool completely to room temperature. After that, without opening the bag, transfer the roll into a plastic container and leave it on the refrigerator shelf overnight.
Cooking chicken ham at home is almost done. Cut thin pieces with a sharp knife, spread on a flat dish and decorate with herbs, mayonnaise and ketchup. You can immediately make delicious sandwiches by adding fresh cucumber or mustard to them. Children will be happy to eat them. Optionally, you can add this ham to salads.
If you wish, you can reduce the calorie content of this dish using only chicken breasts. But in this case, the ham is too dry. It is recommended to add butter or a few raw legs to such meat. In this recipe, we considered adding a minimum amount of spices, but you can change everything as you wish. Provence or spices that are used for meat dishes, turmeric, all of this can find their use in this dish with great success.
In addition, many housewives use fresh bell peppers and carrots, cut into long strips, canned peas and corn, boiled eggs, fried mushrooms and olives, gherkins and nuts, as well as a wide variety of greens. With such additives, chicken ham at home (we will give a photo in our article) becomes even brighter and more festive.
Would you like to have a real square loaf of ham on your table, elegant and delicious? Then the next recipe is just for you. Since we can already cook chicken ham at home, it remains only to work on the details. You will need the same amount of meat, dry rosemary and a bag of milk or kefir inside with foil. An empty juice bag is also great.
However, we recommend changing the recipe slightly. We cut the chicken breast into small pieces, and grind the rest of the meat into minced meat using a meat grinder or blender. Mix everything thoroughly, sprinkle with seasonings and tamp it tightly into the prepared box, cover it with foil or foil on top. Now you need to find a deep saucepan, and put an inverted saucer on the bottom. We install the box in it so that the water reaches the place where the minced meat ends. Now bring to a boil and cook for an hour and a half.
This is another option for making homemade treats that you may like. In this case, we suggest taking a ham maker of your choice, that is, a special silicone mold in the form of a cylinder with holes along the edges and special plugs. It is ideal for making a loaf of the usual shape.
If you do not have such a device, then do not worry, chicken ham will be cooked at home in a bag at home just as well. To do this, pick up a can of tomato paste or other canned food and cut both bottoms from it. Insert a baking bag into it. It is best to make it double, otherwise there is a risk that it will be damaged during the cooking process and water will get inside. And then everything is according to the same recipe. We fill the sleeve with minced meat, fix it at both ends and cook in a saucepan with water.
And for this recipe, you need a metal mold. Homemade chicken ham in the oven is no worse than a supermarket delicacy. For a form measuring 13 by 24 centimeters, you will need 600 g of chicken breast and 300 g of thighs. Grind the fillet in a blender and cut the thighs into pieces. Add 2 tablespoons of milk powder, 1 egg and a couple of tablespoons of soy sauce, salt and your favorite seasonings.
Now line the baking dish with foil, and on top with baking paper. Tamp the minced meat thoroughly and cover it with the risers. Preheat oven to 180 degrees and bake the ham for about 40 minutes. Then wait until it has completely cooled down.
As you can see, there are more than enough options for preparing a delicious snack. But we will not stop there. We've got the next awesome dish next in line - homemade bottled chicken ham. The composition has been slightly modified to show you a lot of variability. Each housewife can reshape it to suit her own taste, and each time a new dish will be obtained.
You will need: two legs, 300 g of chicken liver and 250 g of hearts, as well as spices. Legs must be placed in water and boiled for 50 minutes. Do not pour out the broth, we will still need it. Boil the hearts and liver separately in a saucepan for 40 minutes. After pre-cooling, cut them and the legs into small pieces. Now pour about one and a half ladle of chicken broth into a separate container and add 5 g of gelatin to it. Heat the solution in a water bath to dissolve the gelatin. Salt the meat, add spices and pour over the resulting broth. Take a pre-prepared plastic bottle that has its neck cut off. Pour the resulting mixture into it and cover it with a lid on top that fits in diameter. Place a weight on top, such as a can of water. It will press the meat part down, it will not float, and the ham will be denser. Now put the delicacy in the refrigerator overnight, after which you can cut it into portions.
As you can see, there are many ways to make homemade ham. Each of them can become your signature recipe. Try to cook such a sausage with your own homemade. We are sure that they will no longer want to look at the grocery stores. In addition, the abundance of variations will allow you to find the most delicious recipe for your household, taking into account their preferences. By analogy, you can use other meat, such as turkey or pork. And again, on the way out, you will receive a new dish.
I had to start learning how to cook sausages and hams at home. It is not clear what in stores, but we love sausage with the whole family. And the child was taught to love (I don’t know if this is good). And if you ask your daughter what she wants more, candy or sausage, she will choose sausage.
Collecting recipes for homemade sausages, similar in taste to store-bought sausages, and in benefits to healthy ones, I discovered a recipe for chicken ham at home. Efforts are minimal: just chop the chicken meat, add spices and cook, and the next morning take a sample. The taste is excellent. My daughter did not even realize that her mother had cooked the chicken ham, she is still sure that the "sausage" was bought in a store.
chicken breast - 1.5 kg;
small onion - 1 pc;
ground dried garlic - to taste;
gelatin - by eye;
spices to taste
I don’t remember exactly how many pieces it turned out. Because in the process I added some more meat and spices. But in general, it took 1.5 kg of breasts
I cut them as it seemed to me not large, but I think that next time I will make them even smaller 2 times for sure!
took a small onion for taste
chopped it medium
I didn't want to bother with garlic, so I took a ready-made one, although I think fresh is perfect.
I didn't bother much with seasonings. This seasoning came as a gift with a baking sleeve, I used the sleeve, but the spices remained. And they went into action!
Now, to be honest, next time I will take another gelatin, and pour more, from the heart. Maybe, of course, this gelatin is good and I just poured a little. But in general, he participated in the preparation of yummy)
I mixed everything in an enamel saucepan, everything that was mixed.
And HERE is my queen of the fields - redmond ham maker! Finally it was time for her to work, I have been waiting for so long.
I bought the simplest baking bags in the store. You can also use the sleeve, I wanted to take it. But it was not available, I took these - also good. There are clips inside with the bags. Comfortable.
Oh yes, I skipped a couple of steps in the photo, but I will explain in the text. I collected the redmond ham in this way - I put the bottom (top and bottom are the same) and then I put in a baking bag, very plump so that I could fill it with meat more and tamp it well. Having put the blank in the redmond ham maker, I realized, yeah - I didn't do much and ran to cut all the ingredients. I took out the main part and with the second run I already reported it to the top with a piece for ham
I sealed the remaining edge of the baking bag with a special clip that went to it in the package. I made 3 holes in the bag so that the excess pressure would come out and the springs of the redmond ham maker could properly compress the product.
look at what level the springs and the top lid are, then compare with a ready-made and not open ham maker.
loading! The water must be above the level of the redmond ham, and on the bottom of my multicooker of the redmond rmc 380 pressure cooker I put parchment for baking, there are also silicone mats, I think I will buy more over time!)
The programs set the stewing-jellied pressure cooker mode for 1 hour (in the photo, just 5 minutes have already passed, I forgot to take a picture) With a pressure of 70.
The only moment. The ham is not cooked for 1 hour, but in fact the whole time is about 2 hours, why? Injection in a pressure cooker is about 15-20 minutes, and the pressure release is also about 10 minutes. Well then, not two, but one and a half. Still, it's not so long) I downloaded it and do whatever you want, but it cooks for itself there)))
An hour of cooking has passed, letting off steam.
The springs were deflated.
That's how much it settled.
Without taking it out of the bag, but taking it out of the ham, I put it on the window to cool down, and then in the refrigerator overnight, in general, 3 hours in the refrigerator will be enough until it cools completely.
In the morning it looked like this on film!
but like that without a film!
and the drum roll, I decided to cut it.
And it all fell apart! But these are pieces of heavenly taste. I treated all my friends, everyone is delighted. From all this, we draw 2 conclusions.
1st Add more gelatin
2nd try the recipe where eggs are added for viscosity.
Today I am happy and eat my own ham, personal, homemade.
I'll go and crush myself on a sandwich and eat)) Bon appetit !!
