- Let the lentils, juniper berries and bay leaves boil in 1 liter of water for 1 hour. If too much water evaporates, add more water. Pour the lentils onto a sieve, collect the broth.
- Sweat the flour in butter until dark, add the finely diced onion and fry briefly. Add the lentil stock with the whisk (deglaze). Be careful not to create lumps. Add the granulated stock, as well as the tomato paste and vinegar. Let the sauce simmer for 20 minutes, then add the lentils to the sauce.
- Serve with spaetzle and string sausages as is customary.
About Editorial Staff
The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
