Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Combine the garlic, fresh ginger and sesame oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet and place, uncovered, in the oven for 20 minutes, stirring often until softened and lightly cooked. Remove the pan from the oven, cool and store the mixture in a tightly sealed container for up to one week.
- Step 2
To use the press, spread half the mixture in a layer on the bottom of a roasting pan and cover with a single sheet of cheesecloth. Place chicken breasts, veal or beef paillards on the mixture and cover with a second layer of cheesecloth. Layer the second half of the ginger-garlic mixture over the meat and press gently.
- Step 3
Refrigerate for six to eight hours. Remove the press from the meat before cooking. The ginger-garlic mixture can be re-used.
