    Being American, I had to look up 'Swede' to find out that it was what we call a rutabaga. And I used to work in a restaurant kitchen.

    • @rhettlover1
      @rhettlover1 Před 3 lety +4

      Yup! If your source didn't tell you, rutabagas, or as my Southern dad called them, "rutabagies", were an important staple in northern Europe--I know, obvious! I did a quick look-up, the Scottish "neeps" refers to rutabaga, or new turnip. My Wisconsin Scandihouvian mom always put rutabagies in her beef stew and pot roast, never served them as a solo veg. I'm pretty sure she also threw in parsnips at times. Isn't it grand to have such food exchanges?

    • @musiclover148
      @musiclover148 Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks, I was going to ask what it was.

    • @chrissyh7
      @chrissyh7 Před 3 lety +1

    • @geraltofrivea7759
      @geraltofrivea7759 Před 3 lety

      We do like to confuse things in Scotland. The auld yins (Older folks) here call them 'neeps' which would hint at those being turnips but Swedes tend to be more commonplace in the shops nowadays so that's what I tend use.

    • @lanebashford3982
      @lanebashford3982 Před 3 lety

      They sell rutabagas here in the Deep South year round, pretty much. We love them. They also serve them at most of our local restaurants as a side dish. We don't typically eat white turnips in the south, only rutebagas. They are one of my favorite veggies.

  • @amirahassan2695
    @amirahassan2695 Před 2 lety +1

    I made this tonight, and it’s probably the best stew I’ve ever had. I was a little unsure about the addition of the cranberry sauce, but it was amazing!! This will definitely be something I cook monthly. Don’t skip the fresh thyme sprinkled on top, it really ties it all together.

  • @ralphrowlands3902
    @ralphrowlands3902 Před rokem +2

    I follow you and I can’t believe I’ve only just seen this recipe. I had visitors the day after I made it. Omg it was amazing. Some nice touches in that. They couldn’t get over how luscious it was and said it was the best they’d ever tasted. I noticed reading some of the comments that some say it’s not Scottish. It’s a recognised fact that there are as many “original” recipes in all the counties, as well as England, Wales and Scotland as there are families and grannies. And tempers can flare over the different methods, ingredients and even names of dishes. It’s your dish. It’s delicious. Keep up the good work. That is one amazing Scottish Welsh English stews. Well done

  • @glenncolby3791
    @glenncolby3791 Před rokem +2

    Solid recipe (and great video). I recommend cooking half the meat at a time so that the pan is not crowded and it browns the meat nicely. It only takes an extra 8 minutes or so, but it's worth it.

  • @execbum1
    @execbum1 Před 7 měsíci

    I made this tonight, but didn't have a swede on hand. I chucked in a bit of celery I needed to use up and used white wine as that's what I had open, but this was still very, very good. I think with the red wine and swede it was supposed to have, this would be magical. I now have swede on my list for tomorrow's shopping! Thank you for this recipe - even my fussy children ate it! It has lifted my beef stew game enormously. 😃😋🥰

    Beautiful recipe. The type of cooking, the aromas and the spices make me think that it is an ancient recipe, strengths of the fifteenth century, similar to others of the same period such as Peposo alla Fornacina (Renaissance Italy). This stew closes the mouth of those who make easy sarcasm about Scottish cuisine ^ __ ^

    It’s been a difficult Winter/Spring that has included two heart stents; a right hip replacement; missing Christmas because of the Corona Virus; then upon release from hospital being rammed by a driver who ran a red light at 60 miles an hour while texting on her cell phone which resulted in my neck being broken and a bruised heart muscle. I discovered your amazing video/recipe on my iPad while in hospital and have made it several times upon my release. Today is the fourth time. This Scottish Beef Stew is my favorite of all beef stew recipes. It is a mighty prescriptive for broken necks, Corona Virus, heart surgery, having been skipped over by Santa, and it will also probably prevent abduction by space aliens. Seriously, this is a wonderful recipe. I couldn’t find a Swede so I tossed in a Norwegian, no, I’m sorry, I meant to say a turnip. It turned out great! I also ran out of currant jelly so I used Kentucky Mayhaw jam. That worked also. Thank you for your excellent recipes.

    Looks incredible - Why do these types of meals always go in the oven as opposed to cooking on the hob? I always wondered about this

    A more common Scottish recipe back in the day was Mince and Tatties. If you jazzed it up like this it would be yum.

    This looks wunderbar. Tell me though could I make this in a Dutch Over over the coals and what can I use as substitute for Cranberry Jelly please. Thank you kindly.
