How to make it
- In a large heavy-bottomed stockpot, combine the beef, 2 onions, 2 carrots, the celery, bay leaves, parsley and peppercorns.
- Add enough cold water to cover the beef by 3 inches and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and cover.
- Cook for 3 to 3 1/2 hours, turning 2 to 3 times.
- Cook until the beef is very tender, almost shredding when speared with a fork.
- Remove the meat from the pot and strain the broth into a large bowl. Discard the solids and return the meat and the strained broth to the pot.
- Add the mustard, remaining onions, carrots, cabbage and potatoes.
- Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer 50-60 minutes until all the vegetables are tender.
- Season the broth with salt and pepper if needed.
- Slice the beef into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
- Surround the meat with the vegetables, served whole. The broth should be served on the side with a ladle.
- Make sure to have deep plates with a lip so lots of broth can be poured over the meat and vegetables, or use shallow bowls.
- Serve with a warm loaf of country bread.
- To Make Horseradish Sauce:
- 1 c. heavy cream, whipped until thick
- 6 to 8 tbsp. prepared horseradish, drained (adjust amount for hotness)
- 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise (optional)
- Fold horseradish into whipped cream add mayonnaise. Chill until served. This sauce does not keep well, so make just enough to use at one serving.
