Feierstengszalot
Cold beef salad with egg, gherkins and mustard-cream dressing.

About Feierstengszalot
Anne describes Feierstengszalot as a traditional Luxembourgish way of using leftover cooked beef, recalling regular dinners at her grandmother’s home. Her supplied recipe begins with brisket and follows the family-style meat salad.
Luxembourgish mustard and white wine vinegar give the dressing a sharp edge, softened by cream and sunflower oil. Chives, parsley, pickled gherkins and cherry tomatoes add fresh and tangy notes.
Bite-sized beef joins chopped egg, tomatoes and gherkins beneath the dressing. The salad is served cold with crusty bread after time in the refrigerator to develop its flavour.
