Tjälknöl

This is claimed to be a Swedish invention. Created as a mistake in 1982.

A woman put a frozen rump of moose in the oven at 75°C to defrost, only to forget about it. 12 hrs later she found the meat which was then at 60 degrees. To make it tastier and less tough she put it in brine (liter of water, couple tbsp salt, tbsp sugar, garlic, juniper berries, thyme) for a few hrs. It was sliced and turned out to be really good.

The name tjälknöl is derived from the Swedish word Tjäle meaning frozen ground and knöl which is lump.

Served cold thinly sliced with a creamy, cheesy dauphinoise potatoes

That sounds great!
Could you brine it before cooking?

Since the meat is frozen solid when it goes in the oven the brine wouldn't do anything.

Thanks.
This is on my list for future eats.

It's basically fool proof.

The brine can be changed to one's own liking. I really like the tang the juniper brings.

[boatme99]

Yeah, I love juniper!
