Shmaltz (recipe) is a keto friendly food item with net carbohydrates of 0-1 per serving.
Recipe instructions
- Cut up the chicken fat into 1 inch chunks.
- Cut the skin into pieces, about the same size as the fat.
- Cut the onion into quarters, and then into slices.
- Do not mince the onion.
- In a heavy, preferably non-stick pot, place the chicken fat and the skin.
- Over a medium-high fire, let it cook until the fat has melted and the skin is beginning to get golden brown.
- Add the onion and the salt (you decide how much).
- Once you add the onions, don't leave the pot alone.
- Mix frequently to avoid sticking and buring.
- Keep cooking until the onions are a gorgeous golden brown color and the skin pieces are dark brown (but not black).
- The skin has now turned into something heavenly called gribenes.
- Remove the pot from the flame.
- Let cool and then strain the mixture into a glass or metal bowl.
- Pat the gribenes with a paper towel.
- You can now pour the cooled shmaltz into a jar and keep it indefinitely in the fridge or freezer.
- Keep the gribenes separate from the shmaltz in another jar.
- Your shmaltz is now ready to be used in matzo balls, kugels, chopped liver, and for frying.
-
Gribenes are best eaten in a sandwich with chopped liver, or sprinkled on the chopped liver as an edible garnish.
