ULTIMATE BEEF STEW
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."

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.

Steps:
- 1. I started this stew in my Dutch oven, because it hold the heat in and hastens the cooking time. Using the tomato paste helps to thicken the broth in the stew, as well as the mashed potatoes. The amounts in this recipe is what I had, you can vary the amounts and variety of what you have on hand.
- 2. In a Dutch oven, over medium high heat, add the chopped celery and then add the carrots, and stir & continue to cook for about 10 minutes.
- 3. Next add the bay leaves and chopped onion, stir again and continue to cook.
- 4. Add the cubed sirloin Tip Roast, stir to mix, then cover and continue to cook over medium low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Add the sliced mushrooms, and stir to blend together.
- 5. Add the remaining left over veggies, & tomato paste.
- 6. Then add the Beer, or may use a red wine if desired. Add the frozen peas. Continue to cook over low heat.
- 7. Now add the beef broth, Au Jus and stir to blend. Add the cold mashed potatoes, and stir to blend in with other ingredients. At this point I had to switch to a larger pot. I continued to let it cook over low heat , stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking. I did not need to add any additional spices, but you can if desired.
- 8. The beef stew cooked for a total of about 2 hours. I made a BACON & CARAWAY CRUSTY BREAD TO SERVE WITH THIS STEW. I will post the recipe, if you would like to try it. It is a simple RUSTIC BREAD that DOES NOT USE YEAST, & ONLY TAKES 45 MINUTES TO BAKE. It was perfect with this stew.
- 9. This is the larger pot I had to switch too, after adding the cold mashed Potatoes.
- 10. A large bowl of this stew , on a Rainy day like today, with a warm piece of Crusty Bread and it hits the tummy just right.
