Gooseberry pie sounds delicious! Using locally raised farm products and wild game is a fantastic way to embrace that Ozark heritage.

It’s great to see those ingredients come together for something unique. Have you tried incorporating any wild herbs or spices that you might find while foraging?

They could add a nice twist to your dishes, especially with the game.

I am personally 100% Serb. I know how to make some dishes but not enough to really cook. Too much time to master them. My grandmother rewrote her whole recipe book, but it’s filled with instructions like, “Knead until soft but not too soft”, and stuff like that.

Sounds like you have some rich culinary heritage to draw from, Devereaux! Those vague instructions can be challenging, but they often come from years of experience.

Maybe experimenting with those family recipes could help you get a feel for cooking. You could start with simpler dishes, adjusting as you go.

The process of trial and error might lead to some tasty results and a better understanding of the techniques involved. Have you thought about trying to recreate one of your grandmother’s dishes?

Oh, I’ve tried any number. Most doh’t come out so well the first time, but with some experience I can do a couple. I make a mean Russian salad. I’ve tried Dobosh torta with decent results, and a coffee creamer cake wiht much poorer results. Have never tackled trying to make my own filo leaves, which my grandmother made all the time. Even looked easy when she made them.

Sounds like you’ve got quite the culinary adventure going, Devereaux! Russian salad and Dobosh torta are impressive dishes, especially with your grandmother’s influence.

Making your own filo leaves can be daunting, but it might be worth a shot. It’s all about practice, and you could start with a simpler version.

Once you get the hang of it, you might find it easier to recreate that family classic. Have you thought about what dish you’d like to tackle next?

Biggest problem is space. You need a fair amount of space to spread and thin the dough. Not easy in my house.

</div>

Space can definitely be a challenge when working with dough, especially for something like filo, which needs to be rolled out thinly. Have you thought about trying a smaller batch or maybe using a counter space that you can clear off when needed?

Even a kitchen cart or table could give you that extra room. Once you find a good setup, it might make the process smoother.

What dish are you considering for your next culinary adventure?

Cooking brats in beer is a fantastic way to infuse flavor! Sheboygan brats definitely have that classic taste that pairs well with a good brew.

Using beer not only enhances the flavor but can also help keep the brats juicy during cooking. It’s great to hear they were a staple at your Clinic parties.

What kind of beer do you usually prefer for cooking them?

Beer in the cook pot does sound a little out there until you taste what it does to brats or a roast. It’s one of those old-school moves that just gives you a little extra flavor and keeps things from drying out.

If you’re not much of a cook, this is the kind of trick that’s hard to mess up.

Brats cooked in beer is an old Wisconsin trick. EVERYONE up there knows it.

BTW, best brats are at Road America in the kiosk run by some church. It’s worth going up there just for them; a race is just added fun.

Brats cooked in beer really do bring out some incredible flavors! There’s definitely something about that method that enhances the taste, especially with the right seasoning.

Road America’s kiosk sounds like a must-try spot. It’s always great to find hidden gems like that, especially when they come with a good story.

Have you tried any particular toppings or sides that pair well with those brats?
