Not easy to prepare, but just time-consuming. Good stuff.<br /><br />LeatherneckAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-24818804308122071372011-01-08T13:17:50.934-05:002011-01-08T13:17:50.934-05:00Penzey's turns out some simply amazing dead-of...Penzey's turns out some simply amazing dead-of-winter chow. The favorite here at the nerd ranch: In a decent sized stew pot, sweat about half an onion, 3 chopped carrots, and a some of cabbage in olive oil until the onions go soft. Add in 1 very large or two small/medium (three small if you really like) diced potatos and a tablespoon of flour. Give the flour about a minute to soak up any oil left, and add 3 cups of chicken stock and 3/4 a bottle of beer (stouts and porters for preference here) and bring to a boil, then back down to a brisk simmer. Toss in 1/2 tsp of mustard powder, 1/2 tsp of garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp of Penzey's Black & Red spice. Mix about 1/4-1/2 tsp of worcestershire into 1/2 cup of milk, and stir into the soup. Meanwhile, saute about 2 cups or so of stew beef enough to get some nice browning, and set aside. When the potatos and carrots are tender, stir in the beef, and start adding in cheddar cheese. The official recipe says 3 cups, but I like cheese and tend to just add until it looks right to me. <br /><br />Not for the fragile of artery, but very tasty and reheats well.Stingrayhttp://www.atomicnerds.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-36532944204348031952011-01-08T02:47:43.202-05:002011-01-08T02:47:43.202-05:00I can always count on you to stimulate my saliva g...I can always count on you to stimulate my saliva glands.
