I can't eat Bacon/lardons/salt pork
>>20442135
me, it's tasty. Mine always has some flavor too dominant whether it's onion or wine, I just need something as a baseline that I can tailor according to my taste.

I do this in a Dutch oven but anything that can hold the volume you want will work. You can simmer on the stove top or run it in the oven at like 325. If you like it thicker you can add bread crumbs with the mater paste, or brown up some flour with the veg before doing the wine. Wala

I like this one. I saved it back when 4 qt. Staub dutch ovens went on sale. I don't use water but more wine and broth.

You are missing MSG or Marmite.

Saved both, thanks. I have all the ingredients except the broth. Is Better than Bouillon or cubes acceptable or must I buy the boxed stuff/make my own?

>> No.20442336

>>20442317
Hi Glen and Friends. I do use MSG a lot (usually chicken powder) but never tried Marmite.

>> No.20442347

>>20442317
I used to use Marmite, but have since switched to Colatura di Alici. But for stew I would opt for Marmite, or if you can't get it then use MSG which you should be able to find in the spice section of your grocery store along with half a porter or stout.

>> No.20442385

>>20442332
You can make broth from both I don't knw about the cubes, but the Better than Bullion says you can dissolve one teaspoon in 8 ounces of boiling water.

>> No.20442485

>>20442332
I make my own, veg stock in particular is easy. But cubes works, recipes like this are so strong in flavor all over the place that it doesn't make a huge difference, you're not leaning on the broth that much. I also forgot to say herbs in my greentext recipe even though they're important and I use a ton. If you're using dry herbs put them in with the garlic or if you're using fresh put them in after the tomato paste. Rosemary and thyme mandatory, savory if you've got it.

>> No.20442643

>>20442485
Gotcha. I only have dry herbs currently, the fresh ones are expensive and when I try to grow them they always die.
