What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Eat More: Beef and Noodles! I decided to take the day off from cooking so I tag-teamed with Le Creuset. All the ingredients went into the enameled cast iron French oven pretty much all day. This reliable way of slow-cooking gave me the opportunity to spend time ironing tea towels and perusing my towering stack of current magazines. As the day wound down, the mouth-watering aromas filled the air and before I knew it, dinner was ready. The roast had basted in its own juices to blend with the herbs, wine, and vegetables for delicious results. Now leftover recipes will be a breeze. Well done!
BEEF AND NOODLES
Ingredients:
3 pound sirloin tip roast, frozen
1 can beef consommé
1/2 cup ginger beer
1 tablespoon Hawaiian Rub*
8 ounces homestyle noodles
1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup red wine
1/4 cup cornstarch
Parsley sprigs
Instructions:
Place frozen sirloin roast in a Dutch oven with a lid. Add the can of beef consommé and ginger beer. Sprinkle Hawaiian Rub over roast. Cover. Put in oven and set the temperature to 225°. After six hours, add noodles and mushrooms. Bake covered 45 minutes longer. Remove pan from oven and ladle the roast drippings into a saucepan. It should be about 2 cups of liquid. Bring to a boil. Mix the red wine and cornstarch, stirring until smooth. Slowly stir into the roast drippings, stirring occasionally to prevent lumps. As gravy thickens, reduce heat to simmer. If necessary add water if it becomes too thick. Remove beef to a platter and shred, as needed. Return shredded beef to the noodle/mushroom mixture. Cover with gravy. Transfer to serving portions. Garnish each dish with parsley sprig.
* Hawaiian Rub is available from the Salty Wahine Gourmet Hawaiian Sea Salts company. I get no recompense for mentioning this product in my recipe.

Have you ever had a mound of mashed potatoes WITH beef and noodles ladled on top? It’s an Amish thing. 😜

I sure have, and you’re right! It is an Amish thing. I was fortunate enough to have been invited to dinner at a real Amish farm several times over the years. People I knew and did business with. Needless to say I ate well.

The thing about the Amish is this. They eat big meals sure. But they are very active AND their foods don’t contain the preservatives that our store bought stuff has. They eat starchy foods but they’re real foods.

I’ve noticed that. Thankfully I live near an Amish Market and take full advantage of it. I go crazy over their assortment of cheese, herbs, and spices, as you can imagine. 💕
