Jellied is a popular New Year's dish. Everyone has probably tried this delicious dish at least once in their life. However, not everyone tried to create such a transparent magical treat. Today we are preparing jellied beef legs.
- The main ingredient of jelly is veal or pork legs, or more precisely, their very lower part is the hooves. Only these components will give complete confidence that our dish will harden as it should.
- Other types of meat can be added as desired. These can be chicken parts with all skins and veins, beef, pork.
- The main thing is to maintain the ratio of products. For two veal legs you need to take the same amount of another type of meat by weight.
- The ratio of liquid and meat when cooking broth should be 1:1. This is a very important point. Pour in more water, the liquid will not have time to evaporate, which will not allow your favorite aspic to harden. A smaller amount of water will require additional addition of life-giving moisture, and this is also undesirable.
- To obtain a transparent, appetizing jellied meat, do not neglect to follow an important rule - be sure to drain the first broth. Thus, we will reduce the calorie content of the dish and achieve a chic aesthetic appearance.
- When cooking, we try to avoid strong boiling: the broth should simmer on a low burner for at least 6-7 hours.
- Add salt and seasoning mixture to the jelly correctly. Salt, pepper, add onions and carrots 1 hour before the end of cooking.
- The best place to freeze the aspic is in the refrigerator.
- Experienced housewives do not recommend immediately removing the top layer of fat on jellied meat; it is advisable to carry out this process just before serving.
- You can decorate the jellied meat with chopped carrots, peas, sprigs of herbs, and boiled eggs.
Classic recipe
Here is a recipe for jellied beef legs without adding gelatin. Veal will add tenderness and richness of flavor to the dish.

Preparation:
- You need to be very careful when processing beef meat and legs. The transparency of our jelly will depend on how we process such important ingredients. So let’s begin to thoroughly examine each step of how to prepare jellied beef legs.
- The beef should be poured with cold water and left to soak for 40-60 minutes. If possible, this time can be increased to 4-5 hours. And the meat will be cleaned, and the skin will become softer, which will only be a plus for preparing the dish. This way, the remaining blood from the meat will go away, and this will make our dish truly beautiful and tasty.
- It is recommended not to chop the beef legs, but to saw them using a hacksaw with large teeth to avoid small fragmented bones getting into the broth. Before cooking, the skin must be thoroughly cleaned with a knife.
- Place the pulp, cut into medium pieces, and prepared veal legs into a large container.
- Fill with clean cold water 6-8 cm above the level of the components.
- From the moment it boils, simmer over low heat for 7-10 minutes and drain the primary broth.
- Rinse the meat pieces under running water and place them again in a pan with clean liquid.
- Now you need to provide all the details of cooking the secondary broth for a clear, rich jellied meat.
- We try not to miss the moment of boiling. As soon as small bubbling bubbles begin to appear, remove the foam and fat with a slotted spoon.
- We set the stove to low and leave the meat broth to simmer for 3-4 hours. The liquid should not boil too much. The lid on the pan remains slightly open.
- Let's prepare the vegetables for the rich jelly. You can do a little trick to make the broth acquire a golden, warm hue.
- The peeled onion is cut in half, the flat cut is fried in a hot frying pan. Peel the carrots, rinse them and add them whole to the meat broth.
- Place the prepared vegetables into a container with boiling meat mixture.
- Bring the broth to a boil over high heat. Then we reduce the power of the stove and simmer the broth for the future jellied meat for another 3-4 hours.
- An hour before the end of cooking, add bay leaf and allspice. And only now can you add salt to the dish.
- Carefully remove the meat pieces from the rich broth.
- We begin to work with the cooled product. Separate the pulp from the veal legs. Cut the pulp into small pieces. Ideally, use your hands to tear the meat into small fibers.
- Pass the peeled garlic through a press and mix with the disassembled boiled meat.
- Place the meat pieces into beautiful deep pans in an even layer.
- Place the containers in the refrigerator and serve the already frozen jellied meat to the table.

Jellied meat can be made from beef, lamb, and pork. You should not neglect such ingredients as hooves, tail, head, veins and skins. These are ideal products that can improve the solidification of broth.
We looked at the classic recipe for making jellied meat. By the way, it is very convenient to cook jelly in a slow cooker with the addition of poultry and rabbit meat. All the main steps are indicated, now we’ll give another version of the recipe, where we’ll just play with the ingredients.

Kholodets is a traditional Russian dish of meat and frozen broth that we love to cook for the holidays. Especially during the cold season. For many, jellied meat is as important and obligatory a dish at the New Year's table as Olivier.

That's why there is such a wide variety of recipes. But the most important thing that unites them is that in most cases jellied meat is cooked without adding gelatin, but only on the basis of thick, rich broths of high concentration, which harden on their own. This is due to the fact that the broth is cooked from pieces of carcasses that have a large amount of cartilage tissue, which gives such properties to the broth. Usually legs, tails, and ears are used for jellied meat. Everything where there are bones, joints, cartilage and skin. In addition to its richness, such a broth will also have a special taste. But for the full bouquet and richness of the dish, meat is best suited, which is added during the cooking process and, unlike bones and joints, ends up in the finished dish.
If you want to make the jellied meat elegant and beautiful, then put beautifully chopped vegetables, olives, and green leaves in it. This is done before the broth is poured into the mold, so that when it hardens, all this elegant beauty remains inside.

Beef jellied meat prepared according to this recipe is a separate dish, in this case there is no need to add gelatin. The jelly will set on its own if you prepare it from the correct part of the animal carcass, for example, pig ears, tails or legs. For beef jellied meat, the most commonly used part of the leg is called the motolyga (motolyga). This is essentially a knee with a joint; it is the joint tissue that allows you to make a thick, well-hardened broth. After all, this is exactly what is needed for jellied meat. The taste of beef, of course, will be different from pork. The characteristic smell and taste of beef and veal will give jellied meat its own properties. The color of the jellied meat will also be darker, as happens with beef broth. In my example, I will show how to make jellied meat with meat ground in a meat grinder, but you can also make large pieces by cutting the meat with a knife or disassembling the pieces into fibers. Choose according to your taste.
Ingredients:
- beef motoski (part of a leg with a joint) - 1 kg;
- beef - 300-500 g;
- onions - 2 pcs;
- carrots - 1 piece;
- garlic - 1-3 cloves;
- peppercorns, salt - to taste.
Recipe:
1. Fill the meat with water, after boiling, drain the water. Fill with new water, add the peeled vegetables and cook the meat for 5 hours. Skim the foam when boiling, this will help keep the broth, and subsequently the jellied meat, transparent.
2. After an hour of cooking, remove the carrots and onions from the pan so that they do not overcook. Continue cooking the meat. When it is ready, take it out and separate the meat from the bones. Pass the boiled meat and garlic through a meat grinder.
3. Pour the strained broth over the chopped meat and mix, distributing evenly. Season to taste and add ground black pepper.
4. Cool the beef jellied meat, put it in the refrigerator until completely frozen. It is best to cover the container in which it will harden with a lid, or if there is none, then with cling film.

And for a beautiful holiday presentation, we’ll make beautiful flowers on the surface of the jellied meat made from boiled eggs and carrots. It’s nice to put such jellied meat on the festive table for the New Year and hear praise from all guests and household members.
Now you know how to prepare the most delicious jellied meat. In this matter, you do not need to have special culinary skills, the main thing is to have patience and time. Good luck with your culinary experiments!
Delicious beef and chicken jellied meat with delicate transparent jelly is not greasy, with a slight aroma of garlic. It is not necessary to add gelatin for it to freeze well.
- 1 kg beef
- 1 kg chicken (legs, breasts)
- 1 kg chicken feet and necks or 1 kg beef legs (butter)
- 1 onion, peeled (remove only the top layer)
- salt, garlic (to taste)
- bay leaf (about 5-7 leaves)
- peppercorns (about 20 peas)
- 2-3 liters of water
Jellied meat with gelatin, more like jellied meat. The jelly turns out to be too stiff, so I don’t add it, but cook the jellied meat using meat products, which during cooking add stickiness to the broth (natural gelatin). These are either sinewy beef legs with large oils, or chicken legs and necks, although the latter are a bit of a hassle. You can cook jellied meat from pork legs and tails, but it turns out fatty and looks more like brawn.
We wash the meat products well and soak them in cold water for several hours. If you are using beef legs, when purchasing, ask them to chop them into small pieces in order to fit them into a large pan as compactly as possible.
Wash the meat products again and fill with cold water. The water should only slightly cover the meat. Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. If necessary, remove the foam. Reduce the heat to low and leave the meat to cook for 6-7 hours (the broth should only gurgle slightly). An hour before the end of cooking, salt the broth, add the onion (remove only the top layer of husk and cut off the dried roots, rinse well), bay leaf and pepper. The onion skins give the broth a nice flavor.
At the end of cooking, the meat should be almost completely separated from the bones. If you drop a little broth on your fingers, you should feel sticky (if you squeeze your fingers, they “stick together”). If there is too much broth and not enough gluten, cook the jellied meat for another hour, but without a lid, slightly increasing the heat so that excess moisture evaporates. Turn off and let cool slightly to room temperature.
Remove the pieces of meat from the broth. The broth itself must be strained well. I put gauze in a large sieve (it needs to be rinsed very well), folded 2-3 times. Strain the broth into another pan. If you get any pieces of meat while straining, then also remove them and put them in a bowl with meat. Gently squeeze the gauze and its contents into the pan with the broth and then throw it away.
We prepare the forms in which the jellied meat will harden (we wash it and dry it well). Now you need to disassemble the meat. Separate the pulp from the bones, divide into small pieces and place on the bottom of the molds. It is necessary that chicken and beef meat be mixed. There should be no seeds left in the mold. Be careful. I don’t put films, cartilage and veins in jellied meat. If the jellied meat was cooked with the addition of chicken paws and necks, you need to sort the meat more carefully.
We taste the cooled broth, if there is not enough salt, then add some salt (hot broth always seems saltier than cold broth). Squeeze out 1-3 cloves of garlic (as you like). Mix well. Pour the broth into the molds with the meat using a ladle. Mix lightly with a spoon so that the meat is evenly distributed, and leave the molds on the table until they cool completely. Then we put it in the refrigerator. A good jellied meat will begin to solidify on the table.
Bon appetit!
