Pork Embutido

This is a pork embotido recipe that has quite a lot of ingredients. But I can assure you that this is a delicious, meaty and cheesy embotido that you must try. The cooking technique is also a little different form the usual embotido. Instead of steaming, it is boiled and cooked in a soup stock which will make it more flavorful and savory.

To cook this embutido: In a large casserole: sauté garlic and onion. Add vinegar, bay leaf, bouillon cube and water, simmer for 20 minutes. Combine all the embotido ingredients together in a bowl and mix well. Form into a log and wrap in aluminum foil or cheesecloth. Lower carefully into the simmering soup stock and cook over low fire for an hour. Remove from stock and cool before slicing. To make gravy, thicken remaining stock with 2 tablespoons flour dispersed in 2 tablespoons water.
