I just love a good and hearty beef stew. The way I make it, I buy a couple good quality steaks and cut them up myself. I find that the stewing meat that we have in our stores isn't the greatest quality. I careful brown the meat and add onions and a bit of garlic. I add beef stock and let it slow simmer for a couple hours. Later I add chunks of potato and turnip, then a little later carrots and some other veggies depending on what I have on hand. For the gravy, I usually use a little bit of arrowroot flour and some gravy mix. MMMmmm. So, now I'm thinking all about stew, think I will go whip up some.
