This is an old Danish recipe from 1870 - 1880. Originally it was made of smoked fat instead of bacon and vinegar instead of Worcestershire sauce. Ingredients:
10 ounces smoked bacon |
1 lb cooled boiled potato |
4 teaspoons butter |
1 dash worcestershire sauce |
1/2 cup non-sweet beer |
2 teaspoons granulated sugar |
2 bay leaves |
8 -10 juniper berries |
salt and pepper |
finely-chopped parsley (for garnish) |
Directions:
1. Cut bacon into dices and the potatoes into slices.
2. Melt butter in a pot and add the sugar. Add bacon and fry until the meat is light brown.
3. Add the potatoes, beer, Worcestershire sauce and a little water and stir lightly. Add the bay leaves, juniper berries and a little salt and pepper. Let the stew simmer under cover for 20 minutes.
4. Season to taste with salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
