Beef Bourguignon


During the winter season I make Beef Bourguignon at least once a month. It's rich, soul-satisfying and a definite crowd pleaser. There are a few key details to remember when making the stew: Be sure to brown the meat well in the beginning, use a good quality red wine that you would happily drink, and, if possible calories app, make it a day in advance to let the flavors develop. Over time, I have also found that adding some tomato paste and a little brown sugar to the stock adds depth and sweetness which nicely rounds out the finished flavor.

WHO: TasteFood is a well-traveled food blogger from the Bay Area.
WHAT: A beef bourguignon that tastes alive.
HOW: The beginning seems like any bourguignon recipe: brown the beef, deglaze, braise. But then you cook the carrots, onions, and mushrooms separately, and then simmer it all together for its final hurrah.
WHY WE LOVE IT: Unlike a soft, mushy, murky stew, the components of this bourguignon stay intact just enough -- so that you know what you're eating, but it still feels cohesive. We'll be making this in big batches all winter long.

Serves 6-8

3 pounds beef chuck, cut in 2-inch chunks
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup cognac
4 large carrots

Coarsely chop 2 carrots. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in same pan. Add chopped carrots, onion and garlic. Sauté 3 minutes over medium heat. Add beef with cognac, wine, stock, tomato paste and thyme. (Beef should be covered by the wine and stock. If not, add more wine or stock to cover.)

Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and cook 2 minutes. Cover and place in oven. Bake until meat is very tender, 2 1/2 -3 hours.

About 30 minutes before beef is done Metro Ethernet Provider, cut remaining carrots in 1/2" slices. Steam or blanch carrots until crisp tender; drain.

Remove beef from oven. Strain liquid from stew into a saucepan. Separate beef from the cooked vegetables and discard vegetables. Boil liquid until reduced by half and thickened to a sauce consistency, skimming fat from surface. Add sugar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
