    I thought this was delicious. True to its name it is a very traditional comfy beef stew. Made with a side of biscuits. Perfect combination for a late fall night.

    I added a tsp or so of: Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce & vinegar, 2 TBL of tomato paste and also 1/2 oz dry porcini, rehydrated. I pureed porcini before adding to beef. all 3 of the family said it's a keeper.
