How to cook kazylyk from horse meat at home

Types and names of horse sausage

Horse meat is used to prepare various sausages. This type of meat gives the product a special piquant taste, elasticity and many beneficial properties. It is unlikely that you will be able to find such sausage in ordinary stores; it can be purchased in markets in Central Asia. In addition, it is presented in specialized stores. Such products with numerous beneficial properties have many names among different nations:

Kazy is common in Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. It is considered to be a festive dish. As a rule, Tatars and Turks prepare it on special holidays or for weddings.
Makhan is a healthy dry-cured sausage made from horse meat and raw fat.
Kyzylyk is an ancient dish that has been beneficial since the times of the Bulgars. Its preparation complies with the strictest canons of Islam.
Sujuk is made in Azerbaijan and Turkey, and both Tatars and Arabs value its beneficial properties. It has another name - tutyrma. The cooking recipe has many features; it happens that lamb and beef are also added to it.

Kazy can be either smoked, dry-cured or boiled, it all depends on recipes and traditions, it will be equally useful and will not cause harm.

There is a special rule: sausages with beneficial properties must include only natural products (horse meat, fat, lard and intestines), this is what explains the benefits.

Important! To prepare horse sausage with the greatest benefit and best taste, you should take meat from fattened horses that have reached the age of 3 years: it has special properties.

Harm of horse sausage and contraindications

To prevent harm and obtain beneficial properties from horse sausage, it is important to purchase raw materials or finished products from trusted suppliers. Otherwise, there is a serious risk of parasite infection

You should definitely heat-treat the product before use; this will eliminate the risk of harm and will not reduce the benefits. We must not forget about moderation if you want to get the benefits of horse sausage. If abused, it can cause harm to the cardiovascular and skeletal systems, as well as the gastrointestinal tract. Horse sausage is contraindicated for patients with gout, since it is rich in purines; in such situations, more harm will be done to the body than the benefit received.

It is worth considering that horse meat itself is quite tough meat. And if you choose a product that is not of the highest quality for making kazy, cooking will not improve its texture, no matter how much you process the ingredient. For those who plan to prepare the delicacy themselves, the following recommendations may help:

The younger the horse, the more tender its meat. One-year-old foals are most valued in this regard, but an equally tasty product is obtained from 2-3 year old horses.
To distinguish the meat of a young horse from an adult one, you need to look at the fat. In foals it is almost white, sometimes with a pinkish tint. In older individuals it is slightly yellowish. If the horse is old, its fat will be yellow.
There are several ways to soften meat for kazy. Smoking or pre-marinating the main component gives a good result.

Traditionally, kazy is cooked in late autumn. It is by this time that horses have time to gain the necessary fat. If you want to preserve the product for a longer time, use the raw smoking or drying method.

The finished delicacy can be consumed as a cold appetizer, added to pilaf, beshbarmak and other dishes popular among Turkic peoples. In the classic version, it is simply sliced like sausage and served with onions pickled in vinegar.

Beef kazy recipe. 2 recipes / Boiled and dried horse meat kazylyk

Horse meat kazylyk or simply kazy is a traditional Turkic homemade sausage. Kazylyk is prepared in two ways - boiled or dried. Both options are considered a holiday dish. In addition, in the past, dried kazylyk from horse meat helped preserve the meat for good use. Since horse meat, like any dried meat, could be stored for a long time in a cool, dry place such as a barn or cellar. After preparation, dried kazy sausage was used both as an independent dish and as a meat base for many hot dishes. Today I’ll try to tell you how to cook homemade kazy sausage using both methods. In Tatar and Bashkir villages, after the slaughter of an animal, both versions of kazylyk are usually stuffed at once. Dried for future use, and boiled to be enjoyed in the near future. However, with the advent of refrigerators, preparations for boiled kazy can now be frozen and stored for a very long time.

My kazy recipes are very simple and accessible even to novice housewives. It just takes a little patience and accuracy.

1 recipe for kazy – boiled:

1.5 kg fatty horse meat (belly)

0.3 - 0.5 kg of fat (depending on the fat content of the meat)

1 horse or beef intestine or a special sleeve for stuffing sausages

1 - 1.5 tbsp. coarse salt

coarsely ground black pepper

3 - 4 cloves of garlic

Bay leaf

1 onion

How to cook kazylyk:

In order to prepare boiled kazylyk from horse meat, the meat is cut into long, wide ribbons up to 20 cm in length and about 5-6 cm in width or in fairly large pieces. I prefer ribbons. The fat is cut into large longitudinal pieces. According to the rules, fat should account for up to 30% of the total volume of sausage, but this one is strictly for everyone. My family likes thicker boiled kazy.
The meat and fat are thoroughly rubbed with chopped garlic, salt and pepper. Now they need to be placed in an enamel or plastic container, or in a bag. Cover the horse meat and keep it in the refrigerator for 12 – 20 hours.
The intestine must be intact and undamaged. It is washed under cold water, then turned inside out and carefully scraped out the mucus with a knife. Then the intestine must be thoroughly rinsed again in cold water. If you clean it in advance, then the intestine should be stored in a bag so that it does not dry out and remains elastic.
We tie the prepared quiche on one side with a thick canvas thread. If instead of intestine you have a sleeve for stuffing sausages, then you will need to soak it according to the instructions on the package, then tie it up too.
After marinating the filling, the intestine is evenly stuffed with pieces of meat. The fat is usually pushed along the strips of meat, on one side.
Once filled, the intestine is tied at the end. The finished kazy stick can have a length from 20 to 40 cm and is stored in the freezer.
Now directly about how to cook kazylyk. The sausage is filled with warm water and placed on low heat. After boiling, the intestine is pierced with a needle in 3-4 places. Add the peeled onion and bay leaf to the water. Cook the kazy without a lid, over low heat, for about 1.5-2 hours (depending on thickness and length).
The finished sausage is taken out of the pan, cooled and only then cut. Otherwise it will leak. Traditionally, kazylyk is served well chilled, but sometimes warm. This is what you like.

How to cook horse meat sujuk

Grind the meat and fat through a meat grinder (or chop finely with a knife). You can grind half the meat through a large grill, and half through a fine one.

Grind all the spices, mix them with salt and sugar.

Add spices to the meat.

Add wine, stir and put in the refrigerator for 12 hours or a day. Instead of wine, you can add a spoon and a half of cognac or brandy.

Fill the pork casings with the infused minced meat.

And we form sausages as long as you like.

Hang the sausages by one end to dry in a cool, well-ventilated place.

How to prepare and boil a delicacy?

It is worth considering that in most cases, cooks themselves decide how much and what to take for a particular dish. But, if you take the basic recipe for preparing kazy, it looks like this:

We will need about 1 kg of horse meat (meat taken from the ribs), 500 g of horse fat, about 50 cm of horse small intestine, a head of garlic, a tablespoon of cumin, a teaspoon of ground black pepper, a bunch of dill and salt to taste.
Wash the meat thoroughly and dry it with towels, cut into bars (arbitrary or 2 cm wide and 7-8 cm long).
Peel the garlic, chop it using a press or chop it very finely with a sharp knife. Mix the component with the meat.
We cut the lard into arbitrary cubes and also add it to the meat. Sprinkle the resulting mixture with spices, mix thoroughly and leave to marinate. To do this, cover the mixture with a gauze cape and put it in the refrigerator for at least two days.
After the specified time, we begin manufacturing the semi-finished product. To do this, turn the intestines inside out and rinse thoroughly in salt water, changing the liquid several times. Be sure to remove a thin film from the surface of the products, rub the surface with salt, scrape it and rinse it several more times.

We turn the intestines back inside out and tie one end, 2-3 cm from the edge, with nylon thread. We fill the intestine with the marinated mixture through the other end, compact it well and tie it on the other side.
Place the workpiece in a wide pan or basin, so that it fits completely into the container. Fill with plenty of water and bring the mixture to a boil. Then we put dill sprigs in the water, and pierce the sausage in several places (it will cook better and will not burst). You need to cook the product for at least 2-2.5 hours over low heat, skimming off the foam regularly.

Usually, each housewife uses her own set of spices and seasonings intended for preparing kazy. But the classical approach generally requires cooking sausage not just from meat, but from a whole horse rib, then the product takes on the appearance of a curved stick. Some prefer a product without any fat at all, made only of meat and spices. Over the centuries-old history of this delicious dish, many variants of its preparation have appeared, and everyone can choose the one they like the most.

How to cook kazy

Another popular horse meat dish is kazy. A piece of kazy, cooked correctly, literally melts in your mouth! What is the difference between kazy and shuzhuk? In the method of preparation. In the authentic recipe for kazy, horse rib meat and loin fillet are chosen, since there is more fat there. These pieces were seasoned with spices, and then the intestines were filled with them, without cutting them. The result was a round sausage. In modern cuisine, ribs are removed, but fillet pieces for kazy are not cut into small pieces

Meat for kazy is selected especially carefully, because not a single toy (holiday) is complete without this delicacy and it is important not to lose face in front of the guests. For this reason, cooking kazy is trusted only to experienced housewives.

“I already have regular clients who regularly request kazy, call in advance and ask to prepare as much as they need,” says Suga. – Some people want more meat in the kazy, others like the predominance of fat, but according to the classic recipe, the ratio should be approximately 70/30. I cut good ripe meat from the horse’s rib into strips, marinate it for a day in a cold place with salt, garlic and pepper, and then carefully fill the intestine with it.”

Recipe:

0.5 kg horse fat;
1 kg of horse meat;
10 medium cloves of garlic;
0.5 m horse or beef intestine;
salt, ground pepper - to taste.

Boil kazy, like shuzhuk, for about 2.5 hours, piercing the intestine in several places with a toothpick. To prevent the delicacy from darkening, it is recommended to cool it directly in the broth. The salty taste of horse meat, seasoned with pepper and garlic, cannot be compared with any store-bought sausage!

Composition of horse meat

The composition of horse meat is amazing in the amount of microelements and vitamins; it is especially rich in iron and vitamin A. According to some scientists, eating horse meat helps neutralize the effects of radiation and other harmful environmental factors on human health. Even the ancient nomads were convinced of the positive properties of horse meat, even claiming that it improved potency.

Horse fat, although unpleasant to the taste, has medicinal properties and is used in cosmetics, medicines for respiratory diseases and healing ointments, in particular for burns or frostbite. Horse meat is recommended for consumption by people who have had hepatitis (jaundice) or other liver diseases.

Hypoallergenic horse meat also contains vitamins E and B, which help improve blood circulation, and due to the huge amount of iron it is very useful for people suffering from anemia. However, despite the huge number of positive aspects, horse meat is still not as popular as other meats. Why? Let's figure it out now.

What are the benefits and harms of such sausages?

Due to its beneficial properties, horse meat is eaten as part of the diet - this meat allows you to improve your health and lose extra pounds. The organic acids contained in sausage help improve the functioning of the digestive system. While other sausages are difficult to digest, horse varieties, on the contrary, are considered light food.

Against the background of the advantages, it is also worth noting the disadvantages - high calorie content and compliance with the rules for strict storage of meat. If they are broken, there may be problems with the quality of the product, so you should not buy it from dubious places.

Sausages made from horse meat (kazy, makhan, kyzylyk, sudzhuk) attract with a gourmet taste that cannot be compared with anything else.

for horse sausage (especially dry-cured varieties), the meat is trimmed exclusively to the highest grade - only pure meat and fat are used, without veins and connective tissues;
When ripening meat for horse sausages, no ripening accelerators are used;
unlike other types of meat, horse meat for sausages in salting and spices matures for at least 40 days;
cutting meat into horse sausages (with the exception of boiled varieties) is done only by hand.
