The secret to keeping chicken fresh and tasty, without altering its flavor by storing it in cold environments such as the refrigerator, is the following. Get some chicken legs from a butcher or supermarket and wash the meat well.
Once this step is finished, equip yourself with absorbent paper and let the chicken legs lose excess water. Take a large bowl. Now you will need salt (for 4 kg of poultry you need four teaspoons of this ingredient), which you will begin to sprinkle on the legs.
Add a little black pepper and 4 tablespoons of vinegar and, if you prefer, a pinch of paprika. Mix everything with your hands. In the meantime, take four onions, which you will cut into thin strips, and a bunch of parsley, which you will chop finely.
At this point combine the two ingredients. In the meantime, take a clean and dry glass jar, preferably with a capacity of one liter, and start placing chopped onion and parsley inside. Then, add the previously prepared chicken thighs .
Once you have done this and placed the legs in the glass jars (as many as you deem necessary), close them hermetically with their lids. At this point, take a rather large pot with a cloth or a piece of cloth on the bottom and place the cans of chicken in it.
Fill the pot with water until it covers the jar and place it on the heat to bring the water to the boil. Simmer for 5-6 hours and let cool. Et voilà, everything is ready.
You will see that a gelatinous meat broth will be created in your jars , which will allow you to keep the chicken out of the refrigerator for up to 12 months . Did you know this technique? It is one of the most used by chefs to avoid waste in the kitchen.
So, as you can see, with a few simple steps, you can not only save money but also have a lot of money at your disposal.
