Gala (or Ptcha) is an Eastern European delicacy of jellied calf's bone. Love it or hate it, Gala is a classic. You can find the bones from your local butcher. I'm using flanken but you can add lamb to this as well. Some salt, garlic, onion and slow cooking will make this a meal you'll never forget. ✅ Full Recipe: https://www.kosher.com/recipe/flanken-gala-ptcha-13733

hello my name is jesse weiss today i
want to prepare for you something that
not too many people on youtube ever
prepared it's not very appetizing it's
not so much fun but it's delicious if
you like it you love it if you don't
like it
first thing you put on gloves i'm not
sure exactly how many bones are going to
fit into this pot right now that's one
go to your local butcher just asking for
some knee bones that's two this is three
you can put them in frozen that's four
okay so this is six basically around six
bones just about to the top i'm gonna
add a little flanking to this you can
add lamb to this if you wanna have a
little bit of lamb
flavor in your gala you wanna add a
little bit of salt
i'm gonna add my garlic and a cloth
and my onion i'm gonna let this cook
overnight so tomorrow
when this is all done i'm just
schlep it out and it's done
you want to add water you want your
water
just about till the top you cover it
it doesn't have to be covered fully
you want to have it on a low flame and
that's all you have to do right here
after that is when you have to make the
whole mess and the whole packa and i'll
show you in a minute exactly how to do
that
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
shabbos
we prepared the gala we let it cook all
night
and we are going to have fun i'm going
to try to strain all this stuff and take
a little bit out
now i'm going to start straining i want
the liquid and i want all the meat and
the that comes off the bone just so
you know gala is not fat the fat's gonna
be on the top i'm gonna take it off once
it's done
oops i made a mess
so all i'm gonna try to do i'm gonna get
the bones into the garbage whatever i
can save off the bones that i can chop
up and i can put it into the gala
[Music]
makaya
okay here we go all this stuff i'm gonna
put on the cutting board let me move the
butt right
[Music]
i should here you what's going on all
these bones
ganging around the garbage
size oh it's hot
[Music]
yes it's a mess
that's why i'm making a recipe a very
large recipe so you can put away
you can probably make around 15
containers out of this recipe you don't
want to do this every single week it
freezes very well all you have to do is
melt it down
[Music]
some of us would call that liquid gold
if you want to make a beautiful
delicious broth you can do that too
and we make a ramen ball in the
restaurant and snaps
the way we make the ramen fobo we make
it with broth
from knee bones it's very hot very very
hard got to be very careful
[Music]
a little bit of fat is good
everything is going to come off very
easily once you cook it overnight just
you don't want any bones in your gallon
first thing is go for the gloves
and second thing is
listen i don't like gala so
on the next step if anybody wants to
know why the cdc says you still need
masks
that's why
let's start chopping up your meat
or whatever that is
the
you're gonna top it up nicely and then
you're gonna put it right back into your
broth okay the joke is over i can take
it off already
it's a stinger fair look hold on
[Music]
all right this goes right back in here
all i want to do is bring this back to a
boil i'm going to add some fresh garlic
put on fresh gloves we have some fresh
garlic right here and we're going to
chop this up
i like to add a little bit of olive oil
so my garlic doesn't fly all over the
place if you try to wake up your kids in
the morning and they don't want to wake
up
a lot of garlic and you put the garlic
in
at the end
that's going to give your
color a nice garlicky taste after that
i'm just gonna add my spices
i put salt already before i put that
last night
black pepper
a little cayenne not too much
a little smoked paprika
boom
all we're gonna do
is bring this to a little boil
the minute it starts boiling
i shut the fire and you can put it into
any mold you like
i actually once went to a simcoe however
they made the gala they made it in a
huge pot they flipped it over and they
had like a carving board
of gala you can do that too you can do
whatever you like so once that comes to
a boil i'm done you pack it away
honestly some people call this gala some
people call this galareta some people
call it picha

know if you came from russia from poland
from this from here

soft you can put it in little shot
glasses

many things you can do with gala but
there is a little fat on the top so what
