Crispy Skin Secrets
For the perfect 'pururuca', ensure the skin is completely dry before frying or roasting. Pricking the skin multiple times can help release moisture and create a more even crackling.
Tender Meat Technique
Slow cooking is key to achieving tender meat. Simmer the eisbein in broth or water until it is falling off the bone.
Temperature Control
For the 'pururuca' stage, use high heat, but be careful not to burn the skin. Constant monitoring is necessary to achieve the desired crispiness.
