Beef in Bay Leaf Gravy Ready Time: 3 Hrs 30 Min "My grandmother, Margaret Pokorny, immigrated here from what was, then, the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This is one of her recipes which I have adapted for easier cooking. Serve with spaetzle and cucumber salad, and plenty of bread to sop up the gravy."

Bitkas Ready Time: 10 Hrs 30 Min "This is traditional Polish beef dish. I recommend to prepare it in the evening, do first heating, go to bed, and finish on the day after. Meat needs to be hammered thoroughly. The dish is time consuming, but all your guests will pronounce you the king of the cooks! My serving suggestion: Put some buckwheat cereals on 1/3 of the plate, 2 to 3 bitkas on next 1/3 of the plate, and pour some sauce over the cereals. Leave last 1/3 of the plate free for the vegetable salad of any kind. I like sour cabbage combined with carrots and apples. The meat just melts in your mouth, and you will hear the quiet sighs of contentment around the table. Suddenly all guests stop talking and they START EATING. The dish is rather spicy, (I do it medium, our kids are 10 and 8), but it leaves a very light sweetish taste afterwards on your tongue. The dish goes perfectly with cold beer, preferably lager. The kids get peach juice."
