meat to the bull thermomix

We are referring to the oxtail which, when prepared in stew, certainly makes us doubt if this is not one of the best meat dishes that you can get to taste in life. At least that is my case.

Back then, when the bullfight in the «Plaza de la Corredera» was over. The «chindas» or «tripalleras» (as they called the daughters or widows of the old bullfighters) sold the tails of the bulls on tables painted green, to separate them from other offal (giblets) and the rest of the bullfighting lean meat.

The tail, as we all know, is the part that corresponds to the tail of the animal and is separated at the level of the second and third coccygeal vertebrae. Because of its tenderness within the bovine carcass, it is included among the less valuable cuts, which ironically are the ones that provide the most flavor.

Tails are generally cut into vertebrae sections, which are (according to the age and size of the animal) between 3 and 4 centimeters long. The vertebrae of the tips have little meat and are not an ingredient of interest for the dish; therefore, it is advisable to ask the butcher not to include them when purchasing this cut.

The name of this dish is curious, isn’t it? it caught my attention, I read the ingredients and I said to myself… I have to try this delicious meat! I have to try this delicious meat! Well, I told him about it at the time. The bull is a reference to the spiciness, as Javi explains, and you will know by now that I don’t like spicy, so I replaced the snail spices with a mixture of spices without spice, the rest is exactly the same, a very easy and tasty recipe!

Thank you very much Javi! I take you at your word and I will continue to cook many more of the recipes you make in your magnificent kitchen. There are a good bunch of them that I have my eye on,…Time : about 2 hoursDifficulty : minimalProcendecia : Javi – JaviRecetas

meat in sauce

Pork is very tasty and above all varied, there are cuts to suit all tastes and pockets, although it is generally an economical meat. Among these most popular parts is lean pork, which stands out for having very little fat and, with a long and correct cooking, it is very tender and is a delicious snack.

There are also delicious pork cheeks in red wine, the famous oxtail Cordovan style, which is actually prepared with veal tail, Rioja-style potatoes with chorizo, pig’s trotters in sauce or the traditional gazpacho manchego. We could continue with great dishes such as veal and mushroom fricandó, a delicious traditional Catalan recipe, veal osso buco a la milanesa with gremolata and risotto, delicious veal cheeks in sauce with creamy polenta garnish or, similar to this recipe but prepared in a different way, the classic meatballs with homemade tomato sauce and sautéed potatoes.

Well, it can be served as a tapa, portion or as a main dish as I have done on this occasion, with a side dish of baked potatoes, although with some good slices of bread it is also very enjoyable. If there are any leftovers, it will keep in the fridge for 2-3 days and can be frozen without any problem.
