Description
There is nothing more comforting than a bowl of classic beef stew. This recipe creates a rich, savory, and deeply flavorful stew with fall-apart tender beef and hearty vegetables like carrots, potatoes, and mushrooms. The secret to a great stew is to take the time to brown the beef properly and to let it simmer slowly, allowing all the flavors to meld together. It's a perfect one-pot meal for a cold winter day.

Stews are one of the oldest forms of cooking, with evidence of stews being made in ancient times. The simple method of slow-cooking meat and vegetables in a liquid over a low heat has been a staple in cuisines all over the world for centuries. The classic American and European beef stew, with its rich gravy base, became a standard comfort food in the 19th century.
