Carne con Cuero
Meat roasted with its hide attached after seasoning with garlic, herbs and paprika.

About Carne con Cuero
Pascal's asado con cuero appears in his 1898 Montevideo cookbook as a preparation for meat with its hide attached. Deep cuts allow a garlic-and-herb marinade to reach into the roast.
Bay, oregano and thyme accompany hot paprika, salt and white pepper in the seasoning. Oil carries these flavours over the meat before it rests and roasts over a gentle fire.
The hide stays attached throughout the preparation. In the hot serving described by Pascal, the roast comes with its own cooking juices offered separately alongside the meat.
