OLD-WORLD SAUERBRATEN



Old-World Sauerbraten image

Meet the Cook: The secret to this sauerbraten is that it doesn't require marinating. I've been making it for 20 years now. It's an excellent family dinner, and you can also serve it to company along with potato pancakes, red cabbage and applesauce. My husband and I have three grown sons and a grandson. Cooking's my favorite hobby, but I'm an avid flea-market and antique shopper, too. -Phyllis Berenson, Cincinnati, Ohio

GERMAN SAUERBRATEN WITH SPICED APPLESAUCE CLAY COOKER



German Sauerbraten With Spiced Applesauce Clay Cooker image

The unglazed clay cooker really shines when you use it for less tender meats, such as the rump roast in this German favorite, spicy marinated Sauerbraten. With the sliced beef and shimmering sauce, serve noodles and Old Fashioned Spiced Applesauce. This is my favorite way of cooking. The Spiced Applesauce is delicious either as a simple dessert with cookies or as a side dish for German foods, such as Sauerbraten, this applesauce can be served either warm or chilled.
