Ingredients
- 1.2 kg Tafelspitz
- 1 kg soup bones
- 1 parsley root
- 2 carrots
- 0.5 bulb celery
- 2 thin stalks leek
- 1 onion
- 1 tsp black peppercorns
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 tsp thyme
- 4 tbsp whipping cream
- 4 tbsp freshly grated horseradish
- 2 stale rolls
- salt
- 1 pinch raw cane sugar
- 0.5 bunch chives
Instructions
- 1. Place the soup bones in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil. Drain the water and rinse the bones thoroughly under running water. Return the bones to the pot and add 3 liters of fresh water. Bring the broth to a boil again.
- 2. Wash the meat and add it to the bones in the pot. Reduce the heat to low and let the meat simmer gently for about 2 hours. Skim off the rising foam regularly to keep the broth clear.
- 3. Clean the root vegetables and leek and cut them into coarse pieces. Peel the onion and halve it. Fry the onion halves in a hot pan without fat until golden brown on the cut side.
- 4. Add the prepared vegetables, leek, fried onion halves, spices, and peppercorns to the meat in the broth. Let everything simmer uncovered for approx. 1 hour. Check the cooking time: The meat is done when you can easily pierce it with a fork.
- 5. Remove the crust from the bread rolls. Soak the breadcrumbs with a ladle of warm beef broth in a small pot. Then puree the mixture until smooth using a hand blender.
- 6. Wash the horseradish, dry it, and peel it. Grate the horseradish finely and stir it into the breadcrumb sauce. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium heat.
- 7. Season the sauce with salt and whole cane sugar. Stir in the cream and let it infuse briefly.
- 8. Wash the chives, shake them dry, and cut them into fine rings. Carefully remove the meat from the broth.
- 9. Slice the meat across the grain into finger-thick slices. Strain the broth through a fine sieve into a clean pot and set it aside.
- 10. Arrange the meat slices on a large platter. Drizzle with some warm beef broth and add a dollop of horseradish sauce. Place boiled potato cubes alongside. Garnish the dish with chive rings and serve.
