Chapter 692: .Sunset Ham (First Shot)

The influence of professional competitions is by no means comparable to amateur competitions. Oakley simply defeated opponents without being bullish. This result caused sports uproar.
Defeating your opponent and your three-boxing opponent are completely different. The reaction in the New Zealand sports world is even more intense, because Oakley is now a local boxer.
Oakley was dual nationality. At the time, he was in a very embarrassing situation. When he came to New Zealand to apply for benefits, he applied for immigration, but he did not renounce US nationality.
Regardless of New Zealand, it is not easy for a small country to produce a sports star in the boxing world, so he caught Oakley for a while of propaganda, and the sunset town also appeared on the headlines.
There is even better news: New Zealand's spring is coming, China is just a hot summer day, and the tourist route opened by Chen Luoxian has been used. The first batch of tourists will arrive in New Zealand in a week.
Sunset Town is not the first stop to welcome Chinese tourists, but it is the most important one. Because of the promotion of the tourist agency, Wang Bo, the Chinese town mayor and his Chinese-style town, are very popular in China.
It was all right on the weekend. Wang Bo saw a pile of pig legs hanging in the icehouse, and immediately brought two to the castle.
When he saw his pork leg, the young president who took a rest on the weekend came to help and asked, "Boss, do you want to roast pork leg?"
He is a native of the country, and everyone sees Wang Bo as the leader, and so is it.
Wang Bo laughed: "No, Boss decided to make ham, don't you and your dad both like to eat ham?"
"My dad's mouth is very tight. He only likes Iberian ham. But I know that the ham you make is definitely better than this!"
Wang Bo laughed: "You really speak, boy, but you're right, the boss will make a lot of ham, come on, let's move."
In fact, his hometown also has a ham method, called smoked ham, which uses smoked fish. It has rarely appeared in recent years, because households are no longer short of meat, and they no longer need to live as tightly as before.
Smoked ham is for better preservation. Now every family also has a refrigerator. It is also not necessary to smoke the hind legs of the pig to extend the shelf life. After all, the smoked things are always unhealthy.
He decided to give it a try this time, making a smoked ham and also a western-style ham. As for the practice, he has seen countless tutorials online.
The focus of smoked ham is on smoke. He deliberately cut a pine tree and smoked it with pine wood. The aroma of pine smoke is the best.
Although the breeds of ranch pigs are very diverse, many of them are ordinary hogs, but because they live freely, and sometimes they are troubled by cattle, sheep, and alpaca. They have a large amount of exercise, so they have low fat content, which is very suitable for ham.
The hind legs of the two pigs brought by Wang Bo are only half-finger thick, that is, less than eight millimeters thick. If they are sun-dried, they are estimated to be five or six millimeters.
Because of free-range breeding, there is no requirement for the pig's slaughter weight, and the size is different. The two he picked were medium-sized, about fourteen or five kilograms.
Smoked ham needs to be aired in advance. This is no problem. Both hams have been hanging in the ice store for a long time and have not been sold. The pork in the town is not sold well.
For better preservation, after removing these pig legs, the blood stains were washed off with saline, and the fur was still intact.
Uncle Bing, who had nothing to do, and others helped, Wang Uncle had a knife in my hand, and shaved off the hairs outside the leg of the pig, exposing the black-skinned pigskin below.
"A little disgusting." Uncle Bing hesitated.
Wang Bohaha laughed: "Have you not plucked the pigs? This is because the roots of the pigs are black, so they are black. In fact, the color of these pigskins is white and pink!"
But after soaking it in hot water, he pulled out the roots of the pigskin, which was still black.
Pharaoh was a little embarrassed. He quickly called his family and asked his father, "Our black pig, is the pig's skin black?"
Bo Da said: "What a joke, the hair is black, of course, the pigskin is white! Black pigskin, that's broken pigskin!"
But these two pig legs are certainly not bad. Pharaoh can guarantee that the pigs that have just been slaughtered will be stored in the ice store. Moreover, the two pig legs will have the same black time, and they will not always be bad. Dropped it?
Pharaoh could only sullen his head with suspicion, pull out the hair roots, and scrape off the fat from the pig's skin.
A lot of fat and connective tissue are attached to the sarcolemma and pelvis of the leg of the pig. This must also be removed. He then removes the excess fat and minced meat attached to the muscle from left to right. After the cut surface is smooth, the leg of the pig is very attractive. it is good.
"Is it because these pigs have changed their skin color on the pasture?" Wang Bo looked up at the sun in confusion, "Is there a reason for too much sunshine?"
Anyway, the taste of pork leg is no problem, it is a pure pork taste, and there is no fishy smell. It is impossible to say that this is broken.
In this case, he had to continue to do it, no matter how to deal with clean pig legs, after processing, start the next step.
In this next step, two kinds of ham are used.
Western-style ham requires saline injection. Wang Bo sees the formula. The injection is not a simple brine, but a pickling solution with complex ingredients, mainly salt, nitrite, sugar, citric acid, sodium ascorbate, nicotinamide, and phosphate. And so on, there are other additives.
This castle is not there. Fortunately, the New Zealanders are too lazy. This pickling liquid has ingredients in the supermarket and you can buy it and add water to soak it yourself.
Wang Bo used spiritual spring water, which is enough.
The pickling solution had to be poured into the ham. He was helpless scratching his head. How could dead meat be filled with water?
It turned out that it could really be injected, but it had to be pushed slowly, because the pork leg was a bit fired after it was sun-dried.
While injecting, he asked the watching Eva to take a few pictures of himself on the front and side, and then sent it to the circle of friends: Lao Tzu became a black-hearted meat dealer, and the water-filled pork was sold to adults / revenge!
This process is not called water injection in the production of Western-style ham, but is called tenderization. There are other tenderization processes later. If you are afraid of trouble, you can tumble the barrel. After putting the ham in, the machine is kneading.
If you are not afraid of trouble, or an orthodox approach, you have to rub it manually.
Wang Bo looked around, Uncle Bing smiled and waved his hand: "Boss, I can't do this, I can't!"
"Call Aturu!"
He called Maori Han, who called out with a loud voice, "I'm massaging my daughter-in-law. Is there anything wrong? Don't delay me!"
"The head is making ham, will you come?"
"Hurry up! If you eat ham, remember to call me darling!" No need for Aturu to answer, his food wife is already in charge.
