Pickled Kolichel with Sweet and Tangy Sauce

In my family, we always serve a pickled meat, usually pickled tongue, in a sweet sauce at the Purim seudah. I find that pickled tongue isn’t always a crowd-pleaser, so I switched it to something that still looks beautiful when plated. Made with the same sweet and tangy sauce, we now have a meat that pleases all!

Directions

Prepare the Pickled Kolichel

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).

  2. Place the meat into a deep baking dish along with the bay leaves and garlic powder. Add enough water to cover the meat.

  3. Cover the pan tightly and bake for three and a half hours or until fork-tender. Remove meat from the pan. Cool and slice.

Prepare the Sauce

  1. Place all the ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, making sure the cranberry sauce is fully dissolved. Lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.

  2. Preheat oven to 250 degrees Fahrenheit (120 degrees Celsius).

  3. Place the sliced meat in a baking pan. Pour the sauce over it. Cover and bake for half an hour.

You can, but you may need to add flavor/salt pepper to the meat, or it may taste bland.
