We just call Worcestershire sauce Lea & Perrins
I have great memories of a very talented mother whose cooking could make you slap anyone but her. If you grew up or are growing up in a similar home, thank your mom. Mine is 94, has Alzheimers, and can't remember being the artist she was. Even though she doesn't remember, she enjoys hearing stories of all the wonderful things she did for her family.
I have 2 sons. I feel the same excitement and satisfaction you show when your son approves 😁
We have made a version of this my whole life.
We only used meat, onions, canned tomatoes, flour, and seasoning. Added some butter to make the sauce richer sometimes.
It's easy, cheap, and awesome. We never tenderized – slow oven, all day, it was fall apart tender by the end.
wash your sister sauce 😂
I was born and raised in Switzerland and was confused for the first few seconds. 😅
Made this for dinner tonight. Absolutely delicious, tender and easy to make with store bought Swiss steak. Made enough for another meal for the two of us. Thank you for your great recipes and directions.
Ya got a good kid. 👍
Hmm. Reminds me on Ossobuco, but without sliced veal knuckles.
Ok I grew up being fed mcd’s or Taco Bell. I am learning to cook at age 55. My hubby and I are loving this dish! Thank you so much!!
Huh. I've made this a bunch of times and never knew it was called Swiss Steak. I make extra sauce and serve it over pasta.
Hiya, many thanks for all the great recipes, many of which I have had my less than accomplished stab at – love your work!
As a Brit I think I can save you some tongue twisting time when it comes to that peculiarly English tangy and savoury liquid condiment.
Despite the spelling everyone I know, without exception, refers to it as ‘Worcester sauce’ and pronounces it like ‘Wooster’.
Keep up the good work!
My mom, back in New York, made Swiss Steak pretty often. Same ingredients… but a totally different preparation. Hers had big chunks of meat, no pounding, and veggies and simmered with no touching (that was important!) for those same 2 hours. I imagine hers was because it was at the end of a long work day for her and she did not want to fuss with the added prep work. But the flavor was probably very similar.
Wine will never help this dish. It’s a depression era dish when nobody could afford wine.
It pairs best with cabbage or other greens and cornbread and iced tea.
Anything tomato based loves to be peppered.
You forgot the catsup.
You Worcestershire the way the people from Worsetershire say it.
The meat used for this fish has very, very, very little fat.
Wine is almost never used in Southern dishes.
it’s called fond…
Bacon grease is the best tasting oil.
If it ain’t cast iron, you ain’t really cooking.,
$8 per pound is waaaaay overpriced. Round steak here is going for less than a third of that.
Wuster shur sauce is the correct pronunciation (I'm from the UK!)
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I am going to try this. Do you think it would work in a slow cooker?
Being from Switzerland I was ready to type a whole rant how I have never seen this dish in my life. Glad you cleared that up.
I will be making this on my next day off! It looks super easy and delicious!…I will need to pick up a meat tenderizer before then.
Most people here in the UK just call it "Wooster" sauce. The funniest I have heard is "Wash your sister" sauce. You're right – no-one rally cares. 😊
my Moms Swiss steak recipe uses red and green peppers instead of carrots and celery. a twist on the recipes is the Hungarian pancake. its Swiss Steak with the meat shredded served on a golden brown potato pancake and sour cream drizzled on it

So going to make this, maybe tomorrow. Snow weekend, dontchaknow, here in the Tennessee Valley. Happy New Year, O my brothers, and Only Friends.
Made this tonight, very delicious.
I watched this last night and forgot to comment. Looked excellent. You can't seem to please James who always has some little complaint. He should realize that nothing is ever totally perfect and should come up with more compliments for what IS good! For his father's satisfaction and all his efforts! Kindness goes a long way. Thanks, Jim. – Marilyn
Tri power of French cooking 🎉🎉🎉 Happy New Year to you and your family
Slow cooker Dutch oven those 2 cooking tools. This was last night for three people to go to a restaurant 66.00. yeah it's very expensive to consume food outside of your house now. Buy good ingredients and watch the show I promise. You will learn how to cook and then go to McDonald's once a month
My mom prepared this dish often for us when we were growing up. She served it with rice. It was truly one of my favorite dishes that she prepared along with her Beef Stroganoff and Hot Tamale Pie. I am 67 now and my mom stopped cooking once me and my siblings left for college. Those were some fantastic family dinners and this video brings back wonderful memories. Thanks.
The best thing about feeding kids is the feedback.
Um from Joysey I say wooder”water” and “crick” creek😂
May I ask, when you do your cookbook will it have nutrition info for each recipe? I actually need the sodium content for Hubby so I can adjust as necessary.
