Beef Consommé

Julienne Vegetables

Savory Crepes

Method

Beef Consommé Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Rinse the beef bones under cold water to remove any impurities. Chop the carrot, celery, onion, and garlic into large chunks.

  2. 2

    Cook the Broth

    In a large pot, combine the beef bones, chopped vegetables, bay leaves, peppercorns, and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Skim off any foam that rises to the surface.

  3. 3

    Simmer

    Allow the broth to simmer for about 4-6 hours, covered, ensuring it doesn't boil vigorously. Add salt to taste towards the end of cooking.

  4. 4

    Strain the Broth

    Once the broth is ready, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve to remove solids. Return the clear broth to the pot and keep warm.

Julienne Vegetables Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Using a sharp knife, cut the carrot, celery, and zucchini into thin julienne strips.

  2. 6

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a small pot, bring a little water to a boil and blanch the julienned vegetables for about 2-3 minutes until just tender. Drain and set aside.

Savory Crepes Preparation

  1. 7

    Make the Crepe Batter

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Let the batter rest for about 30 minutes.

  2. 8

    Cook the Crepes

    In a non-stick skillet, melt a little butter over medium heat. Pour a ladleful of crepe batter into the skillet, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook until the edges lift, about 1-2 minutes, then flip and cook the other side for another minute. Repeat with remaining batter.

  3. 9

    Roll the Crepes

    Once cooked, remove the crepes from the skillet, let them cool slightly, and then roll them tightly. Slice into thin strips.

Final Assembly

  1. 10

    Serve the Dish

    In a bowl, ladle the warm beef consommé, add a handful of julienne vegetables, and top with the sliced crepe strips. Enjoy your traditional Viennese Frittatensuppe!
