Brats Cream of Mushroom and Saurkraut

[Mad Dr Jeffe]

Yep thats dinner, and its mmm mmm good...

Saint can tell you how my cream of mushroom turns out... he's made it with me at college. Nothing draws college women to the kitchen like so many flies as a good cook in a dorm kitchen on a Saturday morning after the Cafeteria has closed untill the evening. Our massive meal for 2 became a meal for at least 15.  Thats what happens when you make a gallon of cream of mushroom soup and serve it with sirloin steaks.

As for Brats, Im of 2 minds about them,... on the one hand they really should be boiled in broth, beer Saurkraut or a combination of all three. Grilled is however an acceptable substitution. And thanks to the portableness of Mr. George Foremans amazing machine Grilled Brats I am eating...

mmmmmmmmmmmm

I almost always grill my brats. Boiled things, just don't taste right to me outside of pasta and soup.

And please share your cream of mushroom recipe.

The reason most boiled things taste bad is that people boil them in the wrong things.



Heres a smaller serving size
Wash and peel a 3 quarts of fresh mushrooms and fry in a cup of melted butter with some fresh roasted garlic and onion powder then add 2 quarts of veal stock (chicken in a pinch)  rub a table spoonful of flour and butter together until smooth, stir it into a pint of rich cream (whipping or heavy cream are ideal, and stir until smooth; add it to the soup, season with salt and pepper, let it boil up, and serve with fresh crumbled bacon chopped scallions and fresh cheese sprinkled on top.
