Hazırlanışı

Adım adım

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F).

    Yaklaşık 10 dk.

  2. 2

    Blanch the pork hocks by placing them in a large pot of boiling water for 10 minutes. This helps tenderize the skin and allows for easier scoring.

    Yaklaşık 10 dk.

  3. 3

    Remove the hocks from the water and pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels. Ensure the skin is very dry to achieve maximum crispiness.

    Yaklaşık 2 dk.

  4. 4

    If not already scored, use a sharp knife or razor blade to score the skin of the pork hocks in a diamond pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat.

    Yaklaşık 3 dk.

    Aşçının notu: Scoring allows fat to render out and helps the skin become super crispy.

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, caraway seed, and minced garlic.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

  6. 6

    Rub the seasoning mixture generously all over the pork hocks, making sure to get into the scored crevices.

    Yaklaşık 2 dk.

  7. 7

    Place the chopped yellow onion, carrot, and celery in the bottom of a large roasting pan.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

  8. 8

    Place the seasoned pork hocks on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan.

  9. 9

    Pour the dark beer and vegetable broth into the bottom of the roasting pan, around the hocks, but avoid pouring directly over the skin.

    Yaklaşık 1 dk.

  10. 10

    Roast for 2 hours, basting the hocks with the pan juices every 30 minutes.

    Yaklaşık 2 sa.

    Aşçının notu: Basting keeps the meat moist and flavorful.

  11. 11

    After 2 hours, increase the oven temperature to 200°C (400°F) and continue roasting for another 45-60 minutes, or until the skin is deeply golden brown and very crispy.

    Yaklaşık 1 sa.

    Aşçının notu: Keep a close eye on the skin during this final stage to prevent burning.

  12. 12

    Remove the Schweinshaxe from the oven and let them rest on a cutting board for 15 minutes before serving.

    Yaklaşık 15 dk.

    Aşçının notu: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender meat.

  13. 13

    Strain the pan juices into a small saucepan, pressing on the vegetables to extract all liquid. Discard the solids.

    Yaklaşık 2 dk.

  14. 14

    Simmer the strained pan juices over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, or until slightly reduced and thickened, to create a flavorful gravy.

    Yaklaşık 10 dk.

  15. 15

    Serve the crispy Schweinshaxe with the prepared gravy and traditional sides like sauerkraut or potato dumplings.
