Categories     dinner, main course

Time 4h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 large onion, halved horizontally but not peeled
3 large carrots, scrubbed
1 large parsnip, scrubbed
1 small celery root, scrubbed
2 celery stalks
1 leek, cut in half
1 pound beef bones
2 pieces beef triangle, each about 1 1/2 pounds
Sea salt
15 black peppercorns
2 bay leaves
4 cloves garlic, peeled
8 branches flat-leaf parsley
4 branches fresh dill
2 sprigs lovage (optional)
1/2 cup freshly grated horseradish
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and grated
Juice of one lemon
1/4 cup minced chives

Steps:

  • Char onion on cut side over open flame or by placing cut-side down in cast-iron skillet over high heat. Place in 16-quart stockpot with carrots, parsnip, celery root, celery, leek and beef bones. Add 8 quarts cold water. Bring to boil, and cook 10 minutes, skimming constantly. Add beef, allow to boil 5 minutes and skim.
  • Reduce heat to simmer, and cook, skimming from time to time, 1 hour. Add 1 tablespoon sea salt, peppercorns, bay leaves and garlic. Tie herbs together, and add. Continue simmering 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until meat is very tender.
  • While meat is cooking, mix horseradish and apple with lemon juice, and set aside.
  • Remove meat from pot, and cover with foil. Line large sieve or colander with cheesecloth or linen napkin, and place over very large bowl. Pour in contents of pot. Do not press liquid from vegetables. Transfer strained broth to 6-quart saucepan.
  • Set carrots, parsnip, celery root and celery stalks aside. Discard everything else. Peel and dice carrots, parsnip and celery root. Dice celery stalks. Set aside.
  • Gently reheat broth. Add salt to taste. Serve some of the broth as a first course, with diced celery root, parsnip and celery stalks. Then serve meat. If it needs to be reheated, steam briefly over remaining broth. Slice meat 1/2-inch thick across grain. Place in soup plates, with diced carrots, moisten with hot broth, and top with apple-horseradish, sea salt and chives. Serve.

AUSTRIAN TAFELSPITZ WITH APPLE-HORSERADISH SAUCE (EMPEROR'S BOILED BEEF)



Austrian Tafelspitz with Apple-Horseradish Sauce (Emperor's Boiled Beef) image

The Austrian emperor prior to the first World War ate Tafelspitz (boiled beef) for dinner every night. The boiling method yields itself to an inexpensive cut of beef, but I like to use a leaner cut of beef. The broth with the bones and vegetables has a depth of flavor worth the effort. The apple and horseradish sauce suits this beef beautifully. Serve with boiled vegetables. I like finger potatoes and baby carrots.

Yield Serves 4 to 6 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 52

Kavalierspitz
1 large onion, halved crosswise
Fine sea salt
1 large or 2 small "chicken steaks," from the chuck (about 4 1/2 pounds total), trimmed
5 veal marrowbones
6 baby carrots
4 baby turnips
4 small kohlrabi (see tips, below)
1 celery root, quartered
1 tablespoon juniper berries (see tips, below)
1 teaspoon allspice berries
Freshly ground black pepper
1 bay leaf, preferably fresh, cut in half
1 sprig fresh thyme
1 garlic clove
Spinach Puree
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 shallots, diced
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 sprig fresh thyme
3/4 cup vegetable stock or canned low-sodium vegetable broth
12 ounces (1 bunch) spinach, stems removed
Freshly ground white pepper
Cayenne pepper
Freshly grated nutmeg
Apple Horseradish Sauce
3 Golden Delicious apples (1 1/2 pounds)
Juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cinnamon stick, about 3 inches
1 whole clove
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish, or more to taste
Chive Mayonnaise
1 cup cubed white bread, crusts removed
3/4 cup whole milk
2 extra-large egg yolks
8 small cornichons, chopped
1 heaping tablespoon crème fraîche
1 heaping tablespoon sour cream
1/4 cup Champagne vinegar
1 1/2 cups canola oil
Fine sea salt and freshly ground white pepper
1 hard-cooked egg, finely diced
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
Optional Garnish
Freshly grated horseradish
Sliced fresh lovage leaves (see tips, below)
Freshly grated nutmeg
Fleur de sel (see Note)
Finely chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • 1. Heat a heavy sauté pan over high heat and add the onion halves, cut side down. Cook until they blacken on their cut sides, about 10 minutes.
  • 2. Fill a stockpot halfway with water and set it over high heat. When the water boils, salt it well, then add the meat, onions, and 2 of the marrowbones. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Partially cover the pot and bring the water to a very low simmer; it should bubble only slightly for the duration of the cooking time. Simmer for 3 hours, checking on the meat periodically, turning it occasionally and adding a little more water if necessary to keep the meat covered.
  • 3. Add the carrots, turnips, kohlrabi, celery root, juniper berries, allspice berries, pepper, and bay leaf. Simmer until the vegetables are cooked, 20 to 30 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the vegetables to a platter as they become tender. Continue to cook the meat until there is no resistance when it is pierced in its center with a long fork yet it still retains its shape, another 30 minutes.
  • 4. Place the remaining 3 marrowbones, marrow sides up, in a saucepan. Cover with cold water, and add the thyme and garlic. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat and let the bones poach until the marrow is translucent and soft, about 5 minutes. Drain the bones. Slide a paring knife around the inside of the hole to gently push the marrow free, and cut the marrow into 1/2-inch slices. Reheat the marrow in a 250°F oven or at a low setting in a microwave just before serving.
  • 5. Meanwhile, prepare the spinach puree: In a wide saucepan or sauté pan, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat. Let it cook until the white milk solids fall to the bottom and turn nut-brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the shallots and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and cook, stirring, until the shallots soften, 5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook for 2 more minutes.
  • 6. Add the cream and thyme to the pan and bring the liquid to a boil. Simmer until reduced by one third, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour in the vegetable stock and let the liquid return to a boil. Add the spinach and cook gently, stirring and tossing, until it is tender, about 2 minutes.
  • 7. Remove the thyme. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the spinach to a blender or food processor, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Puree the spinach, and season it with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, white pepper, a pinch of cayenne, and nutmeg to taste. If necessary, add some of the reserved cooking liquid so the puree is just loose enough to pour. Keep warm (or reheat gently before serving).
  • 8. Prepare the apple-horseradish sauce: Peel the apples, reserving the peels and submerging the apples in a bowl of water acidulated with the lemon juice.
  • 9. Place the apple peels in a small saucepan. Cover with 3/4 cup water and add the sugar, cinnamon stick, and clove. Bring to a boil and let simmer, stirring, until the sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the peels steep in the liquid until cool.
  • 10. Place the horseradish in a large bowl and grate the apples finely over it. Strain the apple-peel liquid, and pour 1/2 cup of the liquid over the grated apple. Toss to combine. and add more horseradish if desired. Set aside.
  • 11. To prepare the chive mayonnaise, place the bread cubes in a bowl and cover with the milk. Let soak until soft, about 20 minutes.
  • 12. Use your hands to squeeze the milk from the bread cubes, and place them in a blender with the egg yolks, 1/4 cup broth taken from the kavalierspitz, chopped cornichons, crème fraîche, and sour cream. Blend to combine. With the motor running, add a few drops of Champagne vinegar, then drizzle in a small amount of the canola oil in a very thin stream, processing until the oil is absorbed before adding a little more vinegar. Continue alternating vinegar and oil until you have used it all. The mixture should be of a thick but pourable consistency, and just slightly piquant. Season it to taste with salt and white pepper, and set it aside. Just before serving, stir in the hard-cooked egg and chives.
  • 13. When the beef is tender, transfer it to a platter and cover it with plastic wrap. Strain the broth through a fine-mesh strainer. If you're not going to serve it immediately, place the beef in a clean pot, cover with the strained broth, and surround with the baby vegetables. Heat gently just before serving.
  • 14. To serve, slice the steak across the grain into 2-inch-wide pieces. Lay them in the center of each soup plate, and garnish with the baby vegetables. Ladle the cooking liquid on top of and around the meat. Garnish with a slice of bone marrow, and any or all of the garnishes (freshly grated horseradish, lovage, grated nutmeg, a sprinkle of fleur de sel, chopped chives). Serve with the spinach puree, apple horseradish sauce, and chive mayonnaise on the side.
  • Chef Mario Lohninger shares his tips with Epicurious:
  • • "To elevate and refine this traditional dish, we paid close attention to every detail, using only the highest-quality ingredients and sophisticated techniques," says Lohninger. He prefers the Kavalierspitz, a tender cut from the shoulder, over the more common tafelspitz cut from the upper leg. "This was Kaiser Franz Josef's favorite cut," says Lohninger. "Because it has gelatin running through the middle, it stays very moist and juicy." Kavalierspitz is sold in the United States as Yankee steak or chicken steak, and you'll probably have to call ahead at a good butcher to get it. Beef cheeks or short ribs could also be substituted.
  • • "The garnishes in this recipe are very authentic," says Lohninger. "But if you're pressed for time, you can substitute unsweetened store bought applesauce mixed with a little horseradish for the applesauce recipe here, and sour cream mixed with chives for the white sauce. But in my opinion, you need the creamed spinach - or a cabbage dish - to really feel like you're having boiled beef.".
  • • Purple-black, pea-sized juniper berries are the flavoring in gin, so you'll recognize their piney-sweet flavor. In Austrian cooking they are added to everything from cabbage to meat. They're generally available in the spice section of better supermarkets. Look for berries that are still somewhat soft rather than hard and shriveled.
  • • Kohlrabi are bulbous, green vegetables, sometimes tinged with purple, that are popular in Austrian cooking for their crisp, nutty, white flesh, similar to a mild turnip. Lovage is a celerylike vegetable. A mix of parsley and celery leaves can be substituted for the lovage leaves.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 3h20m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 lbs beef chuck
beef bone
2 teaspoons salt
6 peppercorns
bouquet garni
2 carrots
2 stalks celery
1 leek
2 onions
2 cups white breadcrumbs, very fine
4 hard cooked egg yolks
1/2 cup olive oil
salt and pepper
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon vinegar
2 tablespoons chives, minced

Steps:

  • Put beef and bones into a soup pot and add water to cover.
  • Add salt, peppercorns and cleaned vegetables.
  • Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer about 3 hours or until beef is tender, but not falling apart.
  • Strain the bouillon and season to taste with salt, white pepper and nutmeg.
  • Save and serve as first course.
  • Slice beef and vegetables and serve with plain horseradish, apple-horseradish sauce or Chive Sauce.
  • To make the Chive Sauce, Soak bread crumbs in cold water then squeeze dry.
  • Combine bread crumbs and egg yolks in Cuisinart.
  • Add olive oil a little at a time.
  • Season with salt, pepper, sugar and vinegar.
  • Add chives and mix well.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef. The best cuts for boiling are those that are tough and have a lot of connective tissue, such as chuck roast, brisket, or short ribs. These cuts will become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly in liquid.
  • Brown the beef before boiling. Browning the beef adds flavor and color to the dish. To brown the beef, heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides.
  • Add vegetables and herbs to the pot. Vegetables and herbs add flavor and depth to the broth. Common vegetables used in boiled beef dishes include carrots, celery, onions, and garlic. Common herbs used include parsley, thyme, and bay leaves.
  • Cover the pot and simmer the beef. Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer the beef for several hours, or until it is tender. The cooking time will vary depending on the cut of beef and the size of the pieces.
  • Serve the beef with horseradish sauce. Horseradish sauce is a traditional accompaniment to boiled beef. To make horseradish sauce, mix together grated horseradish, sour cream, mayonnaise, and lemon juice. Season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper.

Conclusion:

Boiled beef with horseradish sauce is a classic dish that is both flavorful and comforting. It is a great meal for a cold winter day. The beef is tender and juicy, and the horseradish sauce adds a nice kick. This dish is also relatively easy to make, and it can be tailored to your own taste preferences. For example, you can add different vegetables to the pot, or you can adjust the amount of horseradish in the sauce. So next time you are looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give boiled beef with horseradish sauce a try.
