A delicious mushroom dish for any occasion!
Game meat loses its austere pleasant taste through a pickle of buttermilk, spices, the coarsely chopped root vegetables and red wine.
After three days, remove the leg of elk from the marinade. Sear it in a saucepan together with the root vegetables. Fill up with boiled game broth.
After a few minutes, steam the roast for 1, 5-2 hours at 200 °C.
Mushroom garnish: Sauté mushrooms in butter with a little salt and pepper. The leek gives the mushrooms additional flavor.
Stuffed pears: Remove the skin from the pears, cut them in half and blanch them, i.e. put them briefly into boiling water, then quench them in iced water. Add a little sugar and juice of one lemon to the boiling water beforehand.
To finish: Fill pears with cranberry cream made from cranberries and whipped cream.
The chef of the Wacholderschenke in Hildburghausen recommends a dry red wine with it.
