Beer is the best thing that can happen to chicken. High quality beer made from malt and hop gives the meat beautiful, shiny color and makes it very soft and scrumptious. Don’t worry, the bitter taste of beer won’t leave its mark on the thighs, you’ll just meet with a fine and light aroma. Use thighs with skin and bones because they have more flavor and moisture. Serve with some green salads and/or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
You often ask me what kind of cottage cheese (or curd cheese or farmer's cheese - call it what you want) I use in the recipes. In Hungary the store-bought cottage cheese is dry and crumbly as you can see in the picture. So if a recipe calls for túró, I mean this type. If you can't obtain túró, you can try to make your own from whole milk. Click on the link below.
In Hungary metric units are in use, all the recipes on this website are based on this system, so a kitchen scale is necessary. Since I’m not familiar with cup as a measurement unit, I convert grams to cups by using an online converter. The values in brackets, therefore, are only approximate volumes, so, please, double-check them before you start cooking.
