Tzimmes & a Gahtzah Tzimmes

Directions

Simmer brisket in water to cover until almost tender (about 1½ hours).

By this time the water will have boiled down to about half the original amount.

Peel carrots and slice in half-inch rounds. Add carrots, salt and sugar to meat.

Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until carrots are very tender (about 45 minutes).

Brown flour in a very small skillet, stirring constantly to prevent burning.

When flour is very light brown, remove from burner.

Add schmaltz and stir until smooth.

Gradually stir in carrot stock to make a smooth paste.

Add this paste to the carrots, stirring it carefully.

Continue to simmer until stock has thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
