When the Hurka sausage is cooked professionally, someone always declares that he only wants "a little bit". Crispy skin, juicy inside, zero loop explosion. The baking tray is not a crime scene if you handle the heat wisely. This is usually done immediately before the second, smaller dose.
Thorough preparation
- Preparation: prepare all the ingredients and tools, read the steps, then measure the ingredients. This way, you don't have to rush while cooking, and it's easier to find the right consistency.
- Put the loop and sausage in a greased baking tray, gently stab the loop in one or two places. Work with a preheated oven and check color, smell and texture towards the end of the time, because ovens perform differently.
- Put potatoes and onions on the side, pour a little water under them. Go slowly and check the texture, aroma and balance of flavors before each subsequent operation.
- Bake at 160 °C for 35 minutes, then turn carefully. Work with a preheated oven and check color, smell and texture towards the end of the time, because ovens perform differently.
- Raise the heat to 200 °C and fry until crispy in 15-20 minutes. Work at medium heat, stir occasionally and allow time for the aroma and color of the ingredients to develop nicely.
- Finishing and serving: let the food settle for a few minutes, if its character allows. Taste it, adjust the seasoning, and then serve it at the right temperature for the food.
Practical tips and common mistakes
- Do not prick the brain: one or two needle pricks and a little water are enough; start the cold loop from a colder oven.
- The pieces of meat should be similar in size, so they are cooked at the same time and none of the parts dry out.
- Allow the finished meat to rest briefly before serving; the juicier texture is worth the few minutes of waiting.
- Only cool the leftovers and put them in the fridge, covered, and reheat them according to the nature of the food before consumption.
