    I just finished making this stew; here are my thoughts and advice; perhaps it may help someone.
    - Make sure before you begin that you will get your misenplas on. A French term for having everything in its place; to be ready for success. (Have your ingredients ready to rock)
    - Watch the video a few times
    - Make Chef Jean Pierre's beef stock or fortify a store bought stock as per Chef Jean Pierre's instructions. I made mine from his recipe and was rewarded with one of the best stews I've ever had. The batch of beef stock I made was very large; I have a good amount left in the freezer even after making this large pot of stew.
    - Do not skimp on ingredient quality. Buy the best you can afford/get your hands on. This can be made for a relatively low cost considering how much it yields and how delicious it is; no need to penny pinch on this one.
    - And finally, do not be afraid of this recipe. Anyone can make this baby. This one is also a bit eye opening as it is utterly delicious. Invite the family over and wow them.
    One final note. The Chef says it would be good with mashed potatoes. After just eating this and tasting that delicious sauce/gravy this made you can see why. Mashed potatoes with this would be heavenly.

    I am 66 years old, so have been cooking a l-o-o-o-ng time. However, I am proof an old dog can learn new tricks, and I learned quite a few making this outstanding stew! The take home for me was using the strainer to add the flour at the BEGINNING! I have been struggling with the thickening process for my beef stew since I began cooking as a young 19 year old bride, and now -- finally -- have the secret to a nice, thick sauce! My grandson came back to the house 2 days in a row, hoping to find leftovers! (I thought he came to see me, but it was really the stew...LOL.) Thank you for your wonderful videos and cooking methods!

    Quick update. I tried soaking the mushrooms in French Brandy and I used them in a stroganoff. Wow. The extra depth of flavour this gave the dish was amazing. I used 100ml of brandy and once the mushrooms were fully rehydrated (about 25 mins), I drained the mushrooms and added another 50ml of Brandy to the remaining mushroom infused Brandy. I then used it to flambé the fillet steak. Thanks Chef for the tip on not rehydrating with water.

From using a sifter for the flour, to sauteing the carrots and potatoes afterwards. I just wanted to thank you for making a positive change in my cooking skills.

    2. Water is the enemy, draw it out with salt.
    3. Cherry tomatoes are fabulous.
    4. Adding tomato paste to store bought stock (probably) will make it able to last up to 17 years in the fridge.
    5. Flour goes in at the beginning of the dish, otherwise it tastes like glue.

    We made this yesterday - best beef stew I've ever had! Being the rebel I am, I had to do something a little different, so we steamed the brussel sprouts and carrots rather than poaching them, and did the baby potatoes in the air fryer. This is such a great tip to cook the vegetables separately- I've never been a fan of mushy stew vegetables, plus they end up almost entirely just taking on the flavor of the stew, rather than having their own distinct flavor. A huge improvement to cook them separately!

      I’m about your age and I haven’t used that trick either. I make the roux after browning the beef. I’m a little hesitant as I use the fond from the beef and it seems sad to waste. I could always do the sieve trick, and deglaze the pan though.

      @ytreece Před 3 lety +1

      @@ucanleaveyourhaton it’s the browned bits in the bottom of the pan after you roast or sauté meat/vegetables to brown them. The browned bits are a result of the Maillard reaction which occurs between sugars and amino acids in the food. The Maillard reaction happens at temperatures lower than burning, and causes food to be more flavorful and tasty. If it’s burned, it has gone too far and will be bitter. Some of the tastiness is on the food, but the browned bits in the pan (fond) can be incorporated into the dish by deglazing, or adding liquid to the pan and stirring them up and scraping the bits (fond) off the pan. Once the fond is incorporated into the liquid it can be cooked down by evaporating the liquid. This will further intensify the flavor and keep the flavorful fond in the dish rather than just cleaning the pot of the bits left behind. Sorry to give such a long answer. I am trained in biochemistry. The short answer is fond is the browned bits in the pan after sautéing or roasting something.

      This one, "little" tip made the whole video worthwhile, but I'm going to try his broth recipe, too. For years I've tried to keep ice-cube sized hunks of cooked flour/broth roux in my freezer for thickening, but haven't had the "oomph" to do so, lately. The double-layered sieve trick is SO clever! This whole recipe tickled my taste buds; I _WILL_ try it out, word for word, _mise en place_ and all!

    13:20 I always use potatoes for sauces and soup as thickening agent. Boil them alongside with what you are cooking, then remove them into a separate bowl, mashed them, add in the liquid you are cooking, then stir and add them back to what you are cooking. The starch eventually thicken the liquid you are cooking. This method allows you to thicken sauces or soup at the end, very simple.

    A friend taught me how to "squeak" mushrooms. He took all the fresh mushrooms that came packaged and put them in a small dry skillet - nothing added. He put the flame on underneath them and after a little while, the water started to come out of the mushrooms. He lowered the flame, moved the mushrooms around a little bit, and you heard the "squeak". The more water that came out of the mushrooms, the more they "squeaked". They tasted delicious!

    I watched this yesterday and really was impressed with how Jean-Pierre sauteed the mushrooms to get out all the water from them. It was not until today my unobservant eyes realized he was doing so with whole mushrooms. I always slice mine and am not very pleased with my efforts, I am cooking up twice-baked potatoes following his recipe for that and will cook the mushrooms, which are baby Bellas, whole for a change. I will also continue cooking them until the water has evaporated as he does in this recipe for beef stew. Maybe the mushrooms will come out with better flavor for not having any water in them, and having a deeper brown color than I end up with.

    Chef, thank you for the strainer trick. A roux is usually in my house ready to go, but the strainer is so cool. Only thing I have to remind myself, treat it like a roux. Don’t dump the flour in unless at a simmer or it will give you a false consistency. Thank you so much.

      Indian cuisine says the longer you fry onions you better the final dish flavour.
      Don't skimp your onions frying, low heat soften to whatever level you like,
      If necessary add little water to avoid burning. Water evaporates so not kept.

I can tell you that his method using the sifter is foolproof, and oh so easy to do. I have subscribed.
