Receta Old Country Pickled Chicken Roll
This recipe is a slight adaptation from a recipe I saw in Saveur magazine issue number 137. I immediately fell in love with the rustic hand on approach to procuring a deli meat of sorts by self asembly and a little 'elbow grease'. I deviated from the recipe by simmering the chicken roll in a tumeric and onion combination with a hint of red pepper flakes to infuse the skin with addition flavor qualities. I also added dry mustard to the chicken to soften the edges and offer a little 'twang' for dexterity. The chicken I used was a bit off weight wise from the original recipe so I simply added a boneless skinless chicken breast to the mix and secured the roll using cheesecloth. The roll turned out amazing and my family wants me to prepare another one soon. Thank You Gabriella Gershenson for sharing your grandfather's wonderful work of art. I'm now thinking of what other combinations I can create and share, the way you did with the world!
