LOW SODIUM BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Cut and cube the meat to bite size pieces. Mix (coat) with flour, pepper and Italian seasoning.

• Cook the meat until browned on all sides.
• Add the beef broth and wine to the instant pot and use a flat bottom spatula to deglaze and scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Add the remaining ingredients except for cornstarch and water.
• Cover and lock the lid on the instant pot. Ensure steam valve is closed.
• Set with manual button for 35 minutes, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes before doing a quick release of valve.
• Immediately after opening the pot, mix together the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl and stir into the stew until thickened.

SLOW COOKER GUINNESS BEEF STEW WITH HORSERADISH CREAM

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the beef and 2 tablespoons flour. Season generously with salt and pepper and toss to coat. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil over medium-high. Working in batches, add the beef and let it brown on two sides, about 2 minutes per side. Add a bit more oil if the meat sticks. (You can brown it on more than two sides if you have time, but two sides is enough to build flavor and texture.) Transfer the browned beef to a bowl or plate.
• Make the gravy: Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Add the garlic, dried shiitakes (if using), tomato paste, brown sugar, cocoa, onion powder, caraway seeds and espresso powder. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is fragrant and evenly blended, 1 to 2 minutes. (Reduce the heat to low or remove from the heat temporarily if the bottom of the pan threatens to burn.) Add the remaining 1/3 cup flour and cook, stirring and scraping constantly, until the mixture forms a thick, dry paste, about 1 minute. Add the beer and broth. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, whisking constantly to scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Let it boil until it is smooth and noticeably thickened, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
• Add the beef and any juices, the thyme, potatoes and root vegetables to a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Add the gravy and stir to combine. Cover and cook on low until the beef and vegetables are tender, about 8 hours.
• When ready to serve, add the vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice. Taste, and season with more salt, pepper and lemon juice, if necessary. (If the stew tastes flat, add more lemon juice first, then more salt and pepper; acid is key to making it taste lively. It may need a surprising amount of salt, especially if you have used unsalted or low-salt stock.) Discard the thyme sprigs.
• Make the horseradish sour cream: Stir together the sour cream, horseradish and scallions in a small bowl. Season with salt. Serve stew in low bowls with a spoonful of the horseradish sour cream on top.

BEEF STEW SCENTED WITH HORSERADISH

Steps:

• Pat the meat dry, sprinkle with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper and dredge in flour.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot and ripping, add half the meat and brown, and then remove to plate. Repeat with the second batch of meat. Once all the meat is evenly browned, reduce the heat a bit and add another drizzle of oil if necessary. Then add the onions, garlic and bay and cook to soften, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir a minute. Then stir in the beer and reduce by half, a minute or 2 more. Add the Worcestershire, stock, horseradish and beef. Add just enough water to surround the meat and partially cover. Simmer over medium-low heat for 2 hours, until very tender. Cool and store in the fridge for a make-ahead meal.
• To serve, quarter the potatoes, cover with water in a medium pot and bring to boil. Salt the water and cook to just-tender, 10 to 12 minutes, tops. Drain and return to the hot pot. Add the butter and parsley and stir to melt the butter.
• Place a small pile of buttered potatoes in each shallow bowl, top with stew and garnish with watercress leaves. Serve with pumpernickel or sourdough bread.
• Cook's Note: When storing bread in your kitchen for a few days, wrap tightly in plastic to keep tender, and crisp in a hot oven. Do not refrigerate.

SLOW COOKER BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Toss the beef with the paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Coat in flour and shake off any excess. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook undisturbed until it begins to brown, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook, turning the beef as needed, until mostly browned, about 3 minutes more. Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the beef to the insert of a 6-quart slow cooker; add the potatoes, mushrooms, carrots and onions and stir to combine.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the tomato paste and stir until the oil begins to turn brick-red, about 1 minute. Add the flour and wine and whisk until thick (it's OK if there are some lumps). Add the beef broth, thyme, caraway if using, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and bring to a simmer, whisking; continue simmering and whisking until the gravy is smooth and thick, about 4 minutes.
• Pour the gravy into the slow cooker, cover and cook on low for 8 hours. The meat and vegetables should be tender.
• Season with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley. Serve the stew in bowls with dollops of sour cream and a sprinkle of paprika.

LOW SALT HORSERADISH BEEF STEW CROCK POT

Steps:

• Cut roast into 1 inch cubes and place in large bowl.
• Cut potatos into 1 inch cubes and place in the same large bowl.
• Cut baby carrots in half to make them bite sized then you guessed it, place in the large bowl.
• Next place the chopped celery and onion into the bowl then mix it up and pour the meat and veggie mix into large crock pot.
• Now take remaining ingredients and mix in a small bowl or shaker. Shaker works best.
• Drizzle evenly over the top of the meat mixture in the crock pot.
• Cook on low for 8-10 hours then eat. I prefer 10 hours to make it extra tender but it's done in 8 if you can't wait.
• Additional comments: You can add other ingredients or spices that you like but this just doesn't need it. If you like corn , a can could be added 1 hour prior to being done. For those that REALLY like horseradish like me you can use one of the big jars or 2 small ones. Mmm Mmmm.
