* Exported from MasterCook * Brisket (Bev's from childhood memories) Recipe By : Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Volume 3, Dec. '98 Beef Carrots Ethnic Holidays Main Dishes Onions Potatoes Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 3 lb beef brisket -- (3 to 4) 1 envelope Lipton Onion Soup Mix (you may add more at -- step #6) several large onions sliced 1 bay leaf carrots sliced potatoes cut into chunks water to partially cover vegetable oil or canola oil (do not use olive oil) Brisket has become one of the most, if not the most, popular Chanukah dish, even though there is no religious significance to it's choice. it just goes so well with latkes. I prefer browning the meat first, and also sauteing the onions first as well, to bring out the flavor. This is my version, and there are no exact amounts. Slice as many onions as you like, and add as many carrots and potatoes as you like. 1. Preheat oven or slow cooker such as a Nesco to 350 degrees. 2. Add a little oil to a pot or fry pan, saute sliced onions on top of the stove until golden, not brown. remove from pan, and put in bottom of baking dish large enough to hold all the ingredients, or the pan of the Nesco. 3. Brown the brisket in a bit of oil in the same pan you used for the onions (why dirty another pot?) remove from pan and put on top of the onions. 4. Add enough water to cover the brisket about 1/2 or 3/4 of the way to the top. 5. sprinkle the packet of Lipton Onion Soup Mix on top of the brisket, and in the water. add a bay leaf if you have it or remember to. it adds a nice flavor to the mixture, but if you forget or don't have it, don't worry, it will still be delicious. 6. Bake at 350 for about an hour, taste for seasonings. if you want to add salt and pepper do so, or part of another packet of soup mix do so, but be sparing with the salt if you add the soup mix. 7. after about an hour of cooking the beef, add the sliced carrots, and the potatoes, and cook until everything is tender. usually about another 1/2 hour to 45 minutes. 8. Cool about 15 minutes, and SLICE THE MEAT AGAINST THE GRAIN. otherwise you'll have stringy slices. serves about 6 to 8 people, or just Steve and me....LOL 9. The next day, the brisket is delicious served on bread with mayonnaise. Helmann's of course :-) NOTE: this freezes well, though sometimes the potatoes are a little different texture. I suggest you eat the potatoes with another meal instead of freezing them. Posted to FareShare 12-98 by Beverly <bevmed@ingress.com> - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

* Exported from MasterCook * Brussels Sprouts With Gewurztraminer And Caraway Sauce Recipe By : Jimmy Schmitz - Detroit, MI 1998 Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:20 Categories : Vegetables Volume 3, Dec. '98 Side Dishes Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- Boiling salted water 1 1/2 pounds brussels sprouts -- medium prepared 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 cup diced shallots or red onions 2 cups Gewurztraminer or Riesling wine 1 cup heavy cream 2 teaspoons whole caraway seeds -- toasted slightly to release their flavor Salt and freshly ground black pepper 1/2 cup snipped fresh chives PREP SPROUTS: Rinse. Trim bases and loose outer leaves; and an "X" cut 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep in each base. In a medium pot of boiling salted water, add the brussels sprouts. Cook until al dente, tender yet firm to the bite, about 4 to 5 minutes for medium-size sprouts. Drain in a colander and cool under cold running water. Cut into halves or quarters if large. Reserve while making the sauce. In a large saute pan, heat the butter over high heat. Add the shallots and cook until tender and beginning to brown on the edges, about 4 minutes. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, about 8 minutes. Add cream and caraway seeds and cook until reduced and thickened enough to lightly coat the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes. Add the brussels sprouts and season generously with salt and pepper. Cook until the sauce is reduced enough to coat the brussels sprouts nicely, about 3 minutes. Mix in half of the chives. Transfer to a warm serving dish, top with the remaining chives and serve.
