Hola a Todos
More than La Hallaca, a gastronomic dish that should never be missing on the table on Christmas Day and New Year's Eve. It is made with corn flour, the same with which we make our traditional arepas. Except that its preparation is different, since you are wrapped in banana leaves. Its preparation evokes family unity, sharing and celebration, as it is always done so that each family shares and integrates more. Each home has its own way of making it and depending on the area, some ingredients of the filling change. The ones that we will make are very simple and are my mother's recipe. A very true Venezuelan saying is the one that says "The Best Hallaca is made by my Mom."

Lo principal que hacemos es el guiso con carne de res, colocamos la carne a ablandar y cortamos en cuadros pequeños.
The main thing we do is stew with beef, we place the meat to soften and cut into small squares.
Esta carne se aliña con cebolla, cebollín, ají,ajo,pimentón, alcaparras. Cortando todo muy pequeño.
This meat is dressed with onion, chives, chili, garlic, paprika, capers. Cutting everything very small.
Se lleva a cocinar la carne y junto a todos los aliños, agregando sal al gusto.
The meat is cooked and together with all the dressings, adding salt to taste.
El pollo es utilizado solo la pechuga, la cual se lleva a cocinar y luego se desmecha,para ser utlizar como decoración de nuestra hallaca.
The chicken is used only for the breast, which is taken to cook and then shredded, to be used as a decoration of hallaca.
Otros ingredientes que son utilizados para decorar son las pasas, aceitunas,cebolla y pimentón. Aquí cada quien le agrega según su tradición.
Other ingredients that are used to decorate are raisins, olives, onion and paprika. Here everyone adds it according to their tradition.
La realización de la masa es como hacemos la masa de arepas, sin embargo tiene una peculiaridad es amarilla,la podemos hacer como la masa que viene ya lista con el color amarillo,pero nos gusta prepararla con los onoto,que es un una semilla roja que le da color, está se prepara con aceite y se coloca en la masa.Se debe amasar muy bien que no queden con grumos.
The making of the dough is how we make the arepas dough, however it has a peculiarity is yellow, we can make it like the dough that is already ready with the yellow color, but we like to prepare it with the onoto, which is a red seed That gives it color, it is prepared with oil and placed in the dough. It must be kneaded very well so that there are no lumps.
Ahora con todos los ingredientes listo,guiso,masa,hojas y adornos, procedemos a armar nuestras hallacas. Tomando una hoja y colocamos una bolita de masa, aplanando allí agregamos guiso en el centro adornamos con cebolla,pimentón,aceituna y pasitas. Y envolvemos para proceder amarrar.
Now with all the ingredients ready, stew, dough, leaves and decorations, we proceed to assemble our Hallacas. Taking a leaf and we place a ball of dough, flattening there we add stew in the center we decorate with onion, paprika, olives and raisins. And we wrap to proceed to tie.
La técnica del amarrado, que es mi parte favorita,ya que desde pequeña ayudaba era amarrando las hallacas, es fácil pero debe hacerse bien, porque de lo contrario será un desastre al momento de cocinar. Se debe amarrar con un hilo blanco grueso llamado pabilo. Este año le tocó a mi hijo @ster27 aprender a amarrar y lo hizo excelente. 👍
The tying technique, which is my favorite part, since I was helping since I was little, was tying the Hallas, it is easy but it must be done well, otherwise it will be a disaster when cooking. It should be tied with a thick white thread called a wick. This year it was my son @ster27 turn to learn to tie and he did excellent. 👍
Cuando ya tenemos todas las hallacas lista, procedemos a cocinar, que debe ser en una olla grande con agua,se le agrega sal para que la Hallaca no pierda el gusto al hervir. Esta parte siempre la hacía mi papá,quien no está físicamente pero su recuerdo en esta época esta presente, el siempre las cocinaba a leña, las cuales le da un sabor único. Nosotros sin embargo para mayor comodidad las hicimos en la cocina. Estás deben hervir por 30 minutos aproximadamente.
When we have all the Hallaca ready, we proceed to cook, which should be in a large pot with water, salt is added so that the Hallaca does not lose its taste when boiling. This part was always done by my father, who is not physically present but his memory at this time is present, he always cooked them with wood, which gives it a unique flavor. However, for greater comfort, we made them in the kitchen. These should boil for approximately 30 minutes.
Lo mejor de hacer hallacas en familia , es la unión que ello conlleva. Mi esposo por trabajo no nos acompaño, pero igual disfruté de la compañía de @abuelade6, @ster27 y @jacs2010 y compartir con todos nuestros amigos de Hive.Blog.
The best thing about doing Hallas as a family is the union that this entails. My husband for work did not join us, but I still enjoyed the company of @abuelade6, @ster27 and @jacs2010 and sharing with all our friends from Hive.Blog.
