When stewing, it’s important to use a lid that fits tightly to prevent the loss of moisture and heat, which can affect the cooking time. Follow the timing guidelines provided in your recipe. Avoid lifting the lid, unless the recipe calls for adding vegetables or other ingredients later on. You’ll know the dish is done when the meat becomes fork-tender.
How do you deepen beef stew flavor?
Enhance the flavor of your dish with soy sauce, Worcestershire, honey, brown sugar, lemon zest, vinegar, chili powder, or smoked paprika.
Any of these recipes are guaranteed to elevate your beef stew. Be sure to pour a cup of wine and enjoy!
