How To Make TAFELSPITZ: The Classic Austrian Way

beef

🥗Healthier: lean cuts of beef

💰Cheaper: pork

Lean cuts reduce fat content while maintaining flavor.

horseradish

🥗Healthier: wasabi

💰Cheaper: prepared horseradish

Wasabi offers a similar heat with fewer calories.

Roast beef bones at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes.

Cut onions in half, leaving the skins on, and roast them in a cast iron pan until blackened.

Add tri-tip beef to the pot with roasted bones and blackened onions.

Fill the pot three-quarters with cool water and bring to a rolling boil.

Add bay leaves, garlic cloves, juniper berries, black peppercorn, mustard seed, and sea salt to the pot.

Add carrots, parsnips, and celery root to the pot.

Skim the scum that forms on top of the boiling broth.

Reduce heat to simmer and cover the pot for about an hour and a half.

Remove the beef and strain out the solids, saving the broth.

Return the beef to the broth and add finishing vegetables and herbs before serving.
