BEEF BOURGUIGNON

Instructions:

Serves 4

The Burgundy region of France is famous for its fine wines and

sophisticated cuisine. Dishes "a la bourguignonne" generally include a

sauce made of red wine and a garnish of small onions, mushrooms and

pieces

of bacon.

Marinade

1 large carrot, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

1 onion, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

1 stalk celery, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

2 cloves garlic

Bouquet garni

1/4 cup brandy

10 black peppercorns

6 cups good red wine

2 tablespoons oil

2 lb. beef chuck steak, trimmed and cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes

1 heaped tablespoon tomato paste

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups brown stock (see Related Recipe)

32 small boiling onions, peeled

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

2 teaspoons sugar

5 oz. mushrooms, cut into quarters

2 tablespoons chopped garlic

8 oz. slab or sliced bacon, cut into cubes or short batons

2 slices white bread, crusts removed and cut in triangles

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Place all the ingredients for the marinade in a bowl with the cubes of

beef. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Strain the marinade into a

saucepan,

remove the beef and set aside, and keep the vegetables and bouquet

garni

separate. Bring the marinade to a boil, skim off the foam and cook for

6-8

minutes. Strain through a fine sieve. In a large heavy-bottomed

flameproof

casserole or Dutch oven, heat a little oil and butter. Pat dry the

meat and

brown on all sides in batches, remove and keep to one side. Add the

well-drained vegetables from the marinade, lower the heat slightly and

cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned. Return the meat to

the

pan with the tomato paste and stir over medium heat for 3 minutes.

Sprinkle

with the flour, place in the oven for 6-8 minutes, then remove and mix

in

the flour. Place over medium heat, add the marinade and bring to a

boil,

stirring constantly, then add the stock and bouquet garni. Return to a

boil, cover and cook in the oven for 1 hour 30 minutes, or until the

meat

is tender.

Place the onions, butter, sugar and some salt in a deep skillet and

pour in

enough water to cover. Cook over medium heat until the water has

almost

evaporated and swirl the skillet until the onions are golden. Fry the

mushrooms in some sizzling butter until golden, season, drain and add

to

the onions. Fry the garlic and bacon in a little oil, drain and add to

the

onions and mushrooms.

Brush the bread with melted butter and toast in the oven for 3-5

minutes,

or until brown.

Once the beef is cooked, skim off excess fat. Remove the beef to a

clean

flameproof casserole or serving dish, cover and keep warm. Strain the

sauce

and return it to the pan, discarding the vegetables and bouquet garni.

Bring the sauce to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the

sauce

coats the back of a spoon, skimming frequently. Season, strain over

the

meat and simmer or return to the oven for 5 minutes. Add the onions,

mushrooms and bacon. Dip a corner of each bread crouton in the sauce,

then

into the parsley. Sprinkle the remaining parsley over the beef and

serve

with the croutons on the edge of the dish or on the side.

BEEF BOURGUINON

Instructions:

From: ynnuf@yetti.amigans.gen.nz (Doreen Randal)

Source: Crockpot Cooking from Barbara Blitz

Ingredients:

------------

4 lbs lean beef cubed

1 - 1 1/2 cups red wine

1/3 cup oil

1 tsp thyme

1 tsp black pepper

8 slices bacon, diced

2 cloves garlic crushed

1 onion diced

1 lb mushrooms sliced

1/3 cup flour

Instructions:

Marinate beef in wine,oil,thyme and pepper 4 hrs at room temp. or

overnight in the fridge.

n large pan, cook bacon until soft. Add garlic and onion sauteeing

until soft. Add mushrooms and cook until slightly wilted. Drain beef

reserving liquid. Place beef in slow cooker. Sprinkle flour over the

beef stirring until well coated. Add mushroom mixture on top. Pour

reserved marinade over all. Cook on LOW 8-9 hrs.

Here's another extremely simple (and deceivingly good) recipe for pot

roast,

also known as brisket:

Sear a 5-6 lb. beef brisket on all sides in a heavy skillet over

medium-high

heat until nicely browned.

Take two sheets of heavy duty aluminum foil and criss-cross them in

front of

you; place in a roasting pan. Place seared brisket on top of foil.

Chop

about 3 large onions into half-rings and place on top of brisket. Now

add

about 2/3 bottle of Heinz ketchup over onions and brisket. Wrap this

mixture

tightly in the alumnimum foil to make a "package."

Roast the meat in a preheated oven at 375#161# for about 1 hour and 45

minutes. Let sit for 15 minutes before unwrapping. The ketchup,

onions and

beef juices will have made a delicious gravy for the meat. Slice meat

into

1/2" slices and serve the gravy on the side.

This recipe can be made in advance and frozen. Freeze the gravy

separately

from the meat. When ready to reheat, thaw in the microwave and heat

the gravy

and meat together in a large, deep skillet on the stove.

BEEF JERKY #2

Instructions:

Here is how I make Beef jerky.

Slice a flank steak with the grain into 1/8" strips trimming the fat

as you go. Put the strips in a large bowl and sprinkle on Morton's

Curing Salt at the rate of 1 tbsp. per pound of meat. Mix it in

thoroughly, and place the bowl in your refrigerator for two days. This

gives the meat time to cure. I've found this to be an important step,

here in Florida, to keep the meat from going bad in the summertime.

For seasoning, I use 1 tsp. of pepper per pound for a nice peppery

flavor, that's all.

For drying, I use an old charcoal smoker and a hot plate. I set the

temperature on the hot plat to 130 - 140 degrees. Any hotter, and some

of the thinner strips tend to be overcooked. I put the hot plate in

the bottom of the smoker and lay the strips on the racks between 18"

and 24" from the hot plate. I put the cover on the smoker and let it

go for about 6 hours.

BEEF JERKY RECIPE

Instructions:

Slice lean boneless beef (such as brisket) into 1/8" strips, trimming

fat. Cut with the grain for chewy jerky or across the grain for

crumbly jerky. Lay strips on oven rack (use foil or pan underneath to

catch drippings). Salt to taste. Dry in oven at lowest temperature

(150 degrees), leaving door slightly ajar, for 8-12 hours. Turn

several times for even drying. Taste test occasionally. For more

seasoned flavor, marinate cut meat overnight in the following

ingredients:

Enough for 1-1/2 pounds of meat.

1 tsp. each - salt,seasoning salt 1/2 tsp. each - pepper, onion

powder, garlic salt 1/4 cup each - soy sauce, worchestershire

Dry as above.

Vary marinade as experience and personal taste dictate... for

BEEF JERKY RECIPE #3

Instructions:

1 lb. (454g) sirloin or top round steak 1 inch thick

1/2 cup water

1&1/2 oz. (42g) package of onion soup mix

1 tsp. (5ml) liquid smoke

1/4tsp. (1ml) garlic powder

1/4tsp. (1ml) salt

1/8tsp. (.5ml) pepper

You will need:

a sharp knife

a cutting board

a plastic bag

measuring

spoons

measuring cups

a small bowl

a mixing spoon

paper towels

wire

racks

a cookie sheet

oven mitts and a pair of tongs.

1. Cut all the visible fat from the meat. Cut the meat into long

strips about 1/8 inch (3mm) thick. This is easier to do if you

partially freeze the meat first. Put the strips into the plastic bag.

2. Measure the remaining 6 ingredients into the small bowl. Stir

together well. Pour into the bag over the meat. Remove as much air as

you can from the bag. Seal with a twist tie. Squeeze to get all the

beef wet with marinade. Place the bag in the refrigerator, turning

occasionally, for a least 6 hours or overnight. Turn the oven on to

150F (65C). Remove the beef from the marinade. Blot with some paper

towels. Arrange the meat strips on the wire rack in the cookie

sheet.Dry on the center rack in the oven for 4 hours. Use the oven

mitts to remove the pan from the oven. Turn the beef strips over with

the tongs. Continue to dry the strips in the oven for 3 or 4 more

hours until the strips begin to get brittle. Use the oven mitts to

remove the cookie sheet to the second wire rack. Cool completely. This

keeps well. Freeze the jerky for long-term storage or keep the jerky

refrigerated.

1 (3 1/2 pound) beef tenderloin, trimmed of fat

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon Creole Seasoning

BILL'S BURGERS

Instructions:

I created this by chance. I needed some moisture and didn't have any

eggs so I added a can of cranberry sauce... and hence my great

Hamburgers were born. Amazing how one can sub. one thing for the

other. I now keep eggs fresh in the fridge just for this recipe,

along with a can of cranberry sauce.

1- can cranberry sauce < about 8 oz's ?>

2-lbs Pork/beef/turkey < whatever your choice of meat >.

6-8 garlic cloves , sliced thinly. < one can never have

enough garlic>.

2-onions < cubed into small pieces, about the size

of one of the letters on your screen >.

1-envelope of salt free crackers < crushed and

made into a powder >.

2-Eggs <hopefully farm fresh as they do add flavor >.

1-dash of soya sauce < careful on this as it does

contain a lot of salt>.

a pinch of dry Mustard.

Mix all of the above and then form into patties. I even make a

Meatloaf out of this recipe in winter. Cook slowly and you'll enjoy a

mouthwatering treat. Add your own condiments,

Tomato/onions/lettuce.etc to the bun and enjoy.

Note: there is a lot of sugar in the cranberry sauce so cook slowly.

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

5 lbs trimmed beef stew meat

salt

pepper

2 cinnamon sticks

garlic cloves

2 ancho chilies

soaking water

2 lbs dried northern beans, cooked

salt

3 lbs Italian sausage; hot/mild

2 onions

or 3 onions, finely diced

4 peeled carrots

6 celery stalks

1 large can tomatoes

2 ancho chilies, additional

soaking water

chicken stock

1. Oven roast 5 lbs. of trimmed beef stew meat. Season with salt and

pepper, 2 cinnamon sticks, a handful of garlic cloves and 2 ancho

chilies

soaked in warm water (use the water too). Roast at 375F degrees, 2-3

hours,

until the meat is tender. Cool and refrigerate; then remove the fat

that

has congealed on the top.

2. Soak and cook 2 lbs. dried northern beans, adding salt after the

beans

are tender. Cool the beans by surrounding the pot with an ice-water

bath in

the sink or transferring the hot beans into shallow plastic

containers.

Beans are easily soured, so it is important to not put them in the

refrigerator hot. It will take too long for the middle of the pot to

cool.

3. Sausage: 3 lbs. hot or mild Italian sausage or a combination of the

two.

Prick the sausage with a fork on both sides. Roast 25 minutes at 375

degrees. Cool the sausage and cut into three-inch chunks.

4. Finely dice 2-3 onions, 4 peeled carrots, and 6 celery stalks.

Saute

until onions are clear. In a large ovenproof roasting pan, combine the

defatted beef, the beans, sausage and the vegetables. Add 1 large can

of

tomatoes, 2 more ancho chilies that have been soaked in warm water,

and

enough chicken stock to make the whole mixture very wet.

Do not combine until right before you bake or the beans will absorb

the

moisture and the dish will be dry. Top the mixture with toasted bread

crumbs and bake at 350 degrees until the sides are bubbling, the

crumbs

have browned and formed a crust, and the middle of the casserole is

hot.

> I have posted a few times about this but nobody has gotten back to

me.

> I am looking for a recipe for homemade hot sauce.

This salsa I've been making for years--friends regularly ask me to

bring

over a pint of it or to give as gifts. It lasts indefinitely in the

refrigerator.

This is from West-Central Mexico and is best on tacos or in menudo and

pozole. In Mexico it comes in corked liter bottles. Besides the

pumpkin

seeds, it has a dash of tequila.

This sauce is fondly known as pumpkin seed sauce.

Salt; to taste

-Pepper; to taste

2 T Butter

Cream gravy

One of the old standbys, this was served in many of the roadside

diners that catered to truck drivers. It soon became a favorite of

just about everybody.

Cut the steak crosswise into 4 serving pieces. Place one piece

between two sheets of plastic wrap then using a rolling pin or meat

pounder, pound to a 1/4-inch thickness. Repeat with the remaining

pieces. In a pie plate, beat the milk and eggs together, in a second

pie plate combine the flour and the seasonings together. Dip each

piece of steak first into the egg mixture then into the flour

mixture, coating completely. Shake gently to remove the excess flour

mixture. Melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet, using medium heat,

fry the steaks, two at a time, about 5 minutes on a side or until

golden brown on each side. Serve with biscuits and cream gravy.

From The Redbook Magazine January 1986

For a crunchier/crisper outer crust, dip meat in flour mix first. Then

into the drench followed by a second dip into the flour. Meat should

be

at room temperature. This works for crispy fried chicken as well.

Learned this from a old short order cook, she made the finest cfs that

I

have ever eaten!!!!

CLASSIC PRIME RIB

Instructions:

Yield: 8 servings

1 Standing roast of beef

- (4-rib, about 10-11 lbs)

2 Tbsp Flavorless cooking oil

Salt and pepper; to taste

PREHEAT OVEN TO 450F. TRIM the excess fat from the roast, leaving only

1/4-inch of fat. Heat the oil in a large roasting pan over

medium-to-high heat on top of the stove. When the oil is hot, place

the roast, fat-side down, in the pan and brown for 5 minutes. Turn

the roast on one end and cook another 5 minutes. Turn on the other

end and cook 5 minutes. Remove from heat and discard fat. Sprinkle

with desired salt and pepper. Place roast in oven and immediately

reduce heat to 350F. Roast approximately 12 minutes per pound for

medium-rare, or about 2 hours for a 10-lb roast. Remove the pan from

the oven, remove the roast from the pan and let stand for 25 minutes

before carving. To serve, strain the gravy into a sauce boat and carve

the roast at the table, counting on about 2 people per rib.

FREEZING THE ROAST: Do not carve the entire roast if you don't have

to. A whole solid piece of meat is more successfully cooked when

defrosted than a few smaller pieces. Before freezing, heat a dry fry

pan over high heat on top of the stove. Place the remainder of the

roast, cut side down, in the pan and sear well. Allow the roast to

cool to room temperature. Wrap with freezer paper and then over wrap

in plastic wrap. Label and place in the freezer for up to 1 month.

Defrost, without unwrapping, in the refrigerator for 24 to 28 hours.

To reheat defrosted rib roast, wrap prime rib in 1 layer of microwave

plastic wrap and place in a covered roasting pan or Dutch oven.

Cover, place in the oven, turn temperature to 250F and cook about 8

minutes per pound or until a meat thermometer placed in the thickest

part of the roast reads 110F. Remove pan from the oven and turn

temperature to 450F. Unwrap the roast, replace, uncovered in the pan

and replace in the oven for about 15 minutes to crust the outside.

1 medium onion, chopped

2 TBS butter or margarine

3/4 cup sour cream

1 tsp. dry mustard

Dash cayenne

1/8 tsp. black pepper

hour

before baking.

Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes for large dish and about 20 minutes

for

individual dishes until bubbly and lightly browned.

Arrange egg slices ion top and sprinkle with parsley.

Cynthia's notes: If preferred, use canned roast beef hash. Poached

eggs can

be used instead of hard-boiled. However, they must be prepared at the

last

minute. You can also use good-sized individual baking dishes for more

attractive servings. Cut baking time about 5 minutes.

Recipe may be halved or doubled. For 8 servings, increase baking time

to

about 30 minutes.

CROCK POT STUFFED PEPPERS

Instructions:

Cut the top off and remove seeds from:

6 green peppers (select tall rather than wide ones so they fit)

Combine:

1 pound ground beef or ground turkey

1/3 cup uncooked rice

1 onion, grated

Salt and pepper as you like it

Any other seasonings you prefer: oregano, parsley, garlic, basil,

chili

powder, etc...

Stuff each pepper about 2/3 full (rice will need room to swell up).

That's right, the meat and rice go in raw, that's the beauty of it!

Stand the peppers side-by-side in the slow cooker (you can stack them

if

you have to).

Combine and pour over the peppers:

1 cup tomato sauce

1 cup water

(I haven't tried it, but you could probably use 2 cups of salsa

instead

of the sauce and water)

Cook on low for 6-8 hours. If desired, heat more sauce to serve with

the

peppers.

CUBAN STUFFED POT ROAST "BOLICHE"

Instructions:

Yield: 8 servings

4 lb Eye of round roast

2 Spanish sausages (chorizos)

6 Garlic cloves

1/2 tsp Dried oregano

1/8 tsp Paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup Orange juice

1/4 cup Lime juice

1/4 cup Lemon juice

1/2 cup Olive oil

2 large Onions; thickly sliced

2 Bay leaves; crumbled

1 cup Dry sherry

3 cup Beef broth

4 med Potatoes; peeled and halved

To make the pocket for the chorizo stuffing, insert a long- bladed

knife all the

way through the roast, beginning at the flat end of the meat. (Note:

Most

butchers can do this for you, if preferred.) Rotate the blade 90

degrees, and

insert it again. Stuff the pocket with the chorizo. Pierce the roast

all over

with the tip of the knife. Combine the garlic cloves and oregano in a

mortar and

pestle, mash together into a paste, and rub over the roast. Season the

roast

with paprika, salt and pepper. Pour the lime and lemon juices over the

roast,

and allow to marinate, refrigerated, for three to four hours or

overnight. After

marinating, remove the meat from the container, reserving marinade.

Heat the

olive oil over medium heat in a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven. When the

roast is

browned on all sides, remove it from the pot, and set aside. Add the

onions to

the Dutch oven, and cook, stirring over medium-low heat four to six

minutes.

Onions should be tender but not brown. Return the roast to the pot.

Add the bay

leaves, sherry, broth and reserved marinade. Bring to a boil over

medium-high

heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer about two hours. Add

the

potatoes, and continue to simmer, covered, an additional 30 minutes or

until

potatoes are tender. Add more beef broth if necessary. Remove the

roast from the

pot, and allow it to rest for 10 minutes. Slice the roast into

1/2-inch-thick

slices. Arrange the slices on a platter, and surround with the

potatoes. Spoon

the remaining sauce over the platter. Serves six to eight.

---dry ingredients---

1 tb Ginger; powdered

1 tb Mustard; powdered

1 tb Paprika

1/2 tb Salt

1/2 tb Five-spice powder; chinese

1 ts Black pepper

1 ts Chili powder

1 ts Sage; powdered

1 ts Crushed red pepper

---basting sauce---

1/2 c Tomato juice

1 c Peach preserves

2 tb Barbecue sauce; commercial

2 tb Butter or margarine, melted

1 tb Wine vinegar

1 tb Onion; finely minced

1 tb Bell pepper; finely minced

Juice of one and one-half li

-mes

Tabasco sauce; two or three

-dashes

Directions: To get started, place a handful of hickory or mesquite

chips into cold water and set aside. Parboil rib sections in boiling

water for about ten minutes (this partially cooks them and renders

much of the fat). Remove rib sections and set on wire rack to cool.

Combine dry ingredients in a bowl and blend well with a fork. When

rib sections are cool, rub the dry ingredient mixture into the meat.

Stack rib sections, seal in aluminum foil and let them sit in the

refrigerator for about two hours. After two hours, start the coals in

your smoker. Combine ingredients for basting sauce in a blender and

blend until smooth. Transfer the basting sauce to a saucepan and heat

over low heat until it begins to bubble. If you prefer for the

basting sauce to be thicker, mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 1/4

cup of cold water, and mix a little of the cornstarch mixture into

the basting sauce a bit at a time until desired consistency is

achieved. When the coals are uniform gray, scatter a few of the wet

wood chips over them. Rub grill with a paper towel dipped in

vegetable oil. Brush ribs with basting sauce and place them on the

grill. Cover with smoker lid (leave vents about half-open). Grill

the ribs for about an hour, turning about every fifteen minutes and

basting as you turn them. Add wood chips to the coals as necessary to

maintain smoke. Serve ribs with warm basting sauce. Formatted for

FRESH KIELBASA

Instructions:

FRESH KIELBASA

6 feet large casings ( Optional )

3 pounds lean pork butt

1 pound lean beef chuck cubed

1/2 pound veal, cubed

1/2 pound pork fat, cubed

2 1/2 tsp salt

3 tsp fresh ground black pepper

2 tsp ground marjoram

2 tsp ground summer savory

1/2 tsp ground allspice

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons sweet hungariun paprika

Gather all the utensils, wash them thourouly and wash the work area,

and

your hands. If you get called away, wash them again when you

get back.Prepare the casing as explained above. If you are using a

food

processor. process the meat to a very fine dice and mix in the

seasonings after the entire batch of meat has been processed. If you

are

using an electric grinder with a sausage attachment, sprinkle

the seasonings over the meat and mix with your hands before grinding

since the grinding and stuffing will be one operation. If you are

using a hand grinder, put the meat through the fine disk (1/4 inch or

smaller)twice. Mix in the seasonings between the first and second

grindings.

Sausage tastes better if it has a chance to allow the spices to

incorporate throughout the meat. Weather you made sausage in casings

or

not, refrigerate at least a couple hours. Fresh sausage will keep ok

in

the fridge for a couple days. Otherwise wrap and freeze it.

Cooking fresh sausage should be thorough and slowly. Never eat pork

that

has not been completely cooked!

GUINNESS STEW

Instructions:

Saw a request for Beef Stew with Guinness. I usually make stew with

Guinness, but use a half-lamb, half-beef mix. For the full Irish stew

effect, you can use all lamb, but it might be a bit much for those who

aren't used to the taste. You can also do all beef of course, but the

lamb

and Guinness go so well together that it'd be a shame to leave it out

entirely.

2.5 lbs beef (chuck roast) and/or lamb (shoulder) - the tougher,

fattier cuts

of meat are fine, as they will become tender through long cooking.

4-6 medium potatoes (about 2.5 lbs)

4-6 large carrots (about 1 lb)

3 Tbsp bacon fat or lard

2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce

1 tsp coarse black pepper

1/2 tsp oregano

1/2 tsp fennel seeds

1/4 tsp tarragon

1/4 tsp sweet paprika

1/4 tsp thyme

2 bay leaves

1 tsp gumbo file

1 can (14.9 oz) Guinness (pub draught style)

flour

water

Cut the meat into large chunks (about 1.5 or 2 inches on a side). Put

some

flour (1/4 cup or so should do it) in a bowl, add the meat, and toss

until

coated. Do not bother to shake off excess flour. In a deep cast-iron

stewpot, heat bacon fat on high until it sputters when you drip water

on

it. For those of you who can't bear using animal fat, 2 Tbsp of your

favorite oil should work fine. When hot, drop meat into stewpot and

brown

thoroughly on high heat. Be attentive here and stir the meat often

until

all sides are browned. Add 1 cup of the Guinness and the

Worcestershire

sauce. Let it simmer a couple minutes until flavor and aroma have

developed, scraping any brown bits up from the pan bottom and sides.

Add 1

cup water, herbs and spices (except file), and remaining Guinness.

Let

simmer on medium-high heat for 10-15 minutes. While it simmers, wash

potatoes and cut into large chunks (perhaps 6 chunks per potato, and

yes

they really should be that big). And don't peel them - it's

sacrilegious.

Wash (don't peel) the carrots, and cut them into long pieces (2 inches

or

so). Add potatoes and carrots to stew. Add enough water to almost

cover

everything, cover and cook over medium heat for at least an hour,

preferably two. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking or burning.

When

you stir, use a fork. Break a few of the potatoes up as you do,

mixing

them back into the broth. This will result in a much thicker,

heartier

stew. You may also adjust the thickness to your preference with water

or

flour, depending on how you like it. About 15 minutes before serving,

add

1/2 tsp of the gumbo file, turn off heat and let the stew stand to

thicken

(don't worry, the cast iron pot will keep it plenty warm). The file

is a

good thickener, so if your stew is too thin, add the full teaspoon.

During

dinner, leave the pot covered in a warm (but turned-off) oven or on a

burner over the lowest possible heat. This will keep it warm when

people

go back for seconds (and they will). Serve with Guinness, bread (for

sopping up afterwards), and plenty of salt. Seal and refrigerate any

uneaten stew. To reheat, add a little water and simmer until

thoroughly

warmed. This stew loses absolutely nothing by being around for a

couple of

days.

Variations: This is a very rich and flavorful stew as is, and really

does

not need the additional flavors of garlic or onion common in most

stews.

However, for people who must have them, one large yellow onion (diced)

can

be added in the last few minutes of the browning of the meat, but be

careful not to burn it. Garlic should be crushed or minced and added

along

with the spices. Other common additions include peas, celery,

parsley, and

other vegetables. Just do what feels right ;) Enjoy!

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

4 tablespoons sour cream

1. In a large stock pot over medium-high heat, add the butter or

margarine.

Add the onions and saute until softened, 3 to 5 minutes, stirring

frequently.

Reduce the heat to medium and add the paprika, garlic, caraway seeds,

dill

seed, and marjoram. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.

2. Add the beef and stir to combine. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring

frequently.

3. Add the flour and stir until it is absorbed into the onions and

beef, 1 to

2 minutes.

4. Add the broth, tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a

boil and

stir to deglaze and dislodge any bits of food that have stuck to the

bottom

of the pan and to incorporate the flour. Scrape your stirring spoon to

free

any flour that has adhered to it.

5. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 1 hour, stirring

occasionally.

6. Add the potatoes, cover and simmer for 30 to 45 minutes, or until

the meat

is tender, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.

7. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon of sour cream.

LAWRY'S PRIME RIB

Instructions:

1 - The most famous West Coast Restaurant for Prime Rib is "Lawry's

Prime Rib" in Beverly Hills, CA. They normally make a Prime Rib at

least 15 pounds or more, at a time. They recommend you use a meat

thermometer to determine doneness, because of the inaccuracy of

cooking times. Normally Lawry's cooks its beef rare, which would be

130 degrees on meat thermometer (about 18-20 minutes per pound).

Medium-rare is 140-150 degrees or 22-25 minutes per pound. Well

done (which they don't really like to serve) is 160-165 degrees for

about 27-30 minutes per pound. Allowing about 20 minutes for the

roast to stand before carving. To carve, roast should be place on its

side and cut across the grain towards the ribs.

2 - Per the latest article in Los Angeles Times Culinary SOS column

this is the revised recipe version for normal sized prime rib cooking:

1 8-10 pound prime rib

Rock salt

Seasoned Salt

Place Prime rib fat-side-up in baking pan (make sure the pan won't get

ruined by the rock salt). Roast at 325 degrees until meat thermometer

registers the correct temperature for the doneness you desire (see

above). 8-10 servings.

Don't forget to use the grease drippings to make Yorkshire Pudding!

Note - I have also made this same recipe on a Rotisserie for my

parents

Anniversary Party. It takes a lot more work that way. The reference

to

beef dripping in my posting for Yorkshire Pudding refers to a STANDING

RIB ROAST. This is a more tender cut of top grade beef. The

following

spices are used to add a gourmet touch when cooking the roast:

Garlic, chervil, dill weed, onions, paprika, parsley & rosemary

3 - To Prepare STANDING RIB ROAST (common name PRIME RIB)

Refrigerate the meat until roasting in 325 degree oven. Roast

uncovered. Do not add water.

Bake a 6-8 pound roast (smaller roast require more minutes per pound

to cook). Degree of Doneness - RARE 28-30 minutes per pound internal

meat temperature of 140 degrees Fahrenheit, MEDIUM 30-32 minutes per

pound internal meat temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit, WELL DONE

32-35 minutes per pound internal meat temperature of 170 degrees

Fahrenheit.

Use a shallow roasting pan or broiler pan & rack.

Carving tips: Remove roast from oven 20 minutes before carving. This

allows juices to set and permits easier carving and more uniform

slices.

4 - Standing Rib Roast (6 to 8 servings - with "planned-overs")

6 to 8 pound standing rib roast (3 to 4 ribs)

salt and pepper

Optional - To really make a tender and tasty roast, coat the exterior

of the roast with ROCK SALT before baking. Be sure not to allow rock

salt to remain in the roast drippings when used for Yorkshire Pudding.

1. Season roast with salt and pepper and place in uncovered roasting

pan with fat side up--standing on rib ends. No roasting rack is

necessary; the bones keep meat above drippings.

2. Do not cover pan or add water.

3. Roast to desired degree of doneness using timetable given

previously.

4. Carve. Garnish with watercress and mushrooms or spiced crab

apples. Each rib will yield two generous slices, one with bone and

one without.

5. Save pan drippings for Yorkshire Pudding.

I normally serve the Standing Rib Roast (PRIME RIB) with Horseradish

Cream Sauce.

Horseradish Cream Sauce

1 cup stiffly beaten heavy whipping cream

2-3 tablespoons fresh well-grated horseradish root

1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar

Dash each salt and white pepper

Add ingredients slowly, blending well. May be made in a blender.

Serve thoroughly chilled.

Classically the dessert served with Roast is plum pudding. Which

seems to be a popular subject on several cooking newsgroups currently.

I have even made the prime rib on an Open Hearth Electric Spit

Rotisserie.

For baking roast this way the diameter of the roast determines the

length

of time needed to cook. But normally for 3 ribs, cut bone short at

4-5"

length trim fat, roll and tie. For 5-6 pound roast cook 2 1/2 to 2

3/4

hours for RARE, 3 to 3 1/4 hours for MEDIUM and 3 1/4 to 3 1/2 hours

for

WELL DONE. This is the method I used almost 25 years ago for a party

I

gave for my parents 25th Anniversary. As I recall, I could fit 2

roasts

on the spit rotisserie to cook them.

Good Luck and Enjoy!

1/3 cup very finely chopped onion 2 Tbsp olive oil

1 Tbsp very finely minced garlic 1 1/2 tsp - 1 Tbsp salt

3 Tbsp finely chopped parsley 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper

1 cup fresh bread crumbs 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

1 egg 2 1/2 lb lean ground chuck

1/2 cup cold water 30 oz tomato sauce

Combine chopped onion, garlic, parsley and bread crumbs in a food

processor and mix 30 seconds.

Break the egg into a 3 quart bowl and mix well using a wire whisk.

Add

water, olive oil, salt, pepper, and nutmeg to the egg and whisk until

well whisked.

Add the bread crumb mixture, combining with a spatula. Add the ground

meat and mix thoroughly until ingredients are well distributed and the

tight and solid. (The finished meatballs should be about the size of

a golf ball.)

Pour 1/4 cup water into the pan and place in the oven. Time 15

minutes. Remove from the oven and loosen with a spatula. Return to

the oven an additional 10 minutes, or until cooked through. Drain.

MEXICAN CASSEROLE

Instructions:

1 pkg Kraft Dinner (no name brand will do)

1/2 - 1lb of hamburger meat

1 can of corn niblets (drained)

1 can of tomato soup (undiluted)

1 can of cream of mushroom soup (undiluted)

1 can of mushrooms (optional)

1/2 green pepper chopped (optional)

1 med. onion chopped (optional)

salt and pepper to taste

1 tbsp. curry powder

First make your Kraft Dinner according to the directions on the box.

Brown hamburger meat and drain. If using onions, partially cook in

pan

with hamburger meat. Put all cooked ingredients into an oven safe

casserole dish (you can also use a roast pan). Add the soup

(undiluted),

corn (drained), mushrooms, green pepper and curry. Mix thoroughly and

place in a preheated oven at 350 degrees for one hour.

I have made this recipe with as well as without the optional

ingredients

and either way it is very good. At times I have also tried it with a

little splash of Tabasco sauce. This gives it a nice added kick.

This dish is very easy to make and very tasty. Feel free to play with

the ingredients by adding or subtracting from the recipe. It makes

enough

for two with enough leftover for next day's lunch. Hope you try it

and enjoy!

MISTAKEN GOULASH FOR FOUR

Instructions:

1 tablespoon cooking oil

4 large onions, thinly-sliced

1 pound beef suitable for stewing (i.e., chuck, round, etc.), cut

into bite-size pieces

1 small can (8 oz.) tomato paste

1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper

2 tablespoons (yes, that much!) sweet paprika

1 tablespoon caraway seed (optional, but they'll dissolve in the long

cooking so don't omit them just to keep them out of your teeth--

they do give flavor)

water

Heat oil in a large heavy pot which has a cover. Add onions,

and cook covered over medium-low heat for ten minutes, stirring

occasionally. Onions should be translucent and limp after that

time, but not brown. Remove onions (I simply invert the covered pot

and let them be caught by the cover) and set aside. Raise heat and

brown cubes of beef in batches, so as not to cool the pot by putting

too many in. Return onions; add tomato paste and seasonings, and

just enough water to barely cover the mixture. Stir well; raise

heat to bring pot to boiling, then reduce heat to a simmer and

cover. Cook for as long as you can manage, at least three hours, or

place for the same time or longer in oven heated to 250 degrees.

The onions should dissolve and disappear into the sauce. The longer

this cooks over low heat the better it will taste, and as with all

these long-cooked things, it's even better the day after it's first

cooked. Serve ladled over cooked noodles or rice, and use any

leftovers just as they are as a shepherd's pie topped with mashed

potato mixed with egg and browned in the oven.

RARE PRIME RIB

Instructions:

Yield: 16 servings

12 lb Prime rib roast

Salt to taste

Black pepper to taste

Remove roast from the refrigerator at least two hours before

beginning to cook. Place in a shallow roasting pan and liberally

sprinkle fatty top with salt and pepper. Pat in. To protect the oven

from spattering fat, place a tent of aluminum foil loosely over the

top of the meat. Preheat the oven to 500*F and when preheated place

roast in oven and roast for the times listed below. THE TIMES MUST

ABE ADHERED TO EXACTLY. Set a timer to remind you as a few minutes of

overcooking will ruin the roast. When the cooking time ends, turn off

the oven but DO NOT open the door. Allow the roast to remain in the

oven for at least 1 hour or until the oven is lukewarm, which occurs

in about 2 hours. The roast will be beautifully rare inside and

retain a crunchy outside and an internal heat suitable for serving

for 2 hours. The roasting time works out to 15 minutes per rib or

approximately 5 minutes per pound. NOTES: 1. For a 2 rib roast

weighing 41/2 -5 lbs. allow 25 to 30 minutes at 500*F

2. For a 3 rib roast weighing 8-9 lbs. allow 40-45 minutes at

500F

For a 4 rib roast weighing 11-12 lbs. allow 55-60 minutes at

500*F

Have your butcher prepare the roast by removing the chine

bone and cutting the meat from the bones. Then return the chine bone

and the meat to its original shape and tie the roast to hold it

together. This will facilitate your carving.

A small end Prime rib is always the best.

3 c. red wine vinegar

1 1/2 T salt

3/4 tsp. thyme

1 1/2 T pickling spice

2) Remove meat from marinate - wipe spices from meat and brown in

1 1/2 T butter (save marinate).

3) When brown, remove meat to plate.

4) In pan, melt 4 1/2 T more butter. Add 3 1/2 T flour and stir till

SAUERBRATEN (POT ROAST)

Instructions:

INGREDIENTS

-------

4 lb beef **

1 pt vinegar

water

4 bay leaf

12 who peppercorns, black

4 who cloves

1 bun carrot

6 onion

1 Tbsp sugar

12 gingersnaps

salt & pepper

** Use beef chuck, rump, or round.

*** My notes: Watch meat while it sits and add more vinegar and water

(half of each) to keep meat covered. A similar recipe in Bon Appetit

used red vinegar and red wine for the marinade and the beef was left

in the refrigerator for about 9 days.

Wipe meat with damp cloth and then sprinkle thoroughly with salt and

pepper. Place meat in an earthen dish and add vinegar and enough water

to cover. Add the bay leaves, peppercorns and cloves, and let stand

tightly covered for 5 days in a cool place.

Cut carrots in strips; slice onions. Put meat in a dutch oven and

brown well on all sides. Add the carrots and onions and 1 cup of the

spiced vinegar. Cover tightly and cook over low flame about 3 hours or

until meat is tender. When meat is cooked, add the sugar and crumbled

ginger snaps and cook for 10 minutes. This makes delicious gravy. If

necessary, more of the spiced vinegar may be added.

SCHNITZEL A LA HOLSTEIN

Instructions:

Two - 4 ounces slices of veal, inside round

Salt and pepper

Flour for dredging

Egg wash for dipping-1 egg, beaten with 1/4 cup milk

Seasoned bread crumbs, for coating

Oil for pan frying

2 eggs

4 anchovies, rinsed

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 lemon, split

1 tablespoon chopped parsley

1 teaspoon capers, rinsed

Working with one piece of veal at a time, place the veal slice between

two large

pieces of plastic wrap. Using the flat side of a meat mallet, pound

the meat

until 1/4-inch thick, being careful not to make any tears in the meat.

Repeat

with the remaining piece of veal. Season the veal with salt and

pepper. Dredge

in the flour, shake off excess. Dip into the egg wash, allow excess to

drip off.

Coat in the bread crumbs.

Heat 3/4 cup of oil in a large skillet until very hot. Place the veal

pieces

into the oil. (A sign of a good schnitzel is when the breading

"bubbles" up

while pan frying.) Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and

cook until

golden. Remove and keep warm on a service platter. Remove the excess

oil from

the skillet.

Crack the eggs into the skillet, season and cook perfect sunny side up

eggs.

Place a cooked egg on top of each veal schnitzel. Criss cross the egg

with 2

anchovies each. In the same pan, brown the butter, squeeze in the

lemon juice,

SCHWENKBRATEN

Instructions:

Beef: roastbeef or T-bones - the beef should not be too fresh.

Pork: shoulder or rib - eye

Every piece should have among 350 and 500 gram and it should be cut

regular.

Spices: salt, pepper, onions, garlic

The meat should be prepared one night before eating. At first spice

the

meat with salt and pepper. Now peel the onions and cut them in rings.

Spice them with salt and pepper, too and press them in a little bit.

Put

the onions and the meat in sites. The last site is onions. The next

day

you start a big beech-wood-fire and burn it down until it's very hot.

Rearrange the onions now and put the meat on the grill. It should be

well done from both sides. The meat is ready after about 25 minutes

(it

depends on the weight). The meat is ready when it starts loosing juice

or when it is not compliant any more when you press it. Pork should be

done very well, beef can be done medium or English, just as you like

it.

As supplement we recommend green salad, fresh bread and grilled

potatoes. We wish a delicious meal.

The most important ingredient is very STRONG ONIONS otherwise it

doesn't

come out so well.

SHEPHERD'S PIE

Instructions:

Yield: 6 servings

1 lb Leftover roast beef

2 T Butter/margerine

1 c Onions; finely chopped

1/2 c Carrots; finely chopped

1/2 c Celery; finely chopped

2 T Parsley; finely chopped

3 T Flour

2 T Tomato paste

1/2 c Wine, white, dry

1 1/2 c Chicken stock

1 ts Worcestershire sauce

Pepper; to taste

1 c Corn kernels (fresh or

-frozen); cooked

2 c Potatoes, mashed

1/2 c Cheddar, sharp; grated

Cut the meat into 1/4" cubes. There should be about 3 cups. Set

aside. Heat the butter in a saucepan and add onions, carrots, celery

and parsley. Cook, stirring, until the onions are wilted. Sprinkle

with flour and stir with a wire whisk. Add the tomato paste, wine,

stock, Worcestershire sauce and pepper, stirring rapidly with the

whisk. Let simmer 10 minutes and stir in the cubed meat and the corn.

Cook 5 minutes longer.

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Put the meat and sauce in a seven-cup

baking dish or casserole. Outfit a pastry bag with a round pastry

tube--No. 7 or 8--and spoon mashed potatos into the bag. (No need

for this really. You can just spread the potatoes nicely with a

spoon/butter knife etc.) Pipe the potatoes neatly and evenly on top

of the meat mixture, covering it completely. Sprinkle evenly with

cheese and place the dish in the oven. Bake 30 to 45 minutes, or

until the dish is piping hot throughout and the cheese is melted. If

necessary, run the dish briefly under the broiler to glaze the top.

SHEPHERD'S PIE 1

Instructions:

Shepherd's Pie has been a favorite of mine (and several members of my

family) for as long as I can remember. It's sooooo

easy, give it a try and spring-board to add your own variations.

The original version is:

Use the leftovers from a roast beef, and place them in the bottom of a

baking dish (the size depends on how much leftovers

you have, how many people you're feeding, etc.).

Make mashed potatoes (again you must judge how much you'll need) and

place them directly on top of the beef. Bake in

the oven for about hour at 350 degrees, just until warmed through. You

can dot the top of the potatoes with butter for a

golden finish.

The updated version for people who want to eat the same day is:

Fry about 2 lbs. of hamburger with 1 chopped onion. Place in baking

dish. Make or use leftover mashed potatoes and place

them on top of the hamburger. Bake for hour at 350 degrees, just until

warmed through. Serve with gravy.

Simple variations:

Some people put the gravy over the hamburger

before

the potatoes go on.

Some people put corn or peas, whatever between the

hamburger and the potatoes.

In an effort to cut down on fat, I've tried using

turkey-burger instead of hamburger, we didn't care for it. It so

drastically changed the taste.

Some people use instant mashed potatoes for a

quick

dinner.

In our house we like garlic, so while I'm boiling

the potatoes for mashing, I throw a clove or two of garlic in the

water. When the potatoes are done, just mash

everything together, it ms a great way to add just a little more

flavor.

Tailor it to your taste and let me know how it comes out. It's pretty

simple and doesn't take too much prep time, especially

if you happen to have a lot of mashed potatoes leftover.

Some other suggestions (from a reader!) for Shepherd's Pie.

For singles, it's good to know that the hamburger version freezes

well.

I have made a pan (layered hamburger, cream-style

corn, mashed potatos) then frozen sectons in microwavable dishes and

can

just pop them into the microwave after a long day

at work. Or, if I think about it before, put one in the refrigerator

for

baking when I get home.

Some variations.

Try using a taco seasoning with the hamburger, or other favorite meat

seasonings, it certainly gives it a different favor.

When using meat seasonings, add vegetables or other ingredients that

compliment that seasoning, i.e. snow peas when using

teryaki sauce, shredded cheddar cheese when using the taco seasoning..

Add grated cheese to the mashed potatos.

THE BEST CHICKEN-FRIED STEAK SOUTH OF OMAHA

Ingredients:

salt, pepper, garlic

1 tbl adolfs meat tenderizer

1 can flat beer

flour

1 6 oz round stak cutlet, tenderized

Instructions:

Bill Maxwell, former Texas restaurateur, originally claimed his

chicken-fried steak was the "best found south of the Rio Brazos."

Subsequent chicken-fried steak contests proved him truthful, so he

extended his claim to include all lands south of the Arkansas River.

In another conversation with Bill, we found his "boundary" had crept

north to Omaha, Nebraska. Well, eventually he's gonna have to

stop at the North Pole ... we hope.

Sprinkle salt, pepper and garlic salt on both sides of tenderized

steak

to taste. Put steak onto a tray that is well-covered with flour.

Then "pound the hell out of it (the steak) with stiff fingers, working

from the center out, until it reaches the size of an L.P. record."

(That's those things they used to make before compact discs). Flip

several times and repeat pounding. Mix eggs, beer, 1 teaspoon salt

and Adolph's meat tenderizer in a shallow bowl. Add enough flour to

make

a thin, watery batter. Beat mixture smooth. Dip meat into

batter. "Flop" back onto flour tray and cover with flour. Pound again

with fingertips until moisture is absorbed. Cook in deep fat at

350 degrees until golden brown. Serve with French fries and cover with

white gravy.

MISS PIGGY'S WHITE GRAVY

Ingredients

1/2 cup meat grease*

1 1/2 cups flour

garlic salt

pepper

1 8 oz can evaporated milk

1 cup water

* Chicken fried pour-off with goodies left in is best.

Heat grease until smokey hot, stirring constantly, and add enough

flour

until heavy. Add garlic salt and pepper to taste (sparingly).

Brown sauce then turn to lower heat and add evaporated milk and water,

continuing to stir constantly to get rid of the lumps.

Cook to desired thickness.

The Oregonian, March 16, 1999

Adinner of corned beef and cabbage is a popular way to celebrate St.

Patrick's Day. Cooking corned beef is easy. Just put the meat into a

large

pan, add water to cover, then gently simmer until the meat is fork

tender.

Add vegetables, cook and dinner is ready.

Corning beef

Corning is a form of curing; it has nothing to do with corn. The name

comes

from the Anglo-Saxon times, long before refrigeration or, for that

matter,

the discovery of maize in the New World.

In those early days, the meat was dry-cured in coarse "corns" of salt.

Pellets of salt were rubbed into the beef to preserve it and keep it

from

spoiling. Today, brining -- using salt water, sugar, preservatives and

sometimes garlic and pickling spices -- has replaced the dry-salt

cure, but

the term "corned beef" is still used.

Storing corned beef

Uncooked corned beef is often packaged with pickling juices in a

pouch. If

it has a "sell-by" date, or no date, it may be be stored a maximum of

five

to seven days in the refrigerator, unopened. Products with a "use-by"

date

can be stored unopened in the refrigerator until that date.

Drained and well-wrapped, an uncooked corned beef may be frozen. For

best

quality, freeze only up to one month. The flavor and texture will

dimish

with prolonged freezing, but the product is still safe. After cooking,

corned beef may be refrigerated about three to four days and frozen

about

two to three months.

Cooking times

Because corned beef is made of less-tender cuts of beef -- such as the

brisket, rump or round -- it requires long, moist cooking. To cook on

top

of the stove, place meat, fat side up, with brine and spices in a

large

pot; cover it with water. Bring water to a boil; then reduce the heat

and

simmer covered, allowing 45 minutes to 1 hour per pound. Boiling does

not

hasten the cooking; it only makes the meat tough and dry.

If a spice packet is not included with the beef you buy, prepare a

bouquet

garni by wrapping spices in a cheesecloth package. For a 4-pound piece

of

corned beef, use 2 bay leaves, 2 teaspoons black peppercorns, 3 or 4

sprigs

fresh thyme or 1Ž2 teaspoon dried, 1Ž2 teaspoon mustard seed, and 2

whole

cloves. Or use 1 or 2 tablespoons of pickling spice. Place the spices

in

the center of a cheesecloth square and tie opposite corners. Place in

pot

while the corned beef is simmering; remove when beef is cooked.

Simmer the 4 pounds of meat slowly for 3 to 4 hours. Start checking

after

21Ž2 hours by piercing meat with a large, 2-tined fork. The fork

should

come out very easily; if not, continue simmering until it does. When

beef

is cooked, taste broth and, if not too salty, add potatoes, onion,

carrots

and carrots and cook until tender. Otherwise, steam the vegetables

separately.

To cook in the oven, place meat, fat side up, with brine and spices in

a

large casserole or a roasting pan. Barely cover the meat with water --

by

about 1 inch -- cover and place in a 325-degree oven; allow 1 hour

cooking

time per pound.

"Fork tender" is a good indication of doneness when baking corned

beef, but

use a meat thermometer to be sure. Cook until the internal temperature

has

reached at least 160 degrees. Other recipes call for simmering the

beef,

then baking in the oven.

Corned beef is still pinkish-red after cooking; this does not mean it

is

not cooked. The pink comes from the nitrite that is used in curing.

Advance cooking

You may prefer to cook the corned beef ahead of time. It is easier to

cut

uniform slices when the meat is cold. After cooking a whole corned

beef,

slice or cut it into several pieces for faster cooling. Place pieces

in

small, shallow containers to cool quickly in the refrigerator. Strain

the

broth and refrigerate it separately. Just before serving, cook

vegetables

in the broth.

To heat corned beef, place slices in a casserole, add about 1Ž2 cup

broth,

cover and heat in a 350-degree oven until piping hot.

WIENER SCHNITZEL 2

Instructions:

Copyright 1999, Hans Rockenwagner, All rights reserved

6 veal cutlets

1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Salt

1/2 to 1 cup all-purpose flour

2 eggs, lightly beaten with 2 tablespoons cold water

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 generous cup fine, dry bread crumbs

4 to 5 tablespoons butter

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Pound the veal cutlets to an

even, approximately 1/8-inch thickness, or have your butcher

do this for you. In a dish, sprinkle the cutlets with lemon

juice and let stand for 30 minutes. Season both sides with

salt. Place the flour on a flat plate, and place the egg/water

mixture in a wide, shallow bowl. Add the oil to the egg

mixture and beat in with a fork. Spread the bread crumbs on a

large plate. Dip the cutlets lightly into the flour, making

sure to coat all surfaces, then gently shake off the excess

flour. Dip the cutlets into the egg mixture, letting the

excess drip away, and then dredge them in the bread crumbs.

Let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes. Heat your

largest, heavy skillets over medium-high heat and add the

butter. When the butter is quite hot and the foam starts to

subside, add the veal (cook in batches if necessary - but

don't crowd them in the pan). If the butter browns too much

after cooking the first batch, you may need to discard it,

wipe out the pan, and add more butter for the next batch. Cook

for 4 to 6 minutes on each side, until golden brown, and turn

with a spatula (don't use a fork or tongs, or the breading may

be pierced). When the second side is golden, the schnitzels

should be cooked through. Transfer to a warm platter and keep

warm in a 250 degree oven while you cook the second batch, if

necessary.
