MOM'S OLD-FASHIONED BEEF STEW
This is the beef stew I've been making for over 30 years! Dark-brown beef and vegetables in lots of rich gravy,it's total comfort food on a chilly night and freezes very well. Originally from the 12th edition of the Fanny Farmer cookbook, published in 1980, I've modified it over the years to what we consider "perfect"! :) I've also done this in the pressure cooker when time was short. Add some crusty rolls to mop the gravy up and you have a yummy meal.I usually add some Kitchen Bouquet or Gravy Master while the meat is simmering to make an even richer flavored gravy and thicken it toward the end of cooking with some Wondra or a flour slurry.You can also start this the day before up until adding the vegetables. Remove the bones from the pot and refrigerate overnight. Before proceeding, skim off any fat that has congealed on the surface and continue with the recipe.I usually use half beef broth and half water.
