kõvastumisviisil
Kõvastumisviisil is a term used in Estonian to describe a specific method of cooking or preparing food, particularly meats, by slow cooking in a covered pot. This method is often used for tougher cuts of meat, such as beef or pork, to tenderize and infuse the meat with flavor. The process involves placing the meat in a pot, covering it with a lid, and allowing it to cook slowly over low heat for an extended period. The slow cooking process breaks down the connective tissues in the meat, making it tender and more palatable. Additionally, the covered pot helps to retain moisture, which contributes to the overall tenderness and juiciness of the meat. Kõvastumisviisil is a traditional cooking technique in Estonian cuisine and is often used to prepare hearty, comforting dishes that are rich in flavor.
