chattius 2,529 Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 I always waited for this: Our state is full of springs with mineral water. Best known is probably the nearby Selters or how it is written in english Seltzer. Also a long history in our state is to marinate beef, mainly with milk acid bacteria. But as our name Sauerbraten says: the result is sour. I use to do my own marinate made from fruit wines, dried herbs and fruits, ... But I want the sour taste to make the taste of wild boars less strong. But steaks are different. You want them soft but not sour. So a butcher tried marinating without the sour tasting testing several slightly acid mineral waters from local springs. Finding the right water was hardest he said. It needs the right mix of minerals and acid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKhQBU106eY 1 Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I've never seen this technique before Chattius, didn't even know it was possible! I wonder what it tastes like? gogo Link to comment
chattius 2,529 Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 The only one who tried it yet in my family is my younger sister. A restaurant in Hamburg serves it and she said it is great. My restaurant owning friend will try it if their is more request. The raw steaks from food supplier for restaurants are at 44Euro for 2 pounds. 1 Link to comment
gogoblender 3,071 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 44 Euro? Meat is expensive! gogo Link to comment
chattius 2,529 Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 Well with fast growing ever hungry kids who are more gourmands than gourmets I think serving it at home would be a waste 1 Link to comment
