Venison Stroganoff

As the title implies, I’m whipping up a nice batch for family dinner tonight. Lots of mushrooms, dill, and sour cream. Stalin would be proud.

Venison should be a great meat for a stroganoff.

Had the worst ever earlier this year in a pandemic-related effort to help local businesses when I ordered a 'heat and eat' version made by a total klutz of a chef. Very tough meat combined with orecchiete pasta in a sparse and nauseatingly unattractive battleship-gray sauce. We threw it away after a few bites. I'm sure yours will be a million times better!

Should be, I hope. Especially thanks to this guy:

Oh no, DON'T LOOK ETHEL!

Hey, best stroganoff I've ever had? At the long-since closed Russian Tea Room in NYC. It set the bar pretty high with briefly sauteed filet mignon and a topping of finely diced carrots and dill pickles which turned me into a sour topping maker/lover for life.

Ooh, I may have to garnish with chopped dill pickles. Thanks!

Damn that was good.

!! Btw, who does your family consist of these days? I think I recall that you have/had custody of your son....

My brother and SIL were in town so it was them, my mom, mrs. j and me. The bairn is away at college this semester.

They grow so fast! Glad to know there's a Mrs. J now.
