Subject: German Potato Salad
Hi, I am looking for a recipe for German Potato Salad. After
the potato's are cooked they have hot chicken broth poured
over them and the potato's absorb all the broth, but I don't
know what the other ingredients are. Thank You in advance.

Hot German Potato Salad
Ingredients :
--Seasoning Mix:--
1 tsp. dry mustard
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. white pepper
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1/2 tsp. salt
20 unpeeled small red new potatoes
4 hard boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
8 slices bacon, diced
1 c. chopped onions
1/4 c. flour
1 c. chicken stock
3/4 c. distilled white vinegar
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. chopped green onion tops or
chives
Preparation :
Combine the seasoning mix ingredients thoroughly in a small bowl.
Makes 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons. (Continues on next page)
Cook the potatoes in a large pot of water until just tender (about 5
minutes from when the water starts to boil). Drain and cool under
cold running water. Slice the potatoes 1/4 inch thick and place in
a large bowl. Add the eggs and mix well. Set aside. Saute the
bacon in a skillet over high heat until browned, about 7 minutes.
Remove the bacon from the skillet with a slotted spoon and set
aside. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons bacon fat from the skillet
and set the skillet over high heat. Add the onions and cook,
scraping the bottom of the skillet occasionally, until the onions
are golden, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add all of the seasoning mix, and
then whisk in the flour. Slowly add the chicken stock, vinegar and
sugar, whisking constantly. Cook, whisking frequently, until the
mixture is thick, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Makes about 2 3/4 cups. Fold the sauce into the potato and egg
mixture, add the green onions and the cooked bacon, and combine
thoroughly. Best served warm but also good at room temperature.
Serves 8.

Hi Grandpa Matz,
Here's how to renew oil for one more frying:
1) After it cools from the first use, strain it through a coffee filter or
through a sieve or funnel lined with a double layer of cheesecloth. Then
cover it tightly and store it in the refigerator.
2) When you are ready to re-use it, fry a handful of parsley first for about
ten minutes. This will help remove the retained odors and tastes from the
first use.

Bonjour!
I am looking for a sugar pie recipe made with veal suet. My Meats
chef/instructor was waxing rhapsodic about it and I want to try to
make it for the class. Can you help?
Thank you!
Regina
Hi Regina,
Well, I tried. When I searched for "sugar pie", I got a few American
recipes with butter or margarine, and a ton of French Canadian brown sugar
pie recipes with butter. Searching on "sugar pie" + "veal suet" turned up nothing.
Hoping to narrow the search down so that I might find a truly French sugar pie recipe,
I searched on "tarte au sucre." Again, I got a ton of Quebec recipes for brown sugar pie,
but I also got some French sugar pie recipes, notably from Lyon and Calais. However, none
with veal suet. Finally, searching on "graisse de rognon de veau" turned up no sugar pie
recipes with that ingredient. All French sugar pie recipes that I found contained butter
as their fat.
So, I must confess failure on this one. Sorry I couldn't help.

Hi Aimee,
Swiss Chalet is confusing, because there are apparently at least two
different restaurant chains named "Swiss Chalet". One seems to be on the
West coast, and the other is based in Canada, with just a few locations in
the U.S. I'm sure this one is the one you know, because they have a location
in Rochester. However, there are four of them in New York: Rochester,
Orchard Park, Depew, and Amherst. They have a website that lists all their
locations at:
Swiss Chalet
I was actually able to find a copycat recipe for their dipping sauce, too.
See below.
Phaed
Swiss Chalet Sauce
3 c -Water
1/4 c Tomato juice
1 Chicken bouillon cube
1 1/2 ts Paprika
1 t Sugar, granulated
3/4 ts -Salt
1/4 ts Basil, dried
1/4 ts Parsley
1/4 ts Poultry seasoning
1/4 ts Thyme
1/4 ts Ginger, ground
1/4 ts Dry mustard
1/4 ts Onion powder
1 Bay leaf
3/4 ts Worcestershire sauce
6 dr Tabasco sauce
2 ts Lemon juice
1 tb Cornstarch
1 tb -Water
1 tb Vegetable oil
"This recipe..appeared in the Toronto Star many years ago as a result of a
contest to create a sauce similar to Swiss Chalet's barbecue sauce. Home
economist Kay Spicer created the winning recipe."
Swiss Chalet is a chain of Canadian chicken restaurants. This sauce is
brushed on the chicken before cooking and served at the table in small
containers to dip the chicken pieces in.
Pour cups of water and tomato juice into 1 1/2 qt saucepan. Add bouillon
cube, paprika, sugar, salt, basil, parsley, poultry seasoning, thyme,
ginger, mustard, onion powder, bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce and Tabasco.
Stir well or whisk to mix. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 5
minutes. Remove bay leaf. Stir in lemon juice.
Mix cornstarch and 1 Tbsp water to smooth paste. Add to mixture and cook,
stirring constantly, about 2 minutes until sauce thickens. Whisk in oil.
