This long, low-temperature roast breaks down fat, muscle and cartilage, resulting in tender meat that falls from the bone and a thick pan sauce. Don’t be tempted to crank up the heat to speed things along, says Stephen Stryjewski, chef and owner of Cochon restaurant in New Orleans. “It won’t just be chewy, but it will also be tough because it is all dry on the outside,’’ he says. The same approach also can be used with steak tips, pork or lamb shoulder, lamb shanks and brisket, one of the most popular roasts during holidays. The cooking temperature is about the same, but timing will vary by the size of the cut. The marinade

This step is optional, but bathing the meat in a tasty solution of salt, acid and spice helps begin the cook- ing process by breaking down muscle enzymes that make the meat tough while also infusing it with flavor. This can be as simple as a brine of salt, water and sugar; a more trendy mari- nade of coffee and onions; a classic mix of red wine, leeks, salt and pepper; or a sweet, salty, spicy mix of soy sauce, brown sugar and Sichuan peppercorns. “You want to marinate the meat from two to 24 hours using a marinade that has an acid in it with a food enzyme like an apri- cot,’’ Steel says. “After 24 hours, the acids and the enzymes in the marinade break down the meat too much and make the meat mushy.’’ Food 4 Wednesday, December 16, 2009 OBITUARIES/FOOD Times-News, Twin Falls, Idaho Eva H.
