MUSMEHLMUS (WHOLE WHEAT MUSH)

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories :
Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 1/2 l Milk (1 1/2 qt)
200 g Musmehl flour (7 oz) (a
-coarsely ground wheat
-flour,
In olden times, spelt flour,
-from which only
Part of the bran has been
-removed)
2 sl Rye bread, cubed
50 g Butter (3 1/2 Tbsp)

From grandmother’s more thrifty times; rarely encountered today.

Bring the milk to a boil. Stirring constantly, add the Musmehl flour. Keep
at a low boil for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring constantly. When ready to
serve, with a spoon carefully pour the melted butter over the mush (which
should already have formed a skin), and put the ryebread cubes on top. The
mush tastes best when eaten from a copper skillet, and must have a
‘Schuepet’ [browned crust on the bottom].

Serves 4.

  • Title: SOUPA PATSAS (TRIPE SOUP)
    Categories: Soups, Greek
    Yield: 6 servings

    2 lb Honeycomb tripe
    8 ea Lamb’s feet
    6 cl Garlic (opt.) or to taste
    Coarse salt
    3 ea Eggs
    2 ea Lemons, juice only
    Pepper to taste
    Vinegar (opt.)
    Oil (opt.)

    Clean, scrape, and wash the tripe and feet. Scald
    in boiling water; cool. Cut the tripe into small
    pieces, place in a large pot with the feet, cover with
    plenty of water; bring to a boil, skimming off the
    froth as it rises. Lower the heat. Add the garlic,
    and cook at a slow boil for 1 to 2 hrs., adding a
    little coarse salt just before the meat is tender.
    Remove the pot from the heat; strain the broth and
    reserve. Remove and discard the bones from the feet;
    cut the meat into 3 or 4 pcs.; return to the broth.

    Prepare the avgolemono as follows: Beat the eggs
    very well. Slowly add the lemon juice to them,
    beating all the while. Add a little hot broth from
    the pot, stirring constatly, then pour the mixture
    back into the soup. Add pepper just before serving.

    NOTE: This soup, very light in color, can be
    served not only hot but cold. For the latter, let it
    jell, then cut into squares or diamonds for serving.
    When it is served hot, some people prefer it mixed
    with oil and vinegar, instead in avgolemono.
