Tuyak: the soup of the morning after
Saturday, February 18th, 2006 at 8:30 pm by ZarinaNobody asked for this recipe but everybody needs it, after a wedding. My cousin got married last Saturday and Sunday at six in the morning my uncles were at my grandmother door.
Tuyak is the broth of sheep's feet, boiled all night, until the soup is almost jelly. It is also for the night shift men who come home from the oil fields, and for people with cold.
Ingredients:
- 6 sheep's feet, cleaned and singed (the butcher at Bazar-i Kalan does it for you)
- 1 onion, salt, 3 bay leaves, black pepper
- 8 cloves garlic
- kurut dissolved in a bowl of hot water
Instructions: Boil the feet, throw the first water. New water, small fire, 8-9 hours or all night. Take the meat from the bones. Serve in deep bowls with garlic and kurut water on top, and bread. Some uncles take a glass of sygyndy with it. I do not write what for. I say only that it works.
In my family we eat it when the winter is long. Also for the new mothers. Good for the bones.
I read this at 11 pm without dinner. Zarina, this is cruelty.
