INSTEAD OF MOUNTAIN
Bora angry today. I had to go to the mountains, but the case of my life I have held this city in the Arctic still blanketed by snow yesterday.
Thus, an unusually short post: the chicken salad Cecchi.
It 's a recipe, yes. But one particular recipe, with the scent of ginger and slow, which has now given birth to my day.
So, off we go. It 's a simple dish, and then go well the less valuable chicken, even those that supermarkets, in dark times of recession, put on sale more often. To save money, the fins would be ideal, but shelled in his hands like eels when trying to remove their skin, which would make the broth too fat. We say Thigh or thighs, which are quieter and allow themselves to undress. Enough for four three or four pieces, and peel oils. I put the chicken to boil with a bay leaf, celery and onion. Besides I boil two large potatoes, two carrots, peeled and firming two eggs. In a bowl put stoned black olives (I like the Greek kalamata) and some pickled caper. You can add a little 'tuna in olive oil (just a box of 80 gr), but it is better not to mess and simplify the ingredients to give way to flavors. When
chicken, vegetables and eggs are cooked, should be reduced to the first strips, cubes, and the second and washers. Mix well together and season with salt and olive oil and a good grating of fresh ginger, which gives an exotic touch to this simple salad. Then dilute a tablespoon of mayonnaise (also good for the industrial purpose) with yoghurt and a few tablespoons of chicken broth, making it more fluid and reduces the intake of fat.
Moral of the story: a second very pleasant for a total of four people that costs less than five Euros, including a first based on chicken broth, in which a cook stracciatella or any other topping of your choice, perfect for the moments in which the resources now running out.
