SHORT RIB STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Season the meat with the paprika and some salt and pepper. Heat a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat and add the oil. When hot, add the meat and cook until brown on both sides. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• Add the mushrooms and cook until brown, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, an additional 2 minutes. Add the flour and cook the roux, stirring, for a couple minutes. Whisk in the red wine and bring to a simmer. Add the stock and milk, whisking to remove any lumps. Place the ribs back in the pot and simmer until the meat is tender, about 2 hours. (Alternatively, cook in the oven at 275 degree F until tender.)
• When you are ready to serve, bring a pot of water to a boil and salt liberally. Add the pasta, give it a stir and cook until al dente according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
• Remove the stroganoff from the heat, mix in the sour cream, pickles and parsley if using and serve with the pasta.

BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven or large, heavy pot over medium-high heat, add the oil and 2 tablespoons of the butter. Heat until the butter is melted and the oil is hot. Add the meat in batches and brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side; set aside. Add the mushrooms, garlic and onion to the pot. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are translucent and slightly tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the meat back along with the beef stock, soy sauce, mustard and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer, using a wooden spoon to scrape up all the brown bits from the bottom of the pot, and simmer, covered, until tender, about 2 hours and 50 minutes. Add the thyme and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles in the boiling water according to the package instructions. Drain the noodles and transfer to a bowl. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the noodles, stirring to melt the butter and distribute it.
• Add the sour cream and cream cheese to the stroganoff and stir to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
• In a serving dish, place the egg noodles in an even layer and top with the stroganoff. Garnish with the chopped parsley.

THE BEST BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Season the beef with 1 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, untouched, until starting to turn brown in some spots, about 1 minute. Use tongs to flip the pieces and continue cooking until deep golden brown but still undercooked in the center, about 1 minute (the beef will finish cooking in the sauce). Transfer the beef to a bowl and return the skillet to the stovetop on medium-high.
• Add 1 tablespoon butter to the skillet. Add the onion and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally to scrape up the browned bits in the pan, until the onions are softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons butter, the button mushrooms, shiitakes and thyme and cook, stirring occasionally scraping up any browned bits, until the mushrooms have released some liquid and are starting to crisp up, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the wine and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until evaporated, about 5 minutes.
• Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir until incorporated. Fold in the sour cream, Dijon, Worcestershire sauce and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Pour in the beef broth and stir until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, while the sauce reduces, cook the egg noodles according to the package directions for al dente. Drain and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, the chopped parsley and chives.
• Fold the beef and any accumulated juices from the bowl into the sauce and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beef is cooked through but still slightly pink on the inside, about 1 minute.
• Divide the noodles between 4 bowls and top with the sauce and beef. Sprinkle with more chives, if desired.

BRAISED BEEF 'STROGANOFF'

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Season the beef all over with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a stew pot over high heat. When hot, add the beef and cook, in batches if needed, until browned. Transfer to a plate.
• Reduce heat to medium-low, add the onions and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, about 15 minutes. Add the white wine, 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt, scraping the caramelized bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Return the beef and its juices to the pot and bring to a boil. Cover, place in the oven and cook until the beef is tender, about 2 1/2 to 3 hours.
• Transfer the beef and 1/4 of the onions to a large plate. Purée the remaining onions and cooking liquid in a blender with the mustard and yogurt, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Return the beef and the reserved onions to the cooking pot and stir in the sauce.
• Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté until tender. Season with salt, and add to the pot. If you choose, serve over buttered egg noodles.

CHEF JOHN'S CLASSIC BEEF STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Season beef generously with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat until nearly smoking. Stir in beef; cook, stirring constantly, for 6-7 minutes, until liquid evaporates and meat browns. Remove meat from the pan and set aside.
• Stir butter, mushrooms and onions into the pan; cook and stir over medium heat until the vegetables are lightly browned. Add garlic and stir for 30 seconds. Stir in flour; cook for 1-2 minutes until incorporated.
• Stir in wine and 1 cup of stock, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Bring to a simmer, cook for 3-4 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
• Return beef to the pan. Stir in remaining cup of stock; bring to a simmer and cook on low heat for about 1 hour with the lid on, until the beef is tender and the sauce is thick. Stir every 20 minutes.

STEAK STROGANOFF

Steps:

• Heat a dry 10" skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high. Rub steak with 1 Tbsp. oil, then season all over with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Cook, turning every 2 minutes and making sure to get color on the fat cap, until browned on all sides and medium-rare (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register 120°F), 10-15 minutes. Transfer steak to a plate. Pour off oil from skillet, leaving crispy bits behind.
• Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in same skillet over medium-high. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and beginning to crisp, 6-8 minutes. Add garlic, season with 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper, and continue to cook until mushrooms are well browned and garlic is fragrant, 3-4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain and return to pot. Add butter, lemon zest, and lemon juice; season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Stir brandy and 1/2 cup water in a small bowl. Add to mushroom mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, then add cream, Worcestershire, and mustard and stir to combine. The heat of the pan will reduce and thicken the sauce slightly-if it doesn't, cook over medium-low heat for about 1 minute. Stir in sour cream until combined and warmed through.
• Slice steak against the grain into 1/2"-thick slices. Divide noodles among plates. Top with steak, creamed mushrooms, and dill, then season with a few cranks of pepper.
