Making of recipe
Cut into strips salami and ham. Deprive the sausage from the gut and crumble it. Cut the lean beef stew-like. Same cut for the hip of chicken. In a saucepan, prepare the meat broth. Use enough water to boil ham, salami , beef and chicken hip adding the carrot, celery and parsley. It takes about an hour to cook the meat. During this time, add the Parmesan peel, cut into slices and add salt to taste. Every now and then foam will form that you will absolutely remove with a ladle. In another pot, after being thoroughly rinsed and dried, put it to boil all the vegetables without cooking them fully because they will have to continue cooking with the meat broth. Drain the vegetables and then, when the meat broth is done, add to this. One more hour on the fire. A few minutes before turning off the heat, add the grated Parmesan cheese too, stirring thoroughly. At the same time, check the salting and possibly adjust. Check the softness of the flesh now frayed and turn off letting it rest for a while. Someone likes to eat it warm as well, however, someone prefers it lukewarm. It’s for you to decide.
