This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

This is a great meal, I have been making it since the Frugal Gourmet was on my local PBS station in the late eighties. Everyone loves it.

I have been making this recipe for years. It's my family's absolute favorite pot roast recipe! After a few years, I changed the dried mushrooms to sliced white mushrooms and add them closer to the end of cooking. This recipe is easy and so delicious! I serve it with mashed potatoes and use the creamy sauce like gravy.
