Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Score fat side of pork roast in diamond pattern. Rub the entire roast all over with the oil, seasonings, and spoon on and spread the grainy mustard all over the top. Let stand for one hour.
  2. Spray your roasting pan with cooking spray. Place the vegetables into roasting pan and pour in beer. Place the roast in the roasting pan on top of the vegetables. Cover tightly and roast for one hour.
  3. Remove cover and continue roasting for another hour, uncovered, and check the temperature. It may need two hours, but mine was done earlier. It should be 140-160 (depends on how well-done you want the roast). It will continue cooking as it rests.
  4. Remove from oven and place on a large carving board; cover with foil and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and save the vegetables to serve on the side (or discard).
  5. Put some hot water in the pan with the juices, scraping up the bits and pieces. Add enough to make 2 cups. Make a roux by blending the flour and butter together very well in a saucepan; add the pan juices and bring to a simmer, whisking to blend well. For additional richness, the gravy may be finished with a little more butter, cream or sour cream. The gravy will be rich, dark and delicious.
  6. Slice the roast thinly and serve with the gravy. Refrigerate or freeze leftover slice
Recipe Notes

Save the bone to make a delicious bone broth.

Made it, but the roast I used had been chopped a bit - I cut off about 2 pounds for another recipe, so it was a little smaller.  And I made a simple beef gravy instead of this one, just because this was done early, and was sitting for a bit.

Check the meat after an hour - it should be 140F internal when you remove it - it will continue cooking when you take it out and cover it, end up about 145-150F, which is just done, not quite medium well.

Enjoy!

Instructions
  1. Cook the potatoes in their skins the day before or early in the day. Cool slightly and peel. Rice the potatoes (or mash if you don't have a ricer). Let them become totally cold, cover, and refrigerate several hours or overnight.
  2. Make croutons by cutting bread into cubes.
  3. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the bread cubes and fry, stirring frequently, until nicely browned on all sides. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  4. Mix into potatoes, 1 cup cornstarch, eggs and salt to make a dough that holds together when formed into dumplings. If the mixture is too moist, add a bit more cornstarch.
  5. Form 12 - 14 dumplings, approximately 2 inches in diameter, adding a few croutons to the middle of each dumpling.
  6. Drop gently into pot of boiling, salted water. Simmer gently, uncovered, about 15 - 20 minutes.
  7. Remove with slotted spoon and serve immediately.
Recipe Notes

https://www.quick-german-recipes.com/german-potato-dumplings.html

  • To keep the dumplings from sticking to your hands when you are forming them, you can either wet your hands with water, or dust your hands with flour. Either way works.
  • Test cook one dumpling to make sure it stays together, before you cook the rest. If it doesn't, you'll need to add a bit extra flour or liquid, depending on how sticky or dry your 'dough'
  • I don't really get the croutons in the center, but aside from that they were pretty good!  But I think next time we'll try something different in the center.

Instructions
  1. Slice the beef across the grain into thin strips. Salt and pepper the beef to taste.
  2. Melt half of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Brown the hamburger or sear the beef strips until browned on all sides. Remove from pan to a plate and set aside.
  4. Melt the remaining half of butter in the same skillet.
  5. Cooking the veggies: start with the onion, give them a couple of minutes to start turning a bit translucent, then add the garlic, give it all a stir or two, then add the mushrooms. The garlic shouldn't really take much longer than the mushrooms. Cook until it's all tender and smells amazing!
  6. Sprinkle the flour over the cooked vegetables in the skillet and stir for one minute.
  7. Turn the heat to low and whisk in the beef broth slowly.
  8. Allow the broth mixture to come to a simmer and thicken.
  9. Once the mixture has thickened, stir in the Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, paprika, and sour cream.
  10. Stir in the beef and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes.
  11. Serve over hot cooked egg noodles.
Recipe Notes

Steve wants more sour cream flavor, so we're going to add more sour cream, and I'm increasing the bits for the sauce - I think it needs more sauce!  I also think I was perhaps a bit anxious about getting dinner done - or maybe just hungry - so I didn't cook down the sauce enough, so we'll be working on that too.  Sorry, I'm horrible with timing stuff, and really, really good with just dumping ingredients in, but I'll try to document this one a bit better.

Hope you enjoy!

Instructions
  1. Add milk, egg and butter to bread machine pan.
  2. Add bread flour, 3 Tbsp sugar and salt to pan. Tap pan to settle dry ingredients, then level ingredients, pushing some of the mixture into corners.
  3. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients; add yeast. Lock pan into bread maker.
  4. Program for dough. Start bread maker. When done, unlock pan from bread maker. Place dough on floured surface. Knead dough about 1 minute, then let rest 15 minutes.
  5. Roll dough into a rectangle, about 15' x 10'. Spread 1/2 C melted butter over dough to within 1" of edges. Then sprinkle 1/4 C sugar and cinnamon evenly over dough. Roll dough up tightly on long side. Press edges to seal and form into a 12" long, evenly shaped roll. With a knife or thread of dental floss, cut roll into 1" pieces. Place rolls into greased 13" x 9" baking pan. Cover and let rise in warm, draft-free place until double in size, about 30-45 minutes.
  6. Bake in preheated 375F oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan on rack for 10-15 minutes.
  7. While cooling, make glaze by mixing confectioner's sugar with orange juice, stirring until smooth. While the rolls are still warm, drizzle glaze over top of rolls as evenly as possible. I left them in the pan, but you can cut them apart and remove from pan, whatever you prefer.

Instructions
  1. Divide butter into 2 portions, place 1 of these in a bowl or the upper part of a double boiler. Add the egg yolks and lemon juice, place over hot water (not boiling) and stir constantly until the butter is melted. Add the remaining butter and continue stirring, preferably with a wire whisk, until this butter also is melted. Add the hot water and cook, still stirring constantly, until thick. Remove from heat and season with salt and white pepper.
Recipe Notes

And I messed this one up too:  I melted the butter, whisking, with the egg yolk and lemon juice, but then I added the hot water and whisked until thick.  Or at least reduced...  Then I added the butter, and followed the rest of the instructions.  Still turned out great!  Though the lemon juice really stood out - maybe wouldn't be quite so strong if I'd done it the right way...
