Shashlik

13221667_1322757261085745_551330728024344956_n

Hello, today i bring to blog this new recipe thats is delicious and just rigth for the summer. Shashlik (Шашлык) is a type of shish kebab commonly found in Russia and the former Soviet republics. It was likely brought to Moscow from Central Asia in the 19th century. Today, it’s a popular summer food cooked over an open fire at social gatherings. It’s traditionally prepared with lamb,chicken, pork, and beef variations are becoming increasingly prominent. With summer in full swing throughout the country right now, I thought it would be a great time to share this tasty dish.Shashlik prepare by lithuanian people they use mayo or greek yoghurt and i did with mayo.

Ingredients:

10 Lbs Pork Shoulder
3 Cups Pomegranate Juice
3 Cups Sparkling Water
2 Onions, Sliced
1 Tbsp Salt
1 Tbsp Pepper
1 Bottle (30oz) Mayonnaise
1 Tbsp Chili Powder
2 Tsp Oregano
2 Tsp Thyme
1 Tsp Salt
1 Tsp Black Pepper
1 Tsp Cayenne

Unwrap and wash the pork shoulder.
Begin cutting it into 1.5” strips, following the grain of the muscle whenever possible.
Remove the bone as you cut.
Continue to cut the meat into cubes that are roughly 1.5” on a side.
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl.
Add a single layer of pork to a large pot (at least a 2 gallon pot).
Add a layer of onions and some of the sauce.
Continue adding layers of meat and onions until all of the meat is in the pot.
Allow to marinade for at least 12 hours before cooking.
Traditionally, the shashlik are cooked on a small grill called a mangal (мангал) with large metal skewers that are wide and flat so as to prevent the meat from twisting. Of course, if you don’t have any of these, more “American” shish kebob skewers and a charcoal
or gas grill would work nearly as well.
Skewer similarly sized pieces of pork on skewers, periodically wrapping some of the sliced onions between pieces of meat.
Grill slowly until fully cooked. You could check the internal temperature of some of the pieces (145 degrees), but the easiest way is to just check for firmness of the pieces and then cut one open.You want the meat to be mostly grayish, but a little gray pink is ok.
As you remove the shashlik from the grill,
remove them from the skewers and place them in a bowl.
Enjoy them the Russian way by eating with your fingers!
No forks allowed.

Destination Beach Travel#1

Well good wheater is coming and the days to seat down in house , finish!!! I leave i bit from Nortern Ireland it is small paradise far away … I hope you like and enjoy , same way family W. did.Newcastle is a small town in County Down, Northern Ireland. It had a population of 7,444 in the 2001 Census. The seaside resort lies on the Irish Sea coast at the base of Slieve Donard, one of the Mourne Mountains, and is known for its sandy beach and the Royal County Down Golf Club. The town lies within the Down District Council area.The town aims to promote itself as the “activity resort” for Northern Ireland and its most special attribute is its location at the foot of Slieve Donard. The town has benefited from a multi million upgrade which makes it a high quality seaside attraction. The town is twinned with New Ross, County Wexford, in the Republic of Ireland.13178705_1314306728597465_6848516896293068711_n

The name of the town is thought to derive from the castle built by Felix Magennis of the Magennis clan in 1588, which stood at the mouth of the Shimna River. This castle was demolished in 1830.[4][5] The town is referred to as New Castle in the Annals of the Four Masters in 1433 so it is likely that he built on the site of an existing structure.[6][7][8]

13138848_1314306651930806_4971923187263041245_n

In the 17th century Ulster ports began to rise in prominence. In 1625 William Pitt was appointed as Customer of the ports of Newcastle, Dundrum, Killough, Portaferry, Donaghadee, Bangor and Holywood.[9] The Montgomery Manuscripts record that Newcastle was besieged and later captured by Sir James Montgomery of the Ards in April 1642 in the aftermath of the 1641 Rebellion (pp.128-134). Prior to 1641 the Castle belonged to the Magennis’, but after the rebellion the property was confiscated and granted to Robert Hawkins, great grandfather to Robert Hawkins who assumed the surname of Magill.

13151408_1314306955264109_6584157644967441281_n

The date 1588 was inscribed on a stone placed over the front entrance of the Castle, built by Felix Magenis. Newcastle passed from the Magills to the Mathews, and subsequently to the Annesleys. In the late 1700s the Castle was modernised by the Matthews and then the Annesleys, and rented by the Board of Customs for the accommodation of revenue officers. Around 1830 the castle was demolished and the ‘Annesley Arms Hotel’ was constructed within the original castle compound. The 3rd Earl Annesley built a new ‘marine residence’, called ‘Donard Lodge’ on the lower mountain slope above the town (it was demolished in 1966). St. John’s Church was also opened on ‘The Rock’ in 1832 to accommodate the visitors and growing population in Earl Annesley’s developing seaside resort.

13133121_1314306575264147_4879655189213865880_n

On 13 January 1843, boats from Newcastle and Annalong set out for the usual fishing stations, and were caught in a gale. 14 boats were lost in the heavy seas including a boat which had gone to the rescue. Only two boats survived, the Victoria and the Brothers.[10] 76 men perished, 46 of whom were from Newcastle. They left twenty seven widows, one hundred and eighteen children, and twenty one dependants. A Public Subscription was raised and the cottages, known as Widows Row, were built for the widows and dependants. A local song about the disaster says “Newcastle town is one long street entirely stripped of men”

13062069_1314307545264050_4812084165075033595_n

The town’s history is poorly recorded and is held mostly by local people and their stories of the past. Information on the town is available on signs throughout the forests and hills. The Mourne Mountains is the setting for many local myths and legends. There are stories of ‘The Blue Lady’, a woman abandoned by her husband whose ghost still haunts the mountains, and more recently the idea of a wild cat living in the Mournes. Many of the stories although have true origins are only folklore and give many of the towns attractions their names, such as Maggie’s Leap being named after a local girl called Maggie, who leapt over the impressive chasm to her death while fleeing soldiers with a basket of eggs. Many other places in the Newcastle area get their names from other sources, ‘The Brandy Pad’, a path through the mountains, is named so because of the illegal brandy smuggling that took place through the area. Another example is Bogey Hill just above the harbour at the Southern end of the town, which is named after the carts that carried Mourne granite from the quarry on Thomas’ Mountain down to the harbour. In 1897, T.R.H the Duke and Duchess of York (George V and Queen Mary), grandparents to Elizabeth II, visited Newcastle to open the Slieve Donard Hotel. Afterwards they visited Hugh Annesley, 5th Earl Annesley at Castlewellan Castle.

A process of preserving the local history has begun since 2014 via a community facebook page ‘History of Newcastle, Co. Down’. Photographs and information on the area’s history are being collected via the page, and a history of the town will be published. Greater historical detail about the town will be added to this page as part of this research process. It is hoped that this collective history will enhance the experience of both locals and tourists by promoting an informed historical appreciation for the area.

Newcastle was fortunate enough to escape the worst of the Troubles and its residents both Catholic and Protestant lived in relative peace with each other though there has been considerable objection to loyalist band parades in the town.[11]

13082643_1308743382487133_6943365054723275817_n

Preheat oven to 150 ° C / 300 ° F / Gas 2. Place your egg whites in a clean bowl and beat at medium speed until they begin to form nice stiff peaks.

With your mixer still running, gradually add the sugar and a pinch of salt. Turn the mixer to the highest setting and beat for 7-8 minutes, until the meringue is white, bright and smooth. If it feels grainy, beat for a while, taking care not to let the meringue collapse.

Use two trays with parchment paper, a large one and another 20cm circle shape.
One half of meringue, using pastry bag with star tip  12 rosetes and put in the oven tray and shape at the same time.

The rosetes take 40 minutes at 150 ° C / 300 ° F / gas 2. The base takes the form 1 hour at 150 ° C / 300 ° F / 2 gas.
Until the meringues and rosetes stay with slightly golden appearance and are soft in the middle.

To assemble the pavlova, wash all fruit, cut fruit all .Reserve.

For whipped cream whip the cream with vanilla extract and sugar until fluffy whipped cream when you’re ready to throw pastry bag. Reserve.

To couli, pick a food processor put 2 tablespoons water, blackberry, pineapple, mornagos and relar everything until it forms like a hit. Once you’re ready to throw in another bag pasteleiro.Reserve.

To ild pavlova take merengue base on the center of plate, take pastry bag with whipped cream and start at the base of rosetes lie down to glue rosetes to the base, do the same process for the others, so used 7 rosetes.

After the pavlova is mounted, and all rosetes glued fill the medium with the rest of the whipped cream.
Until end the whipped cream. Arrange fruit on top to your liking, so finished, cut the tip of very thin coulis bag with scissors and decorate to your taste, I crossed from one end to another all pavlova.

I used clear glaze and fresh mint to give special touch.
