preparation
Meat:
- Clean the meat, parry and dry well with kitchen paper.
- In a large saucepan fry the meat in the butter lard around it.
- Add so much water until the meat is barely covered, so I had about 3 L of water.
- Once the whole thing now boil, then let lid on it and even at the lowest level.
- The water should not boil or boil, but stay just below the boiling point about 90-95 ° C. With a meat thermometer you can pretty much determine it.
- Clean the soup greens, clean them and chop them roughly.
- Peel 2 onions and dice roughly.
- Cut 1 onion with the bowl in the middle and roast on a correspondingly large piece of aluminum foil without adding fat on the stove. Be careful, it is very fast.
- Prepare the spices.

- Heat the base with the cream in a large saucepan and bring to a boil for about 15 minutes.
- Gradually add the toast cubes and stir until they have dissolved. The sauce gets through the toast bread cubes a nice bond.
- Add the horseradish to the sauce one tablespoon at a time and cook for about 10 minutes. The amount of horseradish can each decide for themselves, we love it vigorously.
- Season with white pepper, salt and lemon juice to taste, remove from the heat and alloy with the egg yolk.
- Get the meat from the broth.
- Fish out the corresponding piece of vegetables.
- Cut the boiled beef against the fiber and serve with boiled potatoes, horseradish sauce and some pieces of vegetables.
P.S. Pass the broth / boiled beef from the boiled beef through a sieve. I have frozen these in about 500 ml containers for sauce or risotto bases.
