Hey Guys!

It’s the Stew Recipe I promised you. We’re back to our normally scheduled designated idiot cook as Ryan’s back from his vacation. Some of you may have noticed this Recipe is going up Tuesday instead of the Monday’s we’d originally decided. This is going to be the normal day from now, so I have time to get you guys a picture to see what food we’re talking about. [Hey look, no picture, Ryan is lazy]

House Keeping out of the way, now it’s time for a recipe that is a Family favorite. Stews are fantastic because even tho this comes witha  recipe, they’re really intended to let you use just about any ingredients you have left over from other dishes. This is one of those dishes that is completely open for manipulation, regardless of the instructions.

Argentinian Beef Stew Recipe:

tsp = teaspoon

Tbsp = Tablespoon

lbs = Pounds

Mince = chop into very small pieces

Diced = You chop the thing into roughly square like shapes

Cubed = Actually what it says, cut the ingredients into rough cubes, much bigger than diced

Sliced = Cut into thin broad strips (usually circles)

Chopped = to cut into small pieces with repeated blows

Saute = cook with oil

Fold = Mix the ingredients by scooping the bottom of the mix onto the top of the mix.

Reserve = Hold on/Don’t discard. Usually a liquid that is normally considered waste.
