Cooking, German
Preparation: The rib bones are partly chopped through and the whole
piece of meat bound with string, then boiled slowly in 3 qts. of
boiling water, salt and soup greens. When done, put on a hot platter. A
mustard or morel gravy is nice with it. The remnant of bouillon is
used to cook vegetables in or for soup.
No. 11—MUTTON STEW WITH WHITE CABBAGE.
Quantity for 6 Persons.
4 lbs. of lean mutton
1 large head of white cabbage
2 tbsps. of butter
Water
Salt
Preparation: The cabbage is cut into 12 parts and put on the fire with
boiling water, then cooked for 10 minutes. The water is then drained
off and fresh boiling water put on. The meat is washed and salted, put
in and cooked with the cabbage slowly for 2½ hours. Then it is served
on a hot platter. The cabbage must not have too much gravy. If it is
not rich enough, add more butter. Serve it with the meat and potatoes.
No. 12—MUTTON STEAK.
Quantity for 6 Persons.
4 lbs. of mutton chops or cutlets
1 piece of butter
Salt, pepper
Preparation: The cutlets are pounded well, and the bones all trimmed
out. A pan is larded with some mutton fat and heated. The meat is put
in and fried on the stove ¼ hour, turning it over often. Serve on a
hot platter, salt and pepper, and butter. A peppermint sauce, as in
No. 1, is good with this meat.
No. 13—MUTTON CUTLETS OR CHOPS.
Quantity for 6 Persons.
4 lbs. of mutton chops
⅛ lb. of butter
Salt, pepper
½ cup of water
Preparation: The real cutlet piece is the loin with the upper ends of
the ribs. Every cutlet must have a rib and be one inch thick. They are
pounded, skinned and the fat cut off, salted and peppered. The butter
is melted in a pan and the cutlets put in and fried 3 to 5 minutes.
Then they are served on a hot platter. For gravy pour some hot water
or bouillon into the frying butter and perhaps a little more salt.
Pour the gravy over the cutlets and serve hot.
No. 14—MUTTON CUTLETS BROILED.
Quantity for 6 Persons.
4 lbs. of mutton chops
1 piece of fresh butter
Salt, pepper
Preparation: The cutlets are pounded and placed on a broiler 5
minutes, turning them once; placed on a hot platter, seasoned with
salt and pepper, buttered and served at once.
No. 15—BROILED BREADED MUTTON CHOPS.
Quantity for 6 Persons.
4 lbs. mutton chops
Salt, pepper
1 cup grated rolls
3 tbsps. of Parmesan cheese
⅛ lb. of butter
Preparation: Trim off the skin and fat, pound, salt and pepper the
cutlets. Heat some butter and dip each cutlet into it, then into a
mixture of roll crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Now broil to a light brown
on a broiler, which requires 5 minutes. Serve on a hot platter and
pour the rest of the melted butter over them.
Remarks: You can also fry the cutlets in a pan; then you need an
additional ⅛ lb. of butter.
