Food Fare: American RecipesHamburger Roll with Mushroom Sauce

Colonial American

 

Meat:

Meat: Mix the ground beef well with the lemon rind, egg, melted butter, parsley, salt, pepper, onion juice and nutmeg. Shape into a roll about 10 inches long and 2 inches thick. Wrap the roll in brown paper (paper-bags work), brush the paper with melted fat (Crisco), and tie securely with string to keep the roll in shape. Place on a rack in a baking pan, and cook for thirty minutes on 350-degrees F. Baste several times, through the paper, with a mixture of 1/4 C butter and 1 cup of boiling water. Remove from oven, and pull the paper off the roll carefully, and return the meat to the oven for about ten minutes.

 

Sauce:

Sauce: Drain canned mushrooms and discard the liquid (or wash fresh mushrooms in cold water, wipe dry, and cut into quarters with stems). Melt butter in a saucepan, add mushrooms and lemon juice, and cook for about five minutes or until nicely browned. Stir in the flour, mixing it to keep as smooth as possible. Remove from heat. Measure the drippings from the roasting pan and add enough beef broth to make about 2 cups. Pour into mushroom mixture and cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until bubbly. Season with salt and pepper. Slice hamburger roll and spoon sauce over slices. Garnish with the parsley.
