Schnitzel
Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds veal cutlet, boneless (4 pieces)*
Salt & Pepper to taste
1/2 cup all purpose flour
2 eggs
2 tablespoons milk
1 cup bread crumbs (plain or Italian)
About 6 tablespoons butter or margarine
4 slices of lemon
* for those who don’t eat veal, chicken
breasts also work well with this recipe.
Place the meat
between two pieces of plastic wrap and pound
with a mallet until 1/2” thick. (If using
chicken instead of veal, cut the chicken breast
in half first, otherwise it will be too thick
to start with). Season with salt and pepper.
Coat the cutlets with flour.
Mix the eggs
and milk and dip the meat into the mixture,
then place each into the breadcrumbs to coat.
Coat each side with breadcrumbs and then make
sure to press the breadcrumbs firmly onto the
meat.
Melt the butter or margarine in a large skillet
over medium heat. Cook the breaded schnitzel
until browned - about 3-4 minutes on each side.
Garnish the schitzel
with a lemon slice on each and serve with roasted
potatoes and a green salad.
And a slightly chilled glass of 2005 Huber Chardonnay!

Traudl’s
Harvest Soup
Enjoy with 2004
Estate Dornfelder
This soup was
something Traudl made up one evening, when our
good friend Bob Senn came to dinner. When Bob
asked for the recipe, Traudl “reverse
engineered” the soup! Delicious and warming
in Autumn and Winter.
Ingredients:
4 cups fat-free chicken broth
2 pounds cut up carrots
3 medium potatoes
2 cups acorn squash, softened in the microwave
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon honey
2 bouillon cubes (chicken)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Cook all until
soft. Remove bay leaves. Add 2 cups low-fat
milk, and then puree. Soup’s on!
Serves 12.

Munich
Applestrudel
Great with 2004
Estate Chardonnay, and also wonderful after
a hearty meal with Cheese and 2004 Estate Dornfelder
Strudel
Dough
1/2 pound Flour
2 eggs
pinch of salt
2 tablespoons oil
1/2 cup warm water
Mix all together
and then let rest for 1/2 hour. Cut dough in
half and roll out on a floured cloth and then
pull out to very thin with the back of your
hands.
Filling
3 pounds tart apples
juice of one lemon
5 ounces of raisins soaked in 5 tablespoons
rum
3 ounces butter
1 cup sourcream
sugar mixed with cinnamon to taste
Preheat oven
to 375 degrees. Peel, core and finely slice
the apples, sprinkle with lemon juice. Brush
dough with melted butter, dab sourcream over
the butter and distribute evenly. Spread apples
over the dough, then spread the raisins and
cinnamon-sugar; keep the filling about 1 inch
from the edge of the dough. Rollup loosely with
the help of the floured cloth. Slide the strudel
into a well buttered 10x14 inch casserole dish;
proceed in the same manner with the second strudel.
Bake on the middle rack of the oven. After about
20 minutes pour about a cup of hot milk over
the strudel and bake another 40 minutes. When
done baking, sprinkle with powdered sugar and
serve either hot or cold.
Serves 4 to 6
