About Ciulama de Pui
Savori Urbane presents this ciulama as an old Romanian chicken preparation with a flour-thickened white sauce. Its rendition uses bone-in drumsticks, homemade vegetable-enriched chicken stock, mushrooms and fermented sour cream.
Butter gives the sauce its richness, while sauteed mushrooms, onion and garlic add savoury depth. An additional crushed-garlic finish is optional, and parsley and dill provide the fresh garnish.
The tender drumsticks are coated in the smooth sauce, with cooked carrot cubes added for colour. The dish is kept warm and served in deeper plates alongside plain mamaliga.
