    Honey would change the consistency a bit, but careful
    adapting would make it work.
    About what I figured.

    To me, honey has somewhat different characteristics
    than even the thickest syrup, so I'd have to be
    extra careful or at least thoughtful in the adaptation.

    Might have to try it. I've made apple butter, peach butter and sweet potato butter at various times so a mixed fruit one sounds just as
    good.
    If you have extra odd bits of fruit, why not.
    Right now we've got some SC peaches in the fridge, bananas on the
    counter and mangoes in the hanging basket. The combo would make a good
    fresh fruit salsa but not a butter.

    I could see a peach butter (waste of peaches unless they
    were second-rate) and a banana butter, but not a peach-and-
    banana butter.

    Title: Boiled Red Cabbage
    Somewhat different from the way I do red cabbage; I use a recipe from a Bavarian cook book Steve was given when he had a TDY assignment in
    Augsburg.

    I've made braised red cabbage a bunch of times, never
    using a recipe, but it's ended up tasting right every
    time (also, it depends on what else the meal consists of).

    endangered animals, to the degree that there are
    now wildlife tours of the zone. We'll see how long
    the North Koreans can refrain from causing trouble.
    Interesting, that neveer happened in the No Man's Land with the Berlin
    wall.

    The area around the Berlin wall was narrow, urban, deforested,
    and uninteresting. The DMZ is over 2 miles wide.

    Hambak Steak
    categories: Korean, Japanese, Salisbury, German, hambagu, main, beef
    Serves: 4

    2/3 lb ground beef
    2/3 lb ground pork
    1 sm onion, minced
    1 Tb butter
    1 egg
    1/2 c Panko breadcrumbs
    4 Tb milk
    1/2 ts nutmeg
    salt and pepper to taste
    2 Tb oil
    4 Fried eggs for topping, opt
    h - For the sauce
    1/2 c red wine
    1/2 c beef stock
    1/4 c ketchup
    2 Tb Worcestershire sauce
    2 Tb Heinz 57 or A1

    In a skillet over medium heat, wolt onion in
    butter until golden and soft.

    Combine beef, pork, sauted onion, egg, Panko,
    milk, and nutmeg; season. Mix everything well
    with your hand. Take 1/4 and form into a patty,
    then throw it forcefully from one palm of your
    hand to the other several times as if you are
    hitting the patty. This will improve the
    texture of the patty and help it hold its
    shape during the cooking. Repeat with the rest
    of the patties. Make an indentation with your
    finger in the patties in the center.

    Heat skillet over medium heat, add some oil,
    and drop the patties to sear the outside, 2 min
    per side. Then reduce the heat to low and
    continue to cook. You can cover with a lid
    leaving a crack for the steam to escape. This
    will ensure to cook the patties all the way.
    Remove the patties to a plate and keep warm.

    To make the sauce; raise the heat under the
    skillet, and deglaze with the red wine. Let the
    wine reduce in half. Add the stock, ketchup,
    Worcestershire, and steak sauce. reduce the
    heat to low and let the sauce simmer to thicken.

    Drizzle the sauce over your steak and top with a
    fried egg if you wish. Serve with steamed rice
    and vegetable or salad.

    Hi Michael,

    extra careful or at least thoughtful in the adaptation.

    I know you have to cut other liquids by about a quarter cup (or increase
    some of the dry ingredients but I forget by how much. There are other
    tweaks that have to be made as well.

    No, neither can I. Don't actually see a banana butter but a mango one
    would probably be tasty.

    I usually make it to go with sauerbraten. Seems like every fall, when
    the weather turns cool, I make it---with extras going into the freezer
    for enjoying later on, without a lot of fuss.

    Berlin Wall went around the city but there was another barrier between
    East and West Germany. I don't know how wide the No Man's Land was in
    other areas but there was probably a good bit of fencing, at least, in
    other than urban areas. Probably some wildlife in those areas also.
