About Fasole cu Ciolan
Savori Urbane presents fasole cu ciolan afumat as a Romanian bean-and-smoked-hock dish associated with December's national celebrations. Its rendition combines dried beans with pork hock and a sauce of onion, carrot and concentrated tomato.
The beans cook in broth made from the hock itself. Sweet paprika, caraway and black pepper season the stew, with the meat returned in pieces after deboning.
The finished dish is served hot, with soft beans surrounding the pieces of smoked pork. Sour cream is an optional topping, while pickled cucumber provides a tangy accompaniment alongside the rich stew.
