SOUR BEEF AND DUMPLINGS (SAUERBRATEN)
This is classic German food and one of the best cold-weather meals ever. Pair with a good German beer, some dark bread and a salad. Note that to do this right, you need to marinate it for at least three days. The dumplings here aren't exactly like my grandmother used to make. This is still a German potato dumpling recipe, but it includes farina (Cream of Wheat). I find that the farina adds a nice flavor, and it makes for easier dumplings that are less likely to come apart while cooking.

Steps:
- First, make the marinade: In a large saucepan over high heat, combine the vinegars, 3 cups of water, onion, carrot, 1 tablespoon of salt, pepper, bay leaves, cloves, juniper berries and mustard seeds. Cover and bring to a boil, and then lower the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Set it aside and let it cool. Heat the vegetable oil in a large saute pan. Rub the beef roast with 1 teaspoon of salt and brown it on all sides. Once the marinade has cooled to the touch, put the meat into a large, nonreactive vessel and cover with the marinade. (I use a ceramic-coated Dutch oven.) Place it in the refrigerator for three to five days. If the meat isn't covered entirely by the marinade, be sure to turn it once a day. (In my Dutch oven, I sometimes wedge an onion between the lid and the meat to hold the meat under the liquid.) After marinating, preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Add the sugar to the meat and marinade, cover and cook in the oven until tender--approximately four hours. While it's cooking, you'll want to start making the dumplings (below). When the meat is done, remove it from the pan and keep warm. Move the Dutch oven to the stovetop, whisk the crumbled gingersnaps into the marinade, and simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is smooth and well blended. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve to remove any lumps. TIP: To crumble the gingersnaps, I usually put them into a freezer bag, squeeze the air out and give it to the nearest child to pound on until there aren't any more lumps. Slice the beef and serve in a large bowl or platter covered in the sauce. Serve the dumplings on the side. Generally each diner puts some beef and a couple of dumplings on their plate, and then spoons the sauce over all. To make the dumplings: Heat the water and 1 teaspoon of salt to a heavy simmer in a 5-quart Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Add the quartered potatoes and cook until tender, about 15 or 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes very well, and mash them or put them through a potato ricer. (A ricer works best.) Spread the riced potatoes on a platter or cookie sheet and set them aside to dry and cool. After the potatoes have cooled, place them in a mixing bowl and add the eggs, grated fresh potatoes, farina, flour and nutmeg. Mix well, and roll into golf-ball or tennis-ball sized dumplings. (Mine tend to be tennis balls or racquetballs. I like big dumplings and I cannot lie.) Roll the dumplings in a little bit of flour to help them dry on the outside and not stick. Bring a large pot of water to boil and then reduce to a heavy simmer. Cook the balls for 15 to 20 minutes. They should all be floating when they are done. Drain and serve on a platter.

Steps:
- WARNING: This part has to be done the day before you want to serve. Stir together all of the marinade ingredients in a nonreactive bowl. Place the roast in a nonreactive container (or large ziplock bag) and marinate overnight. The day before is also a good time to make the gingersnaps if, like me, you are using homemade.
- The next day: Remove the meat and pour the marinade in the slow cooker. In a large skillet, quickly brown all sides of the meat in the canola oil. Add the meat into the slow cooker and turn on low for 6 hours.
- During the last hour or so of cooking time: Start to make the dumplings. Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. In a large bowl, combine the cooled mashed potatoes and salt and the egg. Stir in the baking powder and add the flour in 1/2 cup increments until the it resembles a dough and the mixture holds its shape when molded (roughly 3 cups). Form into 2 to 4 inch balls. They should be able to hold their shape but not be too floury. Drop them into the water. They should sink, then rise to the surface when cooked through. Set aside.
- During the last 1/2 hour of cooking time: Skim off any visible fat that may have risen to the top then add the gingersnaps and turn the heat to high.
- After the time is up, shred the meat a bit with a fork or break it into pieces. Serve hot, with dumplings on the side.
