Ingredients
  • 1 pound beef bottom round
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 2 tablespoons oil, more as needed
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, or more if preferred, sliced thinly (optional)
  • 2 cups stock, wine, water, or a mixture
  • 4 carrots
  • 4 potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs, or a handful of herb sprigs; oregano,savory,rosemary, etc.
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch, if needed
  • salt and pepper
Directions
  • Cut meat into small cubes, about 1". Mix 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 2 tablespoons flour in a plastic or paper bag. Add the meat cubes, a handful at a time, and shake to coat.
  • Heat oil in a heavy skillet or Dutch oven and brown the meat over medium heat. Don't crowd the meat - brown in batches, if necessary, using more oil if needed. Add onion and garlic, if using, and cook until the onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Add liquid, herbs, carrots and potatoes. Cover, adjust heat to maintain a simmer (don't boil! ) and cook until meat is done and vegetables are very tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • If using sprigs of herbs, remove before serving. If broth seems too thin, mash several potato chunks from the stew into the broth or thicken with cornstarch: mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 2 tablespoon water to a smooth paste, stir into the broth, and boil, stirring constantly, until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as needed.

Multigrain Bread Recipe

Submitted by RecipeTips.com
Although it takes about 3 hours to produce home made bread (and much of this is rising time), it is not difficult--and the results are well worth the time spent. Makes one large or two small loaves.
Multigrain Bread Recipe
PREP: 2 hours
COOK: 45 minutes
READY IN: 3 hours
Container: baking sheet
Serving Description: makes 2 loaves
Ingredients
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon or 1 packet dry yeast
  • 1 cup white bread flour, more as needed
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (oatmeal)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Directions
  • Dissolve yeast in one cup of warm water. Let sit until proofed (foamy), about 10 minutes.
  • Add dry ingredients to the workbowl of food processor. Pulse a few times to blend.
  • Add honey and oil to proofed yeast. Pour into food processor and pulse with dry ingredients until dough makes a rough ball. Dough should be somewhat sticky. If it seems dry, add a tablespoon of water and pulse briefly.
  • Scrape dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead a few times, adding flour 1 tablespoon at a time if dough is too sticky to work with.
  • For the first rising: Put dough in greased bowl twice as big as dough ball (to accomodate risen dough), cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm draft-free place until about doubled in size, about 1 hour. (To make a suitable place, microwave  1 glass of water 2 minutes on high and put the dough in the microwave with the heated water.)
  • For the second rising: When dough has about doubled, deflate it by pushing with your fist, fold it over on itself a few times, and allow to rise again for about 1/2 hour.
  • To shape loaves: Return dough to work surface and flatten with hands or rolling pin to remove any air bubbles. For a large loaf, shape the dough into an oblong. To make small loaves, divide dough in half and shape each half into a round or oblong loaf. On a baking sheet, sprinkle areas of cornmeal somewhat larger than the loaves. Center the loaves on the cornmeal areas, cover loosely with damp cloth, and let rise until about double. Preheat oven to 375° F.
  • Using a very sharp knife, razor etc., carefully (so loaf doesn't deflate and collapse) slash loaf tops with parallel or criss-cross lines. (This allows expansion as the bread bakes. You can skip this step; the bread will still bake just fine, but there may be irregular bulges in the crust.)
  • Bake in preheated oven until loaves sound hollow when tapped on the bottom, about 40 minutes. Cool on a rack before slicing.

Servings:
Change Servings
Ingredients
  • 3 pounds beef roast (chuck, blade, rump)
  • 2 pounds potatoes
  • 1 pound carrots
  • 2 large onions
  • 2 tablespoons canola or other oil
  • 1 cup dry red wine (substitute tomato juice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 1 inch piece stick cinnamon (optional)
Directions
  • Trim off any large pieces of surface fat.  Mix together salt, pepper, paprika and turmeric and  rub this all over the meat.
  • In a dutch oven or large skillet with a domed lid, heat (medium-high) 2 tablespoons canola or other oil and brown the meat. Add more oil if needed.  Don't rush this step as browning is important for a rich deep flavor.
  • Reduce the heat and add 1 cup dry red wine (or tomato juice) and 1 cup water, the bay leaves, and, if using, the cinnamon stick. Regulate the heat to maintain a slow simmer. Cover the pot.
  • Scrub or peel potatoes and carrots and cut into large pieces. If using egg-sized or smaller potatoes, leave them whole. Cut the onions into large chunks.
  • After the meat has cooked for an hour, turn it over and add the cut up vegetables. If the vegetables don't all fit in your pan, remove some of the cooking liqiud to a second pan and cook some of the vegetables in it. Continue to simmer, covered, until the meat is tender, about an hour and a half.  The actual time will depend on the size and shape of the meat.
  • When the meat is done, remove meat and vegetables to a warmed platter and cover loosely to keep warm while you prepare the pan juices. To thicken, raise the heat and boil down the liquid to your desired consistency, or remove 1/2 cup pan juice and thoroughly mix with 1/4th cup flour. Whisk this back into the pan and cook for about 5 minutes. Correct the seasoning, if necessary.
  • Slice the meat across the grain, arrange with the vegetables and drizzle with some of the pan juice. Serve, with the remaining juice in a separate bowl.
