I eat merely to put food out of my mind. |

This Recipe for Polenta With Beef & Sausage Stew is one of thousands in the Recipes-to-go Beef Cookbook.
“Another article of cuisine that offends the bowels of unused Britons is garlic. Not uncommonly in southern climes an egg with a shell on is the only procurable animal food without garlic in it. Flatulence and looseness are the frequent results.” |
| Dr. T. K. Chambers, A Manuel of Diet In Health and Disease (1875) |

After all the trouble you go to, you get about as much actual "food" out of eating an artichoke as you would from licking 30 or 40 postage stamps. |

Food Tip |
This special feeling towards fruit, its glory and abundance, is I would say universal.... We respond to strawberry fields or cherry orchards with a delight that a cabbage patch or even an elegant vegetable garden cannot provoke. |

Herb Tip |
Cut the beef into 1/2-inch cubes. Remove casing from the sausage
and cut the meat into 1-inch pieces.
Chop garlic and parsley together until almost pureed.
Cut the mushrooms into thin slices; or use 1/2 oz dried mushrooms
and soak them in 1/2 cup lukewarm water for 15 minutes. Drain, saving
the water, and chop the mushrooms.
Combine olive oil, butter, and salt pork in a saucepan; heat. Add
onions and saute slowly until medium brown. Add beef and sausage and
brown for 10 minutes. Add garlic and parsley, black pepper and bay
leaf. Stir and cook for 10 minutes. Add wine, stir, cover, and
simmer for 10 minutes. Add celery, carrot, tomatoes and mushrooms.
Stir and cook for 10 minutes longer. Add hot water and water from
dried mushrooms if any. Stir, cover, and simmer for 40 minutes.
Grate a little nutmeg over the top and simmer, uncovered, for 10
minutes longer. Test beef for doneness; taste for salt and add if
necessary, but salt pork may have added enough.
Divide the hot polenta among 4 to 6 warm plates.
Serve the stew and gravy over polenta. Enjoy a bottle of
Valpolicella with it.
