Preparation

  1. Freeze meat for 1 hour. Cut into 12 to 16 thin slices. Place 1 slice between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound until paper thin. Repeat with remaining slices. (Can be rewrapped and refrigerated until 1 hour before serving.)
  2. Bring 4 cups of broth to boil and add grated horseradish or ginger. Lower heat and simmer gently for 10 minutes. (Can be prepared ahead up to this point, covered and left at room temperature.) Strain and measure, adding additional broth if needed to make 4 cups.
  3. Bring broth back to boil. Add rutabaga, zucchini, carrot and mushrooms, cover and simmer gently for 5 minutes. Stir in cabbage and snow peas, cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Meanwhile, arrange meat slices in the bottom of 4 soup plates. Combine mustard and horseradish and spread over meat. Pepper meat. Ladle the broth and vegetables over the meat and serve immediately.
