  • 700 g medium potatoes
  • 4 teaspoons anise seeds
  • 1  1/2 teaspoons coriander seed
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1/3 cup beer
  • 1/4 cup vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

  • 2 medium onions, chopped (1 cup)
  • 2 stalks celery, sliced (about 1 cup)
