Baeckoefe

My 3 friends and I tried a lot of different dishes when travelling in Austria. Our policy was to always order something different – and never the same dish twice. This is a tasty meat and potato stew. I do forego the ‘pastry lid’ as I have a pretty good oven casserole dish and little steam escapes.

Sabine’s Farina Dumplings

I think I’ve tried every dumpling recipe on RecipeZaar in an effort to duplicate my friend’s soup. Yesterday, I “caught” her making them for her boys. Maybe the one-on-one lesson did the trick. Here is her “recipe”

Austrian Mushroom Soup

Fresh mushrooms cooked in homemade beef stock, enriched with sherry and garnished with chopped chives. An easy elegant first course dinner soup or lunch. No time to make stock? Use canned broth and add butter for an almost instant soup.

Warm Cabbage With Bacon and Thyme

Comfort food at it’s best! Sauteed green cabbage with apple, herbs, and white wine vinegar. Serve hot topped with crispy crumbled bacon. Delicious! Note: Use any green cabbage (Napa, green or Savoy cabbage) for this dish; adjust cooking times to suit.
