ULTIMATE BEEF STEW



Ultimate Beef Stew image

Ina Garten couldn't possibly have known when she started working on her latest cookbook how much we'd all need comfort food right now. She came up with the concept for Modern Comfort Food more than two years ago, figuring the book would arrive just before the presidential election and that we might be a bit stressed. "Little did I know that 2020 would bring so much more," she says. "Right now I think we just want really simple comforting foods that make us feel good." In many ways, the book seems meant to be. "It was the easiest one I've ever written. I tend to gravitate toward comfort food anyway, and I found that the book just flowed in a way I don't ever remember." Many of the recipes are the culmination of years of experimentation and taste memories. This beef stew was inspired by the takeout stews Ina and Jeffrey ate in their tent when they camped outside Paris in the spring and summer of 1971. "Over the years I learned a lot about what makes beef stew really delicious," she says. "A nice red wine, short ribs instead of chuck. It's a classic recipe, just done in a more modern way."

Time 3h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons good olive oil
4 ounces small-diced pancetta
3 pounds boneless short ribs, cut in 1 1/2-inch chunks (4 1/2 pounds on the bone)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup Cognac or brandy
1 cup hearty red wine, such as a Côtes du Rhône or Chianti, divided
2 cups chopped yellow onions (2 onions)
2 cups chopped fennel, trimmed and cored (1 large bulb)
2 tablespoons minced garlic (6 cloves)
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, including the juices
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cups beef broth, such as College Inn
1 pound carrots, scrubbed and cut 1/2 inch thick diagonally
1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed, 1-inch diced
10 ounces frozen peas

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300˚ F.
  • Heat the oil in a large (11- to 12-inch) Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until browned. With a slotted spoon, transfer the pancetta to a plate lined with a paper towel and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, season the short ribs all over with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Brown half the meat in the Dutch oven over medium heat, turning occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, until browned on all sides. Transfer the meat to a bowl and brown the second batch. (Don't cook them all in one batch or they won't brown!) Transfer the second batch to the bowl and set aside.
  • Off the heat, add the Cognac and 1/3 cup of the wine to the pot, scraping up any browned bits, then simmer over medium heat for one minute. Add the onions and fennel and sauté, stirring occasionally, for 7 to 8 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Add the garlic and cook for one minute.
  • Stir the tomatoes and tomato paste into the vegetables. Add the remaining 2/3 cup of wine, the beef broth, the seared meat (and juices), 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Bring to a simmer, cover and bake for 1 1/4 hours, checking occasionally to be sure the liquid is simmering.
  • Degrease the stew, if necessary. Stir in the carrots and potatoes, cover and bake for one hour longer, until the vegetables and meat are very tender when tested with a fork. Just before serving, stir in the peas and pancetta, taste for seasonings and serve hot in large, shallow bowls.

KELLY'S PRESSURE COOKER BEEF STEW

My mother used to make beef stew in a pressure cooker at least once a week. I crave it all the time and have doctored up the flavor so it's no longer just 'meat and potatoes' tasting.

PRESSURE COOKER BEEF STEW WITH MAPLE AND STOUT



Pressure Cooker Beef Stew With Maple and Stout image

This savory-sweet stew is delightfully hands-off - no sautéing, searing or simmering. The key is the timing: Cook the beef first and add the vegetables later to ensure that the meat tenderizes while the vegetables retain some bite. Real maple syrup gives the dish a sweetness that pairs well with the mild bitterness of stout beer. Carrots, potatoes and parsnips are classic stew vegetables, but rutabaga or celery root work well, too. A squeeze of lemon at the end brightens the flavors of this cold-weather dish.

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 pounds beef chuck roast, excess fat trimmed, meat cut into 2-inch pieces
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 thyme sprigs
2 rosemary sprigs
1 cup beef broth (or 1 1/4 cups if using an 8-quart pot)
3/4 cup stout beer (or 1 cup if using an 8-quart pot)
1/4 cup real maple syrup, preferably dark
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, preferably aged
3 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
2 parsnips, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
2 large russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, plus more to taste

Steps:

  • Add the beef to a 6- to 8-quart pressure cooker, season it generously with salt and pepper and toss it with the flour until evenly coated. Add the herb sprigs, the broth, beer, syrup, garlic, red-pepper flakes, onion and garlic powders and 1 tablespoon vinegar; stir to combine. Cover and set steam valve to sealed position. Cook on high pressure for 20 minutes.
  • Let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually. (If hot liquid spurts out with the steam, close the knob and wait a few more minutes, then release again.) Stir in the carrots, parsnips and potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Cover and set steam valve to sealed position. Cook on high pressure for 18 minutes.
  • Let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually. (If hot liquid spurts out with the steam, close the knob and wait a few more minutes, then release again.) Remove and discard the rosemary and thyme sprigs.
  • Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar. Season to taste with more salt and pepper, as needed. Add the lemon juice. If the vegetables are not tender, or if the broth is not as thick as you would like, using the sauté setting, simmer for a few minutes. (You can also stir to encourage the potatoes to fall apart a little, which will help thicken the broth.) Divide among shallow bowls.

PRESSURE COOKER BEEF STEW



Pressure Cooker Beef Stew image

This beef stew was made for us when we were just infants, my mother used to put it in the blender for us as babies. To this day it reminds me of home. The pressure cooker makes the meat fall apart tender and cooks up in 20 minutes.

Provided by MISSCANADA

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Stews     Beef

Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small onion, diced
2 pounds cubed beef stew meat
5 carrots, peeled and diced
8 medium baking potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 cubes beef bouillon
2 cups water
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons salt, or to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in the bottom of the pressure cooker over medium-high heat. If your cooker has an insert, remove it and cook directly in the bottom of the pot. Add the onion and beef, and cook until browned on the outside.
  • Stir in the water, bouillon cubes and carrots, close the lid, and secure the pressure regulator. Heat until you start to hear sizzling, then reduce the heat to medium, and set your timer for 20 minutes. If you have an adjustable pressure regulator, set it for 10 pounds of pressure.
  • Meanwhile, place the potatoes in a saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain. This whole process should take about the same amount of time as the rest of the stew.
  • When the 20 minutes are up, release the pressure from the pot according to the manufacturer's instructions - mine needs to sit under cold running water for 5 minutes until the lid can be released.
  • Remove the lid, and place the pot over medium heat. Bring to a boil. Stir the cornstarch into a small amount of cold water to make a slurry. Stir this into the stew, and cook for a few minutes. Add the potatoes to the stew, or place them in serving dishes, and ladle the stew over them.

Tips:

  • For optimal flavor, use high-quality beef chuck roast. Chuck roast is a flavorful cut of meat that becomes tender when cooked slowly under pressure.
  • Sear the beef before cooking to develop a rich, caramelized flavor.
  • Use a variety of vegetables to create a hearty and flavorful stew. Potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions are all classic additions, but you can also add other vegetables such as parsnips, turnips, or green beans.
  • Season the stew with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. Common seasonings for beef stew include garlic, onion powder, paprika, and thyme.
  • Cook the stew on high pressure for 30 minutes for fall-apart tender beef. If you prefer a thicker stew, use less liquid or cook for an additional 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve the stew hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles. You can also garnish the stew with fresh herbs, such as parsley or cilantro.

Conclusion:

Cooking under pressure is a great way to create delicious and comforting meals in a fraction of the time. This beef tater stew is a perfect example of a dish that is easy to make and packed with flavor. With its tender beef, hearty vegetables, and flavorful broth, this stew is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're short on time, don't be afraid to reach for your pressure cooker. You'll be glad you did!
